Fashion Faceoff- Rosie Huntington-Whiteley vs. Megan Fox

Hannah Weil — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 07:10:55 PDT

Megan Fox solidified her bombshell status with Michael Bay's Transformers franchise, but when the third installment - and one of this Summer's most anticipated blockbusters - opens June 29, Shia LaBeouf will have a new leading lady at his side. The gorgeous Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is stepping in, and taking on her first big-screen role as the beautiful-cum-tough girl lead. We realize, of course, that both women elicit a jaw-dropping reaction when they step on the red carpet, but in honor of Transformers: Dark of the Moon's opening tomorrow, we're asking you to pick a favorite. Will you choose former Victoria's Secret model Rosie's English-rose beauty, or Megan's dark, just-a-little-dangerous sexiness? Click through for 25 of Megan and Rosie's hottest red carpet styles, and decide who takes this style battle.

Megan Fox Not Sexy and Nurturing Enough For Transformers Role, Says Shia LaBeouf

Tara Sharp — Fri, 03 Jun 2011 11:15:00 PDT

Star of the Transformers trilogy Shia LaBeouf says Megan Fox was too into "woman-empowerment" stuff to fit Michael Bay's movie-making style, specifically, that his films appeal to a "16-year-old sexuality." So, says LaBeouf, the director chose Victoria's Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley to take over the film's love interest role because she was willing to show some skin while also providing LaBeouf's character with her nurturing, maternal instincts. Apparently Megan also being a sexy underwear model wasn't enough, since Shia adds that Bay wanted a "domestic, eggs-in-the-morning" style over Fox's "cold biker chick" character.

I'll take this with a grain of salt since it's LaBeouf, not Bay, making the comments. But there are a lot of interesting takeaways from these little nuggets. Namely, that "sexiest woman alive" Megan Fox wasn't game for reprising the standard boobs-out action movie love interest role that made her famous, and that Bay was essentially looking for a Stepford wife character in the flick. What do you make of all this?

Transformers: Dark of the Moon Teaser - Where's the LaBeouf?

Becky Kirsch — Thu, 09 Dec 2010 05:31:07 PST

When I noticed that the first teaser for Transformers: Dark of the Moon was out, I got excited for a glimpse of Shia LaBeouf vs. the Robots, round three. I would have even settled for a montage of explosions and pointed looks set to epic music with no dialogue. Unfortunately, the preview doesn't have any footage of LaBeouf, or any of the franchise's major actors. Instead, it's two and a half minutes explaining what "really" happened when Neil Armstrong and Apollo 11 landed on the moon. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out where the trailer is going: apparently Armstrong actually discovered the first transformers and never told anyone about it.

Obviously, the premise is absurd, but nobody's expecting realism from a Transformers movie. What I was hoping for was something to get me preemptively excited for a film that won't hit theaters until next Summer, but this trailer is a letdown. Maybe I'm being too harsh though; check it out for yourself and tell me how you feel about it when you

Video: Heidi Montag’s Combat Training For Transformers

Harry Potter Works Its Magic on the Box Office

BuzzSugar — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 05:30:25 PDT

It may be darker than ever, but Harry Potter still brings the magic at the box office. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince worked its wizardry on audiences to the tune of nearly $160 million for its first five days in the theater, with $79.5 million of that coming over the weekend.

That's not quite as strong as the five-day opening for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen last month (that movie pulled in $201.2 million in its first five days), but it's the best tally yet for a Harry Potter movie.

The other big story of this weekend's box office is the fall of Bruno. Last weekend's box office winner pulled in just $8.4 million this week, finishing in fourth place. That put it behind second-place Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, which brought in $17.7 million. Transformers kept up the pace with a third-place tally of $13.8 million.

In indie news, 500 Days of Summer had a solid debut with almost $840,000 from just 27 theaters. It'll be interesting to see how that movie holds up when it expands into many more theaters this weekend.

Trend Alert: Mesh Flesh

FabSugar — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 15:00:22 PDT

Check out hotties Megan in Herve Leroux, Blake in Roberto Cavalli, and Rihanna in Alexander Wang looking sexy to the max in mesh flesh frocks. There's something about mesh inserts that evoke a daring, mysterious vibe and I like it. This detailing isn't for the faint-hearted; when donning such a bold embellishment, brace yourself for hard stares and the occasional catcall. You ready?

Does Michael Bay's Portrayal of Women Bug You?

BuzzSugar — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 08:15:51 PDT

It's no secret that Michael Bay loves to put extremely sexy women in his movies. When it comes to the Transformers movies, though, the gratuitous way he shoots Megan Fox seems a bit over-the-top, even for him.

Bay recently told reporters that it's "for the young boys" and Fox says says the treatment of women as sexual objects in film is part of what must be done "if you want to make movies that people want to see."

So does Bay's portrayal of women ever bother you? Or is it just good sexy fun?
