MEGAN Fox is not including her sex symbol status in the reinvention of her image.
The actress as put on weight, taken on more diverse roles and is having tattoos removed in order to boost her career but she insists she still happy to use sex to sell herself on screen.
“I don’t really feel strongly about it one way or the other,” says Megan, 25, on her popularity among male audiences.
“In reality, there are a lot of guys whose initial attraction to a girl is mostly sexual so I don’t feel that’s an outrageous thing to portray in a movie.”
Fox recently revealed how she is a massive gamer and likes nothing better than to blow away her fellow cyber warriors whenever she gets the chance.
“I have Halo: Reach. I have a complete addiction to that game. It is sick,” she said.
“I play online mostly and (other gamers) have no idea. They make fun of my gamer tag too because it is funny. They are all a bunch of guys and it is clear that I am a girl so they make fun of my name, and they have no idea they are making fun of me.”

Megan Fox has every intention of becoming a mother — just not right now.
The 25-year-old actress, who wed Brian Austin Green in Hawaii in June 2010, recently spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about her desire to start a family.
“I absolutely want biological children,” she said. (She co-parents Green’s 9-year-old son Kassius with ex Vanessa Marcil.)
“I’ve always wanted kids. It’s just about the timing,” the Friends With Kids star explained.
The primary reason she and Green have waited to start a family, Fox says, is because they want to be financially stable.
“I have it in my mind about what amount of money I want in the bank so that I can protect that child’s future, and really protect it, so that kid never struggles,” she said. “Once I feel safe with that, then I’ll have kids.”

Megan Fox got tired of hearing, “Eat a cheeseburger!”
The 25-year-old actress showed off her newfound shapely figure last month in L.A., but how did she acquire those healthy curves? She ditched Veganism!
“For a year and a half, until about four months ago, I followed a strict vegan diet based on raw fruits and vegetables,” she told Amica magazine, as excerpted by the Daily Mail. “No bread, no sugar and coffee. But I had lost too much weight.”
In March, Fox’s trainer Harley Pasternak addressed the actress’ then super-slim physique. “Believe it or not she has this really fast metabolism,” he told Hollywoodlife.com. “With her it’s really about she’s eating enough of the right things. People thought ‘Oh she must be anorexic,’ but she’s far from that!”
In fact, Pasternak said the Jennifer’s Body star struggled to gain weight.
So how did she put on a few healthy pounds? “Now, I eat a bit of everything,” she told Amica magazine, adding that she still trains three times a week with Pasternak.

After being criticized in the past for being too skinny, a curvier Megan Fox has been spotted on the set of her new movie and has spoken out about her weight gain.
Megan Fox may be losing her Marilyn Monroe tattoo, but she says she’s been trying to gain weight. The actress was spotted in brown leather shorts and a black tank top on the set of her new movie This is Forty looking curvier than she had in the past.

“People thought, ‘Oh she must be anorexic,’ but she’s far from that,” her trainer Harley Pasternak said. “Believe it or not she has this really fast metabolism, so her training is all about body toning and sculpting. With her it’s really about whether she’s eating enough of the right things.”
In fact, he said she “gets frustrated at times” because she needs to put on weight.
The Jennifer’s Body actress recently told the Italian magazine Amica that she put on weight after she quit her strict vegan diet.
“For a year and a half, until about four months ago, I followed a strict vegan diet based on raw fruits and vegetables, no bread, sugar and coffee,” she said. “But I had lost too much weight. So now I eat a bit of everything. I train three times a week doing circuit training with my trainer Harvey Pasternak.”
Fox also confessed to Fox News she didn’t have the healthiest diet.
“I just stopped eating,” Fox said. “I don’t eat very healthy anyway — I have a serious sugar tooth, so now I eat red-velvet cake before I go to bed every night, and if you eat meals later, you’ll put on weight faster, so I had dinner at 10 p.m.”
The 25-year-old actress revealed she also had to put on weight back in 2008 for Transformers director Michael Bay. “I’d lost a lot of weight and got really scrawny but I was told I had to put on a size for Transformers because Michael doesn’t like skinny girls.”

Gentlemen may prefer blondes — but Megan Fox would now prefer to have her giant Marilyn Monroe tattoo erased from her right forearm.
The 25-year-old star confirmed to Italian fashion magazine Amica that she is in the process of removing (via laser treatments) the talked-about portrait of the Hollywood legend from her famous body.
“I’m removing it,” Fox says. “She was a negative person, she was disturbed, bipolar. I do not want to attract this kind of negative energy in my life.” (Indeed, the notoriously troubled Monroe died in 1962 at age 36 of a drug overdose.)
But the Transformers bombshell has plenty of other body art staying on — with over nine other tattoos, including a quote in honor of her Passion Play costar Mickey Rourke on her ribcage, a tribal tattoo on her left wrist and another quote on her shoulder.
“Who knows, maybe I’ll remove the others too, but the laser hurts.”
Fox also fesses up to removing, like so many young women before her, a naval piercing.
“I did it when I was 16-years-old because I was a fan of Britney Spears,” she explains. “The only time I tried to imitate someone else. But then I thought it was tacky and so I removed it when I turned 20.”

Megan Fox is diving headfirst into her role in the upcoming comedy This Is Forty.
The 25-year-old actress shared a behind-the-scenes photo with costars Chris O’Dowd, 31, and Jason Segel, 31, on Facebook Saturday, calling them “two very handsome, very tall, very funny men.”
Though Fox showed off her healthier new curves on Wednesday, she kept her figure hidden while posing underwater in the pool.
The Judd Apatow flick, which revolves around Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann’s characters from the 2007 smash Knocked Up, also stars Melissa McCarthy, John Lithgow, Maude Apatow and Ava Sambora.
“Megan is hilarious,” Rudd, 42, recently told E! News. “I don’t know if people don’t realize that, but she is really really funny.”
