Cannes Film Festival 2013

Watch: Megan Fox talks 'Jennifer's Body' in Toronto

'Transformers' star and her 'Body' co-star Johnny Simmons chat with HitFix


Doing interviews at the same time that you're up here trying to see movies is, frankly, insane, and yet I had a pretty good time because of the other journalists up here.  I have nothing but admiration for the insanity that almost all of the publicists were dealing with, stretched too thin and trying to do 40 things at once in most cases.

At the "Jennifer's Body" press day, people were all abuzz before I even got to the Park Hyatt.  Same place I stayed recently when I was up here for the "Scott Pilgrim" set visit.  The first thing I was told, about six times by different people, was that I was not allowed to ask Megan anything about Michael Bay.  There were all sorts of bizarre outlets pulling god knows what.  One guy threw water on himself and tried to take his shirt off while talking to Fox.

My conversation with her and with co-star Johnny Simmons (probably the best performance in the film is him) was considerably less eventful than that.  Still, it's worth a look.

    How did you not lose your concentration when she was balancing that marble (or whatever the hell it was) across her knuckles? And is there any other actress today that could get away with doing something like that during an interview?

    Seriously, what was up with the marble? Was her script typed out on it?

    Loving it when the video cuts to Drew, and you can see Megan's disembodied hand on the left, fingers moving like she's putting a hex on Drew. And then she uses the word 'cognisant'.
    Scary stuff!

    hey guys, it was amazing to see Megan Fox in Jennifer's body movie trailer. i am waiting to watch Jennifer's body full movie also. may be this will depict more advance acting of Megan than previous movies. it is really wonderful. don't think this is a hype. believe me or not Jennifer's body is a great movie.

    Drew, are you trying to compete with Harry? You need to get on a diet man, think of your heart and your family.
    And all of us wanting to keep reading your stuff too.

      drew I'm 60 pounds down from my heaviest and dropping. So thanks for the concern, but I've long since made that choice. It's tough to compete with a professionally sedentary lifestyle, but I'm doing it.

    Good to hear that your working on it, good luck with that. Exercise and a mostly vegetarian diet is helpful for me. If you get lean and mean like the starlets you interview you could call yourself Moriarty again...
