Actress Megan Fox says people anticipate a shallowness and a lack of self-awareness about her because of how she looks.
The "Transformers" star, however, says she is done fighting the image people have formed of her, reported Female First.
"You know how women that are always cast in James Bond movies are pin ups but their job in the movies is always being a marine biologist or neuroscientist? I think people react to me that way. Like, 'Right, she's studying neurobiology.' But I am really interested in that.
"I'm not going to keep fighting the image that exists. People anticipate a shallowness [from me]. They anticipate a self-centeredness and a lack of self-awareness. It doesn't matter what I say, or how eloquent a speaker I may be, or how positive my intentions may be. I'm going to be made in what people desire me to be," she said.
