NewsCat:

And how did Charlize Theron move into the serious actress category? By dressing up as an ugly chick.

Same for Nicole Kidman.

Cameron Diaz has yet to win an Oscar (has she even been nominated?). I agree that she's a good actress, but she has yet to receive widespread adulation and recognition that a beautiful woman gets for playing someone ugly. That's an instant Oscar.

The one thing I want to point out is there are actresses who started out as "the Hot Chick" and became real actresses. Cameron Diaz (remember her as the Hot Girl in The Mask) and Charlize Theron. But the road is also littered with also-rans like Estella Warren (Planet of the Apes). Megan Fox's future is undetermined at this point. What she needs to do (if she hasn't already) is start her own production company and find projects for herself. It's the only way she's going to get quality roles. But she can't wait for those Oscar-worthy scripts to come to her because it'll never happen.

J, I read the letter you linked to and find no evidence in it that Fox either “treats people bad” or “is a mean bitch”. As far as I can see, the (anonymous) cast-members merely dole out cheap shots about her “cringe-able” acting, “talking trailer trash” and tattoos of which they disapprove. They also deride her for and “posing like a porn star” and suggest, with what honestly seems to me to be ill-disguised resentment, that the porn business would be a good career option. There is no basis in fact for these mean-spirited jibes that add no factual information to help the reader form an assessment of Fox’s character, but give a very clear idea of the personality traits of the writers. What particularly stood out for me is the fact that they chastise Fox for never smiling and being the “grump on the set” – because, you know, women are obliged to radiate sunshine and happiness and never bother others with such insignificant details as their feelings, opinions and experiences. I think it is evident from Fox’s interviews that she is less than content with her role as professional hot girl – quite probably when being “sprayed with glycerine” by contemptuous co-workers she indeed does not feel like smiling much. I know I wouldn’t.

Shes hot as hell but did anyone else read all the stuff about how nasty she was to people on the Transformers sets? The letter by some of the workers on staff speaks for itself.

She is a mean bitch who treats people bad. It will come back to bite her one day.

Jade: Sorry, that's a Sarcasm Fail on my part. I was just making the point that a lot of the big female stars (Fox predecessor Jolie being the main example) stay in the public eye because they keep feeding press opportunities for high-profile relationship dramz with high-profile male celebrities, not because they keep making good or interesting movies. The tame Fox-Austin-Green relationship doesn't feed into that sexist industry standard. That's not an endorsement of that standard, just a comment on what most female stars have to do to stay "relevant." (Like: Seduce the biggest married celebrity in the world, for example). Right now, Fox's relationship with Brian Austin Green actually gives Fox some more leeway to craft her own image---because the tabloids can't just tirelessly report on the sexy dates she's going on with sexy male stars. But I can't think of many other female stars who have stayed in the headlines without relationship-dramz being a big part of that.

If she would keep her tongue in her mouth and stop posing like a trashy porn star, get some acting lessons, and stop saying stupid things... people might like her. Oh, and her agent is the one who started the Angelina rumors we all know it... that didn't help her much either esp lying about it. She needs to come clean about that, and apologize to christian people and "middle America" because Meggy, you aren't smart. Funny how she's always trying to cover up the fact that she can't act. The fact is... we just don't like her because she's a stupid airhead. Angelina Jolie is better looking and is an intelligent, classy woman. The original is always better.

I don't get what the big deal is about this chick. She's cute but, that's all I would call her. Her face is full of botox and collagen and she poses like a trashy porn star with those stupid tongue out poses and the other nasty pics. Doesn't she realize this is why people think she's a whore? That... and pretending to be lesbian or whatever? She just looks like an ordinary girl who has on a ton of makeup. I think she is hyped up and wants people to think she is beautiful like Angelina Jolie lol, but she's just kind of blah. Funny how she thinks people are jealous lmao. Angelina Jolie is the most beautiful woman in the world and we LIKE her because she's a class act. Sorry.

"right. marry someone more successful than brian austin green. is it mean that i keep making fun of brian austin green?" Wait, really?! I thought this was a feminist blog...why am I reading that a woman should marry someone "more successful"? Making fun of brian austin green is one thing, buying into the patriarchial paradigm that we need to marry "successful" men is a totally different thing.
