Wild child, bad girl... but not an 'airhead idiot', meet Megan Fox

'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' actress Megan Fox has hit back at claims that she is an "idiot or air-head' because she embraces her sexuality.

The 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' actress has hit back at the critics who have branded her an "idiot or air-head" just because she is confident with her body.

Megan - who has been in an relationship with her husband Brian Austin Green since 2004 - told the Mail on Sunday's Event magazine: "You are made to feel that if you embrace your sexuality, you are an idiot or an air-head, or you have to make yourself seem more masculine. Why would you ever want to do that? Women are beautiful, but we are also intelligent - and some of us are very strong.

"People insist on seeing me as a wild child, a bad girl, a naughty girl and I don't know why. Because my life is the exact opposite.

"People have a hard time looking at me, knowing that I accept my sexuality and then understanding that I'm not promiscuous - they just can't put that idea together. But I have been with Brian for ten years."
