Megan Fox Refuses To Be the Next Lara Croft!

Megan Fox hates the idea of being the next Angelina Jolie or even being compared to her. Recently the ‘Transformers’ star turned down the chance to be the next Lara Croft.

“The offer has been on the table for Megan for a while but she’s reluctantly turned it down. She’s the logical choice to play Lara and she loves the character but the comparison with Angelina is too much”, she said. So the role will be taken by some unknown actress.
The Fox versus Jolie story is not something new. Last October, Fox blamed the media of trying to put her “in a box”.
“The media has to package you and sell you somehow and sell their magazines so everybody has to be ‘the new’ or ‘the next’ someone or something. If I am not a party girl and they can’t sell me as that, and I’m not an Oscar winning actress and they can’t sell me as that, then they have to package me somehow and for some reason they latched on to the Angelina thing because I have a lot of tattoos. It was a way to market me and it was a way to sell their magazines or get hits on their blogs — because it makes people uncomfortable if they are unable to put you in a box”, the 23 years old actress said.

Nooooooo, YOU marketed yourself as the next Angelina Jolie, and I remember an interview where you said your agent was claiming you as the next Angie. You got a lot of backlash for it, and you decided to say that "everyone else" was calling you that. YOU wanted attention for it, along with all those dumb quotes. You can't call yourself the next ANGELINA JOLIE, and expect people to believe that.
