Motherhood has really changed Megan Fox.
After she and husband Brian Austin Green welcomed their son Noah in September, the “This is 40” actress has not only turned over the bad-girl persona — she is also getting rid of some old ink.
In her bizarre new profile with Esquire about speaking in tongues and the supernatural (more on that later), the tatted-up “Transformers” star tells the magazine she wanted to be like Marilyn Monroe and even has a tattoo of the late actress on her arm, but has now begun the process of having it removed.
“I started reading about her and realized that her life was incredibly difficult. It’s like when you visualize something for your future. I didn’t want to visualize something so negative,” she said.
She then goes on to compare Lindsay Lohan to Monroe.
“She wasn’t powerful at the time. She was sort of like Lindsay. She was an actress who wasn’t reliable, who almost wasn’t insurable…She had all the potential in the world, and it was squandered. I’m not interested in following those footsteps.”
Fox told the men’s magazine she now admires Ava Gardner who “was a broad” who spoke her mind and “had power.”
Besides admiring Gardner, she also admitted to believing in leprechauns, Big Foot and aliens.
“Would you not be so much more interested in finding out that Big Foot existed than in watching a really good movie? I believe in aliens…Loch Ness monster—there’s something to it…There’s the Bell Witch…What distracts me from my reality is Big Foot. They are my celebrities.”
The Esquire profile includes other strange revelations, like when the star admitted to speaking in tongues, something she picked up at 8-years-old while attended a Pentecostal church in Tennessee.
“The energy is so intense in the room that you feel like anything can happen,” she said. “I have seen magical, crazy things happen. I’ve seen people be healed. Even now, in the church I go to, during Praise and Worship, I could feel that I was maybe getting ready to speak in tongues, and I’d have to shut it off because I don’t know what that church would do if I started screaming out in tongues in the back.”
