Megan Fox has revealed her thoughtful, sensitive side in Interview magazine's latest issue, in which the star chats with, of all people, "The Hangover" funnyman Zach Galifianakis about the pressures of fame and how much her bad-girl image is a result of her own attempts at misdirection.

The result is a surprisingly thoughtful portrait of a woman who has been pegged as, alternately, a brat, a lunatic or an ingrate throughout the years by the media.

For example, Fox gives a reasonable explanation for her dislike for the paparazzi

"I don't really resent being on the red carpet as much as I do having to deal with the paparazzi," she says. "The photographers on the red carpet, that's their job."

It's a surprisingly levelheaded comment from someone who'd gone from the love interest in "Transformers 3" to the villain of the production.
