In a new photo spread for Interview magazine, 24-year-old Megan Fox is barely recognizable: wearing a retro bob wig, she poses suggestively with a lookalike mannequin. The article even notes that Fox asked to keep the doppelganger mannequin's head as a souvenir at the end of the photo shoot.
"I don't want to open my mouth or speak anymore," Fox tells interviewer/actor Zach Galifianakis. "Everything I say becomes scandalous."
Despite her ubiquitous presence (thanks to the first two Transformers films), Fox explains, "I'm one of those people who fiercely guards their privacy, so I hate doing interviews."
She admits, in fact, to lying during interviews to protect herself.
"I have said some things to throw people off the scent of what's really going on in my life. So I have sort of aided the media in printing these misconceptions, which I regret."
Although Fox won't be appearing Transformers 3, she hits US theaters next Friday in Jonah Hex, an action-adventure flick also starring Josh Brolin.
