MEGAN Fox insists she’s nothing like “tigress” Angelina Jolie.

The Jennifer’s Body star, 23, says she hates being compared to the Changeling actress.

“People compare me to Angelina Jolie, and she’s so serious and stoic. I’m the opposite,” Megan said.

“I’m not a tigress like Angelina. Of course, people want me to be. But I want to be the contradiction of that.

“When I do interviews, I say things that I think are hysterical. But because we live in a world of sound bites, you’re not allowed to have a sense of humor.

“Sarcasm doesn’t translate in print at all. And neither does self-deprecating humor.

“I don’t know if I’m talented, I don’t know what I can do or can’t do. I had no skills at all. As a child, I had it in my head that I was supposed to be doing this, and then I did it. But I didn’t know what I was doing.”

Fox recently insisted she isn’t chasing fame.

“I try not to focus on fame,” she said. “I am not that aware of it all except at certain times like when I was on the press tour for Transformers and there were large crowds of people wherever we went.

“When I was at the Teen Choice Awards recently it was great. I got very nervous when they got to my category because I thought they would all be screaming for Beyonce but not for me. I thought it would get quiet when they announced my name, I was actually scared.

“But instead there was a huge eruption of screaming and cheering and that made me so happy. I am thrilled to have so many teenage fans. I think teenagers are the best fans to have and if girls like me, then I am extremely happy because I do not want to push the female audience away.

“It is a fine line that you walk when you are sold a certain way in the media. I don’t think I have alienated girls, though, because it is usually teenage girls who approach me.”
