Megan Fox: “I Don’t Yet Have Enough Money To Have Kids.”

Megan Fox says she does not yet have enough money stashed in the bank to have kids. Really. “I want to have children. I’ve always wanted kids. I have a number in my mind of what amount of money I want in the bank so that I can protect my child’s future,” Fox told The Hollywood Reporter.

That sounds noble and responsible, but how much money are we talking about needing here? 
And, what happened to the Transformers and Jennifer’s Body paychecks? Not to mention that Fox is married to Brian Austin Green who probably still makes great money off of 90210 residuals. Guess some people just never have enough.
Speaking of not having enough, Megan, who was voted the Sexiest Woman in the World by FHM magazine, also does not believe she is beautiful.  
“I was never the beautiful girl in my school. I mean, I had braces and I died my hair orange. I was not the popular girl. I was always the loner.”

She also says she hates watching her own movies, “I don’t like to watch myself on-screen,” she tells JustJared.com, “I get nauseous from the audience’s reaction. Like when a part of the movie is supposed to be funny and the audience doesn’t laugh, that’s the worst!”

She’s not serious about all this right? 

VIDEO: Megan Fox & Brian Austin Green Celebrate Wedding Anniversary Hawaii Style

Megan Fox may be hot, but she certainly doesn’t seem bothered by the news which came out recently that Steven Spielberg may have been the one to fire the actress from the Transformers franchise.

Fox had said she left the franchise because she wanted to pursue other acting opportunities. But we later found out that she was fired from the movie series for a 2009 interview in which she said director Michael Bay wants to “be like Hitler on his sets, and he is.”

When executive producer Steven Spielberg heard the Hitler comment he reportedly called up Bay and said “fire her right now.” 

So, Fox may have been fired by the biggest name in Hollywood film-making, but she isn’t sitting home and crying about it. Instead, she’s frolicking around Hawaii in an itsy-bitsy bikini with husband, Brian Austin Green to celebrate their one year wedding anniversary this Friday.

Bel Air Film Festival Honors Brian Austin Green, Kathy Najimy, Mark Rydell and Salaam Remi

AROUND TOWN LOS ANGELES.

  Last night marked the opening night of the 3rd Annual Bel Air Film Festival which runs through October 19, 2010.

The Bel Air Film Festival is a blossoming showcase for films from around the world, including many world premieres. Movie screenings will be held at the UCLA James Bridges Theater where 58 films will be presented including 35 world premieres and 12 Los Angeles premieres.

The opening ceremonies were marked by presentation of four awards: Brian Austin Green (Best Actor), Kathy Najimy (Best Actress), Mark Rydell (Legendary Filmmaker Award) and Salaam Remi (Best Music in Film).

Here is a video of Brian Austin Green accepting his Best Actor award. He starts by referring to a 10-minute reel of his on screen achievements which was shown just before the award presentation:

Here is some of the interview with Brian Austin Green before the opening ceremonies:

Here is Kathy Najimy acceptng her award:

The opening night ceremony also showed a screening of Walk a Mile in My Pradas, a film by the festival’s headline sponsor Dream It Productions.

Cast of Walk A Mile In My Pradas

This “Work in Progress” feature film starring Nathaniel Marston, Tom Arnold, and Tom Archdeacon, tells a timely story about relevant issues such as Prop 8 and gay rights. The film offers messages of tolerance and acceptance, in a light and heart warming, comedic fashion and marks director Joey Sylvester’s feature debut.

The screening also presented my favorite of the night, the Los Angeles Premiere of the short film Turning Japanese, starring Brian Austin Green. Turning Japanese tells the story of a couple struggling with their finances that stumble upon an unknowing sleepwalker and exploit her nightly episodes by selling tickets. Brian Austin Green is well known from his role on the hit TV series Beverly Hills, 90210 as well as his performances in the sitcom Freddie, the films Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Domino and recurring roles on the TV series Smallville and Desperate Housewives.

Kathy Najimy introduced the Los Angeles premiere of the documentary The Last Elephants in Thailand and brought attention to a cause she personally supports: the fight to save the dwindling population of elephants in Thailand and expose the abuse of elephants in amusement parks and the way elephants are forced to paint. Named Ms. Magazine’s “Woman of the Year” in 2005 and known as the voice of Peggy Hill on 14 seasons of the animated series King of the Hill, she is also easily recognized for her roles in the films Sister Act I and Sister Act II, the animated film Wall-E and over 20 feature films including Hocus Pocus, Rat Race and The Wedding Planner. An active philanthropist, she has been recognized frequently for over 20 years of charitable efforts.

Mark Rydell received the Legendary Filmmaker Award, presented by Katharine Kramer. Rydell’s credits include: The Rose, On Golden Pond, and The River. In accepting his award, Rydell said, “I’d have a terrific life as an actor, director and hopefully, as an artist. I’d like to be remembered as an artist.”

Salaam Remi

Salaam Remi was recognized by BAFF for Best Music in Film. He has produced for Nas, The Fugees, Amy Winehouse, Alicia Keys and Ricky Martin among others and is responsible for the sounds of Sex and the City and Rush Hour 3. A favorite of directors Brett Ratner and Michael Patrick King, Remi is one of the most sought after producers in Hollywood. He recently finished scoring an upcoming documentary on Mike Tyson.
