Just deal with it, people. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is your new Megan Fox. She does endless interviews, she?s not that bright, she tries to play the victim and her face is kind of crazy. I might even think that Megan is a better actor than Rosie, judging solely from the absolutely terrible clip released of the new Transformers movie. But today we?ll just be discussing Rosie and her multiple magazine covers. Last week, Bedhead covered Rosie?s Complex cover story, and today we have her appearances on GQ UK and Elle UK, all for the June and July issues. In Elle, she discussed how she was forced to lose weight in her early days of modeling:
She may be a Victoria?s Secret Angel and named Maxim magazine?s ?Hottest Woman on Earth? ? not to mention Megan Fox?s replacement in Transformers 3 ? but the body that got Rosie Huntington-Whiteley to sex-symbol status didn?t come easy ? or without some sacrifices.
?When I started modelling, I was definitely heavier,? she says in ELLE magazine?s June issue. ?I was quite voluptuous in fact. I had a real baby face and baby fat. But I was a baby! I was told I had to get into better shape, but I?m quite stubborn so I didn?t. I can?t remember a time where I really battled with my body, but I can remember being asked to lose weight and battling with the advice. It hurt me. Especially as my baby fat naturally melted away as I got older.?
But in true bombshell fashion, the 24-year-old Brit stood strong. ?You can bullied as a young model, but there was a point where I found my voice, effectively.?
The starlet will make her debut on the big screen this summer in Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon, where she plays Carly Miller. She replaces one of Hollywood?s well-known hot bodies, Megan Fox, in the action-flick series.

I think what bothers me about someone like Rosie complaining about the issue of body image and weight loss in the modeling industry is that she (and many other models) always make it sound like fait accompli. Like, OF COURSE they had to lose weight, of course they were told to lose weight, of course they didn?t stand up and fight for healthier body image representations and of course when they were told to lose weight, they did so with ease (or so they claim). The story is never, ?I was told to lose weight and I told them to go screw themselves. But a month later, I started doing blow and then I lost weight. Yay.? I guess? I just don?t find Rosie?s body image struggle particularly sympathetic. Anyway, here are some excerpts from Rosie?s GQ UK interview:
Rosie on being teased: ?I was teased about the way I looked at school. I got teased because of my lips. I used to get called T**t lips ? because I had big lips but no breasts. And then I was called Kipper Lips. There was a big group of girls that was Devon?s answer to Mean Girls, and they would storm the bathrooms shouting, ?I?m going to f****ing deck you, Lips! See you on the school bus?. And boys didn?t really go out with me.?
But really she did have friends: ?We?d hang around in soggy jeans drinking cider. I did long for the city. But I was a very outdoorsy kid. Until I was 15, riding was my thing ? I was horse-obsessed.?
She interned at a modeling agency and she was ?discovered? at 17: ?I was shocked. I used to see all these supermodels walking into the agency ? tall, elegant glamazons. I was just a big lump from Devon. But within a year I was travelling to America, being booked for French Connection, Tommy Hillfiger, Abercrombie & Fitch. I started to make serious money. Suddenly school didn?t seem quite so important.?
Her new acting career: ?Would I like even a sniff of Angelina Jolie?s career? Yes. Do I think I have a future in this business? I certainly hope so. And I?m going to work damn hard to make sure I do. I?m not standing here and saying I?m an amazing actress or that I?ve had a heap of thespie training. But you?re damned if you do and you?re damned if you don?t.?

She?s not really at the Megan Fox-level of dumb interviews. If this was Megan, she would have told a story about how she was a fake lesbian and thrown in some insults for Michael Bay. In comparison to Fox, Rosie just seems kind of bland. I don?t even find these photo shoots particularly interesting or provocative in any way, good or bad. I just don?t think Rosie is interesting enough to be anything beyond a model. And even then? I don?t know. I used to kind of like her look, but she?s plucking my last nerve lately.
Oh, and about the Angelina Jolie career goal? well, Rosie should maybe aim lower? Let?s aim for Megan Fox, hon.

I feel like I?m seeing a snapshot of Shiloh or Vivienne* in 20yrs?she certainly has the Jolie-Pitt lips (compliment)
-
She?s right to be surprised when she was ?discovered? because she ain?t pretty, Megan Fox is super-hot but stupid and this chick is both fug and stupid LOL
-
After seeing the trailer for the 3rd Transformers she should definitely aim to reach Megan Fox? acting skills. Didn?t believe I?ll ever say it.
And her interview is so formuliac it hurts. Weren?t they all teased at school, the poor ugly ducklings?! Sure, they?re the LAST to believe they can model, even after signing the contract?And school is just such an unpaid waste of time!
And sure there is a bright future ahead because being multitalent opens you every door, Angelina beware! -
yeah, ?making serious money? seems to be an index mark for her so good luck with ever being happy and not shallow.
-
I seriously dislike models who try to branch into acting (with few exceptions, as Charlize Theron, for example).
I just think that being an actor requires, aside from talent and some level of (not necessarily essential) prettiness, a really interesting face. Some features that make you remember the actor and focus on what their eyes, mouth and face in general are expressing and emoting.
Models, nowadays, are mostly just bland and boring standard faces mounted on thin, slender bodies. Just stick to that, I say. -
At least Megan attempted to have some spark. This girl is just?utterly boring and bland.
And please Rosie, just because you have big (fake) lips doesn?t mean that you?re going to be the next Angelina Jolie.
-
@imo that?s exactly what I was thinking!! That this is what Vivienne Jolie-Pitt is going to look like in 20 years.
-
I don?t think she?s ugly and she seems smarter than Megan Fox who I think is a complete idiot and when Fox got a little fame turned into attention whore. It stand to be seen if the same thing will happen to Rosie but at least she knows she not an amazing actress unlike Fox who thought see was the Sh*t and every movie she was in that boomed was someone else fault and not do to her bad acting.
Cherry Rose@ Fox too thought she was going to be the next Angelina Jolie not just Rosie.
-
Bitch please. That?s all.
-
@ Kaiser - I think I find her wholely unsympathetic. (I don?t like her, and she has been EVERYWHERE lately! What she needs is a sniff of STFU.)
-
Is there any celebrity confession more mind-killingly boring than ?I was bullied at school?? Yes. ?I was not as cute as I am now?. Ugh. Get LOST Rosie.
-
I?m with the original bellaluna: But she needs more than a sniff of STFU. She neds to inhale very deeply.
