Megan Fox: I'm not a tigress like Angelina Jolie

Megan Fox has said that comparing her to Angelina Jolie is completely unrequited.

The ‘Jennifer’s Body’ star has been frequently compared to the Tomb Raider star owing to their similar looks and penchant for wild statements.

However, the ‘Transformers’, star has insisted that they are poles apart.

“People compare me to Angelina Jolie, and she’s so serious and stoic. I’m the opposite,” Contactmusic quoted Megan, 23, as saying.

“I’m not a tigress like Angelina. Of course, people want me to be. But I want to be the contradiction of that,” she added.

Megan - who was caught in a furore after she compared ‘Transformers’ director Michael Bay to Nazi party leader Adolf Hitler - blamed the comparisons with Jolie for people taking her too seriously.

“When I do interviews, I say things that I think are hysterical. But because we live in a world of sound bites, you’re not allowed to have a sense of humour.

“Sarcasm doesn’t translate in print at all. And neither does self-deprecating humour,” she said.

Megan also said that she had doubts about her own acting skills, unlike Oscar-winner Angelina.

“I don’t know if I’m talented, I don’t know what I can do or can’t do. I had no skills at all. As a child, I had it in my head that I was supposed to be doing this, and then I did it. But I didn’t know what I was doing,” she told the New York Times newspaper.
