Megan Fox: Weight Loss and Depression

The Transformers star, Megan Fox, is on the cover of the June UK issue of GQ Magazine. Inside, she revealed that as she has struggled with stardom she began to stress about her career and she wondered if everything was dependent on her good looks. Before she started filming Jennifer’s Body she actually packed on the pounds but then once filiming began she drastically lost weight. She thought this was just because of her role in the film but she knew deep down inside that it was because of depression. She said,
“Really my only job is to look attractive. I was so angry about that, that I went in the opposite direction. I turned into a really butch bull dyke for, like, six months… Then I went in the other direction. From being a giant motorcycle-riding lesbian, I turned into a zombie. I lost, like, 30 pounds.”
She went on to say,
“I was like, ‘I’m losing weight for the movie’. I was telling myself I was being method (method acting), which was so outrageous and ridiculous and not true. “But I ended up getting sick and my hair started falling out and I was like, ‘Oh f**k. I can’t do this’… You lose too much weight, you’re not getting your vitamins, you get sick. I was really skinny. I was depressed.”
Now, Megan has her depression sorted out and she is on the right track mentally when it comes to learning how to deal with the pressures of Hollywood.
