Megan Fox Would Like America's Teenagers To Know That Jennifer's Body Is Going To Be Terrible

Let's be honest, there is nothing funny or clever about this, just as there will be nothing funny or clever about the movie for which this is a limp viral marketing ploy. Parodies of PSA's are tired in general, but this one is particularly bad. The mind of Diablo Cody needs a nap! And if there is one single person in the entire world who shouldn't ever say shit to kids with low self-esteem who feel like the world was not made for them, it's Megan Fucking Fox, even as a joke. A joke for which she received a paycheck. This is actually gross the more I think about it. It's so boring and lame and blatantly pandering and tone-deaf and ugly. I mean, I'm not such a stick in the mud as to actually say "remember Columbine," but I just overheard some other stick in the mud say "remember Columbine" and he kind of has a point. (I know that no one is going to shoot up some school because of this stupid thing, but that doesn't make it any less tasteless, especially since it's already just a piece of junk anyway. Ugh fuel on the boo fire.) Just make a poster of Megan Fox's tits for your stupid monster movie and shut the fuck up.

Of course, because it's not like teenagers buy tickets for PG movies and then just sneak into R ones. That would be insane. Especially if their friends who work at the movies would just give them the tickets anyway... Oh, wait, that actually happens in my hometown.

Wow, I can't wait to "kill and eat" anyone and everyone who I feel doesn't respect me...

And I realize that this isn't real, but the logic behind the message is breaking my brain. She's like "peer pressure is a bad thing," and then she's like "so why don't you go ahead and do exactly what I suggest right now." Couldn't they have changed "peer pressure" to some other kind of issue if she was going to be telling us what to do?

I think fake PSA's have got to outnumber real ones by a margin of 10 or so. When I see one now I just wait for the punchline and Megan Fox's interpretation of "a person who is serious about something" was not convincing enough to make this an exception.

Listening to her voice, I can't help but think that in 10-15 years, she's going to marry one of the now Grammy-winning Jonas Brothers and begin a life as a horrible rich housewife, and will start her own e-mail newsletter at Meef.com where she shares recipes and delightful stories.


Then Gabe, at 93 years old, will be forced to kill himself. Sorry Gabe, we'll miss you.
