The Transformation Of Megan Fox From 15 To 35 Years Old

Posted by Billy Koelling on Tuesday, June 4, 2024

Fresh-faced and bright-eyed, Megan Fox has "arrived" at age 15 with her first credited role in the Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen film, "Holiday in the Sun." Born in Tennessee and later partly raised in St. Petersburg, Florida (per a 2011 interview with Scott Feinberg), Fox now cringes at her debut feature. In a 2019 Entertainment Tonight interview, Fox re-watched a clip of herself as the rival to Ashley's character, Brianna Wallace, "Ugh, kill me... just smother me or something," she joked, with comedic self-exaggeration.

It was Fox's lifelong dream to be an actor from age 2, per a 2009 profile in The New York Times. "My mom said it was the only thing I ever said I wanted to do. When I was 4 or 5, I watched 'The Wizard of Oz,' and for a year, I asked her to call me Dorothy." After Mama Fox told her "that an actress plays" Dorothy, Fox knew what she wanted to be. 

Quickly typecast as the "queen bee" antagonist, Fox's next major role would be as such an archetype in 2004's Lindsay Lohan vehicle, "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen." Per the Times, Fox observed, "I was always cast as the b***h. The light-haired girl is the sweet leading lady, and the dark [haired] girl is the sexy b***h." Thankfully, her next big role afforded Fox a reprieve from playing the bad girl — and the opportunity to stumble onto a real-life milestone.
