Not only is Megan Fox on the prowl, but now she’s saying that she wants to date Angelina Jolie.
When asked if she has a crush on Angelina, Megan said, “Absolutely. Every time a relationship ends, I say, ‘If I could just be Angelina’s girlfriend, I would be so happy.’ I love Angelina Jolie. She’s someone I admire and look up to. She’s my favorite actress in Hollywood. I just love that she’s incredibly honest, and I feel that she’s not afraid to be herself. She tells you exactly what’s on her mind.”
The “Transformers” star also says that she doesn’t have any actress friends in Hollywood. She says, “I don’t have any friends who are actresses. I actually only had one girlfriend growing up. Most of my friends were boys. I was such a tomboy.”
She closes the interview talking about her pet pig that she was forced to give away. She adds, “I moved house and there was just no room for him, so I had to find him a new home. It broke my heart because I love that pig. I still miss him but he’s very happy where he is.”
Think Angelina would hook up with Megan for Brad to watch?
The 30-second clip features the actress and UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador, 34, speaking about refugees. She’ll also sit down with Anderson Cooper Thursday to discuss the same topic.
“Please don’t turn away. Refugees are the most vulnerable people on earth. Every day, they are fighting to survive,” she says. “They deserve our respect. Please do not forget them. Remember them on this day. World Refugee Day.”
Angelina Jolie celebrated her 34th birthday on June 4. But while she should have been relaxing with beau Brad Pitt and their six kids, she was instead being forced to watch her back. Just days earlier, Hollywood producer Dan Lin announced that he was planning a new installment of Angie’s Tomb Raider series, which turned the actress into a star and has grossed a whopping $431 million worldwide. But he doesn’t seem to be considering Angie for the lead this time around — because, he confessed, she’s simply too old.
“It’s a great origin story that we’re going to tell,” said Lin, who recently produced Terminator Salvation. “So it’s a younger Lara Croft.” Anyone in particular in mind for the lead role? Transformers star Megan Fox, he noted, was a “no-brainer.”
No wonder: Megan, a dark-haired beauty with full lips and an edgy reputation, has often been compared to Angelina. But Angie isn’t flattered by the comparison — or the suggestion that Megan, 23, may be ready to replace her. “Angie is not thrilled about turning 34, to put it mildly,” says a friend. “In fact, she’s panicking a little. She feels that her age is starting to undercut her choice of film roles — and it annoys her that Megan Fox is being touted as the ‘new Angelina.’”
It started out as a very special birthday for Angelina Jolie — a surprise celebration at her rented mansion on Long Island, N.Y., featuring all six of her children, fresh flowers from the garden, a homemade cake — and her partner, Brad Pitt, who had put aside his problems with her and flown in from Los Angeles just for the June 4 party. “Brad made an effort to be with Angie,” says a close friend of the couple’s. “He was really hoping they would get along and enjoy themselves.” But, while Brad did go to a lot of trouble for Angelina’s 34th — presenting her with a specially commissioned painting of their family, as well as lingerie from Angelina’s favorite store, Agent Provocateur — it wasn’t long before the troubled couple erupted in a fight over Brad’s ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston. “Things were going fine, and then Angie started accusing Brad of meeting Jen in LA,” says an associate. “It turned into a massive blowup, which left Brad more disillusioned than ever.”
According to another pal, Brad didn’t stick around to argue. “He told her straight out that he’s had enough and was out of there,” the pal reveals. Four days later, Brad was spotted visiting Angelina on the Washington, D.C., set of her film Salt. But the pal says they’re just going through the motions for appearance’s sake. “Angelina has cried a lot of tears over Brad.” Another confidante agrees: “This split has been simmering for months, and unless something drastic happens, it is going to boil over very soon. The only thing keeping Brad from officially walking out is their six kids.”
It’s official: Angelina Jolie is the most powerful celebrity in the world.
So says Forbes magazine’s annual Celebrity 100 list, released today.
The star — who earned $27 million last year — knocked Oprah Winfrey out of the top spot, which the talk show host has held for the past two years.
Winfrey earned a whopping $275 million last year, but Jolie — who was No. 3 in 2008 — still got more press.
Madonna came in No. 3 this year thanks to her Hard Candy tour and all the media coverage surrounding her split from Guy Ritchie and “affair of the heart” with Alex Rodriguez, which Us Weekly first reported.
Beyonce Knowles earned $87 million and ranked No. 4, while Tiger Woods came in at No. 5 with $110 million — making him the highest-paid athlete in the world (despite having to sit out for eight months with a knee injury last year).
Jennifer Aniston came in at No. 8, earning $25 million — and beating ex Brad Pitt, who ranked No. 9 (but took home $28 million).
Barack Obama became the first active president to appear in the list, coming in at No. 49.
Also in the rankings: Ryan Seacrest (No. 44 with $38 million), Miley Cyrus (No. 29) and Taylor Swift (No. 69.)
