Introducing The New "Megan Fox"

Nothing like a former Victoria's Secret lingerie model to get Optimus primed. Good thing they did not select a top pornstar to take the challenge.

Multiple sources confirm to E! News that model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley will be replacing the MIA Megan Fox as Shia LaBeouf's love interest in Transformers 3.

"She's accepted the offer, and I think they're just waiting for her to get her work visa since she's British," says a source close to the production.

And, as usual when it comes to a Michael Bay explosionfest, hotness wins out over talent...

See, Huntington-Whiteley has never acted before. But she did work with Transformers helmer Bay last year on a Victoria's Secret commercial—and apparently the two hit it off.

"Michael Bay has flown her out here a few times to screen test," says another production insider.

"She has absolutely zero acting experience, so we'll see how that goes. But he likes her, and that's all that matters."

Which is more than can be said for Fox, whose relationship with the notoriously prickly director publicly deteriorated, with her comparing him to Hitler.

Meanwhile, sources confirm that Huntington-Whiteley will be playing a completely new character, not the same role as Fox.

There was no immediate comment from Bay, Huntington-Whiteley or Paramount.

Aside from Huntington-Whiteley, Bay was reportedly considering a number of other lookers for the part, including Miranda Kerr, Vanessa Hudgens and Bar Refaeli.

Principal shooting is set to kick off in July. Aside from Huntington-Whiteley, other newcomers to the cast will include some badass new robots along with humans Patrick Dempsey, John Malkovich, Frances McDormand and Ken Jeong.

Megan Quits Transformers

Megan Fox Left ‘Transformers’ Because of Michael Bay’s Abusive Ways
Director was not happy with the star’s looks, made no attempt at hiding it

Speculation is starting to build up as to why Megan Fox has decided to leave the “Transformers” franchise.

This week, a rumor that had been making the rounds for months was confirmed, much to the disappointment of true fans: Megan Fox had left “Transformers” and would not be appearing in the third installment of the franchise. Talk of how director Michael Bay had fired her for being an obnoxious star who’d always shoot off her mouth without thinking of consequences was followed by a statement from the star, saying she’d left of her own accord. More on her departure has emerged and it seems Bay was indeed the one who pushed Fox over the edge.

TheWrap has learned from sources on the set that Megan decided to leave the franchise because she could no longer take Bay’s abuse. The director, known for being very strict and demanding of his stars, reportedly enforces a code on how the actors he works with, especially women, must look and, for one reason or another, Fox no longer fit in it. To make her see that, Bay would often abuse her verbally in front of other members of the staff (this also happened while shooting for “Transformers 2”) and she decided she no longer wanted to go through that again.

“Megan Fox walked away from ‘Transformers 3’ because director Michael Bay was ‘verbally abusive’ toward her and ‘she had enough and decided to get out early,’ an individual close to the actress has told TheWrap. […] It’s no secret that Bay has a reputation for being an extremely controlling filmmaker who can be difficult to work with at times. […] Another individual close to the sequel’s production told TheWrap that Bay wants his actresses to look a certain way, and if they can’t meet his absurd standards of beauty, he gets rid of them’,” the aforementioned movie publication says.

Though the story might be somewhat of an exaggeration, other media outlets also claim that Fox’s departure had something to do with her deteriorating relationship with the director. The Sun, for instance, says Bay felt that Fox was getting too thin and that she was a far cry from her curvy, healthy-looking self in the second film. Given that she was in for some weight loss with the physically demanding scenes in the threequel, Bay asked her to gain some weight, which she refused to do, choosing instead to just leave.

“Megan stormed out after a huge row with Michael Bay. He thinks she has lost too much weight and looks too frail. He wanted her to put on some weight and it all kicked off. The crew don’t think she looks well, let alone the wholesome, curvy star they cast in the first film. She’s going for this gaunt, pale image and it just looks unhealthy,” a source from the production tells the British tab. Right now, though, both Paramount and Fox are standing by their initial story, saying only that the actress is no longer a part of the “Transformers” family.

Fox ready to harm whoever took undressed pic of her

The Scoop
Megan Fox might be known — in part — for being a sex symbol, but don’t even think about snapping an unauthorized photo of her in any state of undress.

Allure magazine interviewed Fox and told her about a blurry topless picture of her that was taken on a cell phone. The image was leaked while she was filming her new independent movie “Passion Play,” in which she plays a circus-sideshow performer who has bird wings.

“If I knew who took this picture, I would personally cause them harm — physical harm,” Fox told Allure. “I’m not a f---ing reality-TV star that’s courting the paparazzi and wants my f---ing picture taken all the time. I’m at my job and I’m trying to play a character and I’m trying to be serious, and this is the sh-- that’s happening to me. It makes me furious.” (Clearly.)

Megan is Breaking up Couples

Megan Fox almost caused a couple to split when a fan told her she was "beautiful" in front of his girlfriend.

The 'Transformers' actress - who is regularly listed as one of the world's most beautiful women - caused an enormous row in Starbucks in West Hollywood, when she was accosted by a male fan who praised her repeatedly whilst his jealous girlfriend watched on.

According to National Enquirer magazine, he said: "You are definitely the most gorgeous woman on earth. You're a perfect 10! I've never seen anyone more beautiful than you."

But before Megan could respond, the mystery man's jealous lover stormed over and shouted at the unsuspecting movie star.

She told the pair: "Why don't you just stand on top of her, you're so close.

"By the way, you're not so perfect! Why don't you admit it - you've had a nose job and a boob job no doubt. Is that right?"

Megan, 23, was clearly unhappy with the scene being caused around her and decided to make her exit.

She told the pair: "I just came here to get a cup of coffee. This is so not worth it!"

As Megan made her way to the exit, the woman shouted to her: "You're really not that hot, honey. and you're certainly no Angelina Jolie!"

Transformer 3 will be the best one yet : LaBeouf

CANNES, France - Shia LaBeouf says the second "Transformers" movie got too big for its own good — but the third one brings the heart back to the franchise.

LaBeouf, who starts work on the next "Transformers" sequel Tuesday, said the third installment will be the best one yet. The new script restores a human element that got lost in the second movie, LaBeouf said.

"When I saw the second movie, I wasn't impressed with what we did," LaBeouf said in an interview Thursday at the Cannes Film Festival, where his finance drama "Wall Street.

Megan willing to strip in Transformer 3

Megan Fox, near the top of several magazine's most beautiful woman list, has announced that she is willing to do full frontal nudity in Transformers 3. Said Fox in an interview in Hollywood, "I don't like the way that the movie ticket sales are going for this one. We should be selling more tickets and bringing in more money. If it will boost our box office for the next movie, I'm willing to do whatever it takes."

"Whatever it takes" was then defined by Fox as removing her clothes.

"I'm sure that seeing my hot, sweaty, glistening body would make those giant robot thingies just stop in their tracks and stare. I mean, that works for most men I meet anyway. They all see to like checking me out, and I'm kind of a tease or flirt about it too."

Fox, who has already gone topless in "Jennifer's Body," added that she does have the hots for someone on their set. "Just the thought of Optimus Prime and that piston pumping power of his makes me wet!"

In conclusion, Fox added that "this nudity would have to be something that moves the story forward, of course. I wouldn't do it just to show off my titties or collect the extra two million in payment that the studio has offered me. It will have to be tasteful."

The announcement that Fox was willing to do full frontal nudity caused a movie that has not even started filming become the biggest selling DVD pre-order in history.

Megan Fox says Prostituting is Exhausting

Megan Fox loves to complain to the press for just about everything, but this specific complaint really caught our eye.

Megan plays a prostitute in her new movie Jonah Hex and admits that playing a hooker is the most "exhausting" and challenging role she's ever had to play.

Megan Fox Wants to Settle Down and Have Children

Speaking about the movie she said, “Just having to try and keep my head above water in a scene with Brolin was a really, really difficult thing to do,” says Megan.

“It was only five days that I filmed and I’ve never been more exhausted filming something.

“It was just hard. I was way out of my league. Everything was over my head. I just tried to stay alive.”

Aside from playing a prostitute, Megan is also shooting Transformers 3 right now, so she's one busy hooker.

Megan is not the Sexiest of them all

It's official: Megan Fox is merely the second most sexy woman in the world, according to FHM's annual analysis of just who its readers consider the pick of international females.

For the second year running, the Transformers "actress" must bow to Girls Aloud warbler Cheryl Cole, as must Victoria's Secret model Marisa Miller, who secured third spot.

Bob, this is Megan. Book me a Cheryl Cole makeover, like right now

Trailing this trio of desirables were Frankie Sandford of girl band The Saturdays, Brit model Keeley Hazell and Twilight star Kristen Stewart.

Seventh place went to Kelly Brook, followed in close order by Adriana Lima, Jessica Alba and footballer Peter Crouch's squeeze Abbey Clancy, who round off the top ten.

FHM explains that Ms Cole "simply left the competition standing in their stilettos, coughing in her sexy dust" in this year's vote.

Her winning credentials include "the body, the eyes, the legs, the cheekbones, the hair, that criminally underexposed cleavage", coupled to her "dominance of TV, magazines and websites across the planet" and the ability to "lose 150 pounds of useless flab" - a nice description of former hubby Ashley Cole.

Jonah Hex Trailer released

Jonah Hex Trailer Finally Released: Josh Brolin, John Malkovich and Megan Fox Heat Up the Screen

The long-awaited trailer for “Jonah Hex” was unveiled this weekend, and it definitely looks hot. If you’re not sure what or who Jonah Hex is, head to your nearest comic book store because that’s where you can catch up on everything Hex related. He’s been around since the 1970’s but just now came to notoriety as a big-screen character.

The basic premise is that he runs around the western frontier during the Civil War era protecting innocent people. He also…of course….wants to get the guys who disfigured his face.

By the way…totally aside… the new movie “Beastly” features a guy that is supposed to be made to look really really ugly, but instead just looks tattooed and hot. The Beastly costumiers need to get a look at Jonah Hex’s face in this movie — THAT is ugly.

Jonah is played by Josh Brolin and looks to be doing a superb job in the trailer. Megan Fox is still just as foxy as always, and John Malkovich plays the terrorist Quentin Turnbull who is Jonah’s oldest enemy.

Jonah Hex will be released on June 18th.
