Last night, Friends with Kids (a.k.a., “Half the Bridemaids Cast, Half the Charm“) premiered in New York City. This movie, which was written, produced, and directed by Jennifer Westfeldt (Jon Hamm’s girlfriend), was supposed to be part of Megan Fox’s comeback in a series of supporting roles. She didn’t fare too badly in the trailer of the movie, and the film itself looks promising in an utterly predictable but still somewhat enjoyable, matinee-viewing, romcom sort of way. Of course, Megan plays the “hot chick” in the movie, which is the type of role that she’ll likely never escape. As much as I can root for Megan during her recent PR transformation, I just have to admit that she’s a dreadful actress (watch Passion Play, and you’ll see what I mean). To stay in the business, Megan must stay accessibly pretty because her talents are limited to playing the gorgeous, fluffy characters, but her tweaking might hurt these prospects.
Here are some closeups. I can’t definitively put my finger on what she’s had done other than lots of botox (which she’s denied before) and possible cheek implants. As to the latter, Megan has looked tweaked and catfaced as recently as the past year. I was hoping that she’d go for a more natural look as part of her recent PR transformation, but in these photos, I keep thinking, “Madonna chicken cutlets.” Maybe she’s just suffering from an unfortunate level of blush application.
The “cheek implant” conundrum truly puzzles me because at certain angles, her cheekbones don’t seem as pronounced. You be the judge.

I am convinced the fox has some sort of body and face dysmorphic disorder, along with half of Hollywood. I just don’t understand why she is constantly messing with her face and she is so young!
Must admit though, the way she had cheek-boned her face, it is now looking more like Angelina’s new face.
They both had round/oval faces when younger, but either got refined and squared with age, or they had both used cosmetology to refine nose and cheekbones.
You’re right about her resembling Angelina Jolie, but i suspect it’s because she actually got into plastic surgery with the intention of looking like her. Remember when Megan would feign irritation with people who compared her to Jolie, only to look more and more like Jolie’s doppelganger over time? With every cosmetic procedure (I don’t know exactly how many she’s had, but I’m sure it’s substantial), the resemblance has become more uncanny. If she keeps this up, Jolie will soon look younger than Megan.
Someone make it stop. All these women (and some men) look worse thanks to surgery. Don’t they have stylists? Agents? Publicists? Personal assistants? Hell, family members? Anyone that can tell them this?
I’m an agent (though not on the movie/TV side) and unfortunately I see this all too often. Girls with eating disorders, the constantly messing with their faces, etc. Problem is, if they’re still getting work, they’re still making their agents money and thus, the agents don’t want to say anything and lose the commission. If they mess with their face so much they stop getting work they still won’t get a talking to, they’ll just get dropped. Hooray for Hollywood.
hmmm, interesting! I guess it makes sense. It would be like telling your boss “hey, your face looks jacked now!”
Plastic surgery in Hollywood goes right back to the old days. Most of the ‘beauties’ had major procedures but you wouldn’t know it.
I think these days, with no one to tell them to stop, they just keep going.
What kills me is that with the right surgery/tweek/skill/artistry, a person can look amazing. Instead everyone these days just looks like they were operated on by someone who really hates them.
Are my eyes deceiving me? Because I don’t think she looks bad here…in fact, I think that’s the best she’s looked in months.
Strangely enough, what I find particularly artificial looking here is the over defined eyebrows.
I definitely think its the over done eye brows and that annoying Line of eye shadow leading from her eyebrow to her cheek in a ( ) shape to make her cheeks more defined, other than that it just looks like she lost weight. We just saw pics of her last week I’m sure face surgeries don’t heal that fast.. Even if they do i mean it’s not like she looks horrible like lohan..
I don’t think it is a line of eye shadow though, I think it’s an actual shadow.
I think she just lost some weight, hence the more defined cheekbones..
So looks drastically thinner to me. Not a good look Meg.
I agree she looks like she lost weight + had her make up done to define her cheekbones. Make up can make people’s feature look dramatically altered.
She looks like TV chef Nigella Lawson.
Who is fifty-something. Oh dear…
Also in her lips… you can see how the area above her top lip is puffed out, both the whole area and the rim, and something weird is happening with it while she’s doing the kissyface in the 5th photo.
I’m thinking that in a few years, having ‘plastic surgery face’ is going to be the new normal. It’ll be assimilated into society’s idea/ideal of beauty.
Kind of like what happens with tattoos in various cultures, neck-stretching rings, foot-binding, etc…
ITA. Plastic face is the new normal, which is really weird.
For celebrities and wannabe celebrities, yes, but not quite yet for the average person.
When the “Does _______ looked jacked?” posts stop showing up, then you know it’s happened.
Actually your wrong, if you look at actress getting work it’s the ones that haven’t had anything done, Kristen Stewart, Emma Stone, Dakota Fanning, Carey Mulligan, what roles is Fox getting, small parts playing the girlfriend ,
People don’t mind beauty but when it looks as fake as Megan Fox’s, no one will pay 13 dollars to watch her in a movie, the more people have access to perfection , the more little beauty imperfection will be in demand
I agree. In fact, (nerd alert here) when I was reading the Hunger Games series, I was thinking about how the standards of beauty in Hollywood are beginning to resemble those of the Capitol in the books. I mean, obviously the books take it to a whole different level…. just saying I can see it eventually becoming VERY similar. Fake, fake, fake. The more plastic, the more beautiful.
ITA Marlee. I only see Capitol people now when I see crazy plastic surgery. Next think will be wild colour skin tinting as opposed to just having bright coloured hair.
I think it might be the blush. Like the color and how it’s applied makes it worse.
She gets injections of the new filler, its obvious because her cheeks get full then smaller. Like right now, she looks better than she did a few weeks ago. Like that one pick she did to prove no botox her cheeks had melded into her eyes and it made her look like that Y&R actress that had all that crap done…I forget her name.
Look at her pick from pre-transformers and then now. Cheeks, nose, and lips…all done.
I hate when they act like the public is stupid saying, “no plastic surgery” (fillers aren’t surgery) or “no botox” (juvaderm isn’t botox).
Whatver. She’s looking better because the swellings gone down. Good for her.
She’s had those silly cheek cutlets for a while now, ever since that one premier a year or two back where she was wearing some sort of red dress and her face was dramatically different
I question whether she has had anything done. I know it is really amazing what they do with makeup and perhaps she has a new makeup artist she works with now. I think she looks more mature in her face and that is just natural aging. But who knows. I do think she is a pretty girl though.
Yeah, I don’t think she’s done anything either. A pretty girl with great cheekbones.
so she is trying to eliminate that tacky marilyn tattoo on her arm but now I just noticed another tacky tattoo on her leg – looks awful.
Ew. Why is she doing this to herself?
I know. It’s sad. She has some serious self esteem issues.
She’s had cheek implants for a while … and by the way doesn’t even look like the same person she was before surgery, not at all.
http://bit.ly/yKyEQq
She reminds me of Kim Kardashian. In the sense that they were both gorgeous women before they went crazy with the plastic surgery. Now they just keep damaging themselves. It’s so frustrating to watch.
Just like Brandi!
I used to work at a medical spa. Awesome fun job to have btw! She DEFINATELY has fillers. Most likely Radiesse. It can sit directly on the bone & is also used to help weak chins (as it has replaced chin implants in recent years). People get addicted EASILY to fillers.
Some people used to come in VERY RELUCTANT to get fillers during a consultation, but after the procedure, they’d be back again and again. Luckily the Dr I worked for would tell them when they’d had enough & started to OD on fillers. But that is RARE w/plastic $urgeon$
Lol love how you write “plastic $urgeon$” -so funny!
I don’t know if plastic surgery as a whole is bad. If done in the proper manner it actually has helped people with real medical issues. Or simply wanted a set of bigger boobs to make them feel better. I personally don’t see why that would be a problem. But I think the over use and sometimes unnecessary surgeries when they should be getting psychological help is the real problem. I realize that there is a fine line between the two but, to me, there is a difference. Anyway, Megan does look a little underweight with too much makeup to make her “look” healthy but overall looks good.
I think the problem with plastic surgery in Megan’s situation is that she started too early. There’s a domino effect with all of it, you tweak one thing, the more obvious it seems you need to tweak another thing or retweak the same thing. So the things she did at like 21 looked great at the time. But within five years, the MAINTENANCE of her tweaking(botox, lip fillers, eyebrow lifts, rhinioplasty) really snuffs out any youthful freshness there is. It’s sad, cause she was a beauty to begin with, she didn’t need half the crap she did to herself. She looks like she can’t even move her face now without it hurting.
Nina I agree w/you 100%. I wish there was a pic of Meagan prior to her surgery for comparison. She was absolutely beautiful. It is sad to me that these young ladies feel the need to mess w/an already pretty face. Only thing I can figure is it has to be a self-esteem issue or some weird Hollywood’ standards.
And yes for some, plastic surgery has its place. But I just don’t see the reason w/Meagan.
I don’t know what you’re talking about with Kim K.
I don’t care for the lady, but you have to admit her face is still flawless.
Ms. Fox, before and after surgery:
http://cynvela.hubpages.com/hub/Megan-Fox-Before-and-After-Plastic-Surgery-Photo-Gallery
In the past, she used to have acne scar. I dont see any anymore…. Her face is flawless.
Aiobhan, I don’t think anyone is suggesting that all plastic surgery is bad. Most of what plastic surgeons do is very important: repairing birth defects or fixing damage from burns, injuries and surgical scars, for example. Few people would object to cosmetic procedures to correct pronounced issues like a very prominent nose or ears, or giving breasts to mastectomy patients. The issue is with superfluous cosmetic surgery which is aimed not at correcting flaws, but at making beautiful people even more beautiful. In most cases, the opposite is the result. Megan Fox is starting to look really weird.
Tears for a girl who use to be SO BEAUTIFUL and now she looks like…there are no words. WTF? Maybe she is suffering from some type of mental illness, I mean there is no other explaination.
I will never understand the chipmunk cheek look, how is that attractive? I had chunky cheeks when I was younger and could NOT wait for them to thin out.
Me too! My cheekbones are becoming a lot more defined and it makes me so much happier than my chipmunk cheeks. I don’t understand how people will pay money for that look.
For anyone who is still debating whether Megan Fox had work done or not, just google her back to the first transformer’s movie. She was absolutely gorgeous in that movie. Now? She looks half- alien which is such a shame because she was beautiful to start with.
How old is she again? I wanna say mid thirties, but I know that’s not right. Her face looks kinda stretched out and filled and shiny and stiff. It must be so uncomfortable!
Not a good look. She used to be gorgeous.
She’s had cheek implants for awhile now.
I think she lost some weight recently and its making them stand out more.
Such a shame b/c she was so pretty before all the work.
Her acting is a joke but Im still hoping she gets the part of Liz instead of LL.
Gah!
she’s gone under the knife more times than a sunday roast. tweaked for sure.
Whoa, she is slowly morphing into Melania Knauss, Trump’s wife.
I like her outfit. Don’t like how her face looks different in almost every photo. Maybe it’s makeup? Hopefully.
And why? For what? Why?!
Megan is a pretty woman and needs to stop with whatever she is doing. Her cheeks are to large and it’s not makeup. She will look like that cat lady she keeps it up.
looks horrid. i actually gasped in horror as i saw this pic in the main page. well anybody who adamantly denied her facial implants would feel stupid now i guess.
Not a clue. But those are the glossiest eyebrows I’ve ever see on a human being. I just want to pet them.
Nothing done here. She’s just too thin which gives everything sharp angles. She’s definitely not looking her best here for some reason.
her shiny feet are scary looking, like they could beat me up or play banjo
Her face looked much better a bit rounder but I don’t know if she’s had cheek implants. Her make up doesn’t look very good so it could have something to do with blush…
It sure looks like it
Close. Your. Mouth.
Ducklips don’t count. There now, how much better does that look?
She got lindsay lohan’s face now. WTF???
Look @ the 3rd pic. To me, there’s no denying it….chicken cutlets, for sure. Look at that unnatural line from the tip of her right brow going down to the “alleged” cheekbone. Sorry, that’s NOT natural. Her cheek is JUTTING OUT…that’s not her REAL CHEEKS…give me a break. It looks horrid, IMO! Really bad, NOT natural…it’s gross.
Yes…MEOW. Catface 4.0. Looks like she’s a Kartrashian. She’s looking a BIT too much like Kim. A skinny Kim K. Gross.
Why oh why do such young actresses do that? There was NOTHING wrong w/her real cheeks…good God almighty!
I’m no expert but yeah it looks like she’s had work done. And that is sad because she is way too young to be making major facial changes with plastics. She looks old. Shame. She was a pretty girl.
Gross.
She should have left her nose alone is what I say and enough with the trout-pout but her eyebrows and hair look pretty great in these pics.
its her makeup she did an interview on the covino an rich radio show yesterday and her cheeks looked fine
http://megandimension.wordpress.com/2012/03/05/megan-fox-no-radio-covino-rich/#
Hey y’all….look at that blob of brown coloring at her hairline. Seems to me this is self-applied to “hide” a weak hairline, maybe? Looks like it’s being done to “fill in” for a stronger hairline. It’s too obvious. If you can see it in the 3rd pic down, then you can spot it in almost every pic. Haha..can’t believe I saw that…a bit too obvious. Oh yeah, this girl’s aim is PERFECTION. Nobody’s “perfect.”
Cheek implants or fillers.. something is definitely going on with her face.
Yup, definitely. I’m guessing it is fillers.
And I think she looks awful, very fake and plastic looking.
I agree – and what a shame eh? She was drop dead gorgeous a few years back….
Not cheek implants it’s fillers.
When you get fillers and if it’s more than a syringe and I think she probably had a syringe or more in each cheek this time around and they probably went deep, you get a lot of swelling before it dies down. And the fillers takes awhile to wear off.. so it wears off and she refills.. she did this before during the promo of Transformers?
It will settle in a few weeks and then a month or so it will look much better. I am always swollen after my filler in my cheeks and hate it but love it after a few weeks. Once you have it you never want to go without it! lol
There is just a fine tuning of when it starts to wear off, how much do you let it wear off before you start looking haggard, and then how much do you touch up with… it’s iffy.. you have to be careful.. play around with amounts.. wait a week or 2 with the swelling, go back get a small touch up again and sometimes people just get it done all at once.
I prefer to wait a few weeks in between touch ups, let the swelling go down and see what I need.
Thanks Hadley I was just getting ready to say the same thing. Everyone mistakes cheek filler…Radiesse or Sculptra for ‘cheek implants”.
And you’re right the filler takes a few weeks to settle. I don’t agree that filler and botox makes you look older or worse. If its done correctly then you should look better no matter how old you are…and NOT plastic or done.
I don’t think the bottom of your cheekbones are supposed to be even with your mouth.
This girl keeps messing with her face because she can’t find someone to inject her with talent or a personality.
You know someone has done something when they make strange expressions for no reason, as in the first photo. It’s like they haven’t settled into their new face yet and they don’t know how to just have their mouth closed.
There’s no question she has cheek implants. But they look in the mirror and see an amazing cheekboned goddess, and we see a face that’s been ‘done’. That’s the catch. You will always look weird if you do too much, especially too young, no matter how good the surgery.
Hell no. It’s got nothing to do with how the blush is applied. Chick has something in her face. You can see how her “cheekbones” unnaturally jut out past the outer corners of her eyes in the third pic.
In the second pic she looks buck toothed. Do these chicks so want to look like horses/cats or what?
I’ve seen the Friends with Kids screening. It’s more a rom/com/dram, and it’s kind of great. It’s definitely scattered, but it’s more interesting and has a reality to it you’d find more on stage than screen. ANYWAY. Megan Fox? She’s a three years younger and three fillers less LiLo. So budget. LiLo DID used to be good at comedy. Megan is dry wood with some lipstick and silicon.
Also, Megs looks as old as other Megs.
She looks awful and creepy. Why can’t this girl stop with the shenanigans? She looks terrible and 15 years older than she is.
i read somewhere that Iman was in a pretty bad car accident back in the day and required her face to be recontructed.
if that particular rumour is true, then Iman is a great example of plastic surgery without looking plastic.
ps;- i must admit that i like Megan and Dita Vin Teese kat faces ‘hungs head in shame’
pps:- but not the other kat faces
WOW…she looks friggin terrible
She looks like she is in constant pain.
Megan Fox is a natural beauty.
These FELINE claw swipes @ her say’s lot.
She has undeniable
I like Megan. She does have issues. But she took what she had, made the most of it, and got into Hollywood. Before the total overhaul, she was pretty and cute, but not a standout. She does need to stop now, though.
I can’t be the only one who thinks she looks beautiful..
She was much more beautiful before she messed with her face.
She is still very pretty but I really thought she was beautiful before she started messing with her face. I wish she’d stop. She’s so young and has done so much already!
Even if she tweaked I think she looks good. Sometimes they put tons of face make up just to achieve a natural look and make up is used to define and highlight areas, maybe make her cheekbones look higher. But anyhoo! I still think she looks great, acting is tolerable in small doses but she hasn’t irritated me much so she’s okay. 🙂
why would yu do this? she used to be a walking fantasy. she used to to be so literally breathtaking. now shes breathtakingly unrecognizable. not a good look. she does have insecurity issues and body dis morphia she’s said in interviews she thinks she looks like a man.
Implants or not, but she now looks 10 years older.
She’s even incapable of actually smiling and that blow kiss thing – lame. Did she lose an extreme amount of weight and then try to begin gaining it again, because her body really shows it. It’s all lump and saggy looking that what you;re stuck with as you get older if you at one ponit or another drop weight fast.
She is beginning to resemble Cher….
Stop and think for a second what it would be like to have pieces ofplastic inside your cheeks…..erhhhhhh sends shivers down my spine!!
She was SO striking in Transformers 1, leaning over the engine of her car. She should have let her face alone. Sad to see her change for the worse IMO.
Hey Celebitchy,
I know you need to make money but I HATE those ads that follow me down the screen, blocking my view! The x is so tiny that half the time trying to close it takes me to their page (deliberate, I’m sure). Makes me want to leave the site 🙁
Megan Fox was such a natural beauty. It’s a shame what shes done to her face.
She’s copying Angelina Jolie’s look in Michael Kors coat at “In the Land of Blood and Honey” DC premiere… Dark wrap coat, check. Nude dress and shoes, check and check. Google it!
its to much blush here is a photo from siriusxm on the same day
http://megan-fox.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=750&pid=35839#top_display_media
her cheeks look fine
Imho, those still don’t look like her original cheeks to me. I’m talking about a few YEARS ago. She tweaked her face a bit before Transformers 1 (which was her best look in my opinion), but she unfortunately didn’t stop. Personally I think those radio pictures make them look like they’re sticking out even farther because you know it isn’t the makeup making them do that.
too much offense… not enough defense…
