While she was still part of the insanely successful “Transformers” franchise, Megan Fox landed one of the most coveted contracts in the fashion industry: she became the Armani girl. A new ad for Armani Cosmetics has been released.

As part of her endorsement deal, Megan promotes Armani jeans, underwear and cosmetics line. Unlike previous ads, this one has a “behind the scenes” feel meant to justify why the brand named her the Face of Beauty.

The ad, which you can also see below, embedded at the end of the article, begins with Megan saying how grateful she is that Mr. Armani chose her as the spokesperson for his famous and iconic brand.

She also says that what “affects [her] the most” is when “[her] stepson tells [her she’s] beautiful,” a comment that has been interpreted online as a very obvious attempt on her part to draw attention to the one thing that first made her relevant: her incredible good looks.

Also in the ad, Megan talks about how she prefers to do her own makeup even though a professional stylist does a much better job at it.

As for the difference between wearing lipgloss and lipstick, the actress believes the former is for a more youthful look, while the latter goes better at night, when you’re looking for a more sophisticated look.

If you ever happened to wonder about which is Megan Fox’s favorite part of her almost perfect body, you should know that it’s the eyes, which she likes to make “pop up” with smoky makeup.

The release of this new Armani ad comes at a time when Michael Bay and seemingly everyone still involved in the “Transformers” franchise are throwing Megan under the bus with the aim of promoting the latest installment, “The Dark of the Moon.”

Just recently, both director Michael Bay and former co-star Shia LaBeouf spoke about the reasons Megan was fired from “Transformers,” basically saying it was her own fault and she totally deserved to be thrashed in the media for it, as we also noted at the time.
