Megan Fox hides who she truly is behind a persona she has created for the media, reports gossip.ie.

“Being a celebrity is like being a sacrificial lamb. At some point, no matter how high the pedestal that they (critics and audiences) put you on, they’re going to tear you down. And I created a character as an offering for the sacrifice. I’m not willing to give my true self up,” she said.

“The reality is, I’m hidden amongst all the insanity. Nobody can find me,” she added.

Megan is such a sweetheart! When she saw the picture (above) that showed a young fan trying to give her a rose while she’s in the midst of a paparazzi frenzy, she was “horrified” that she didn’t see the boy and, thereby, have the chance to take his rose.

“I feel so sad for him. That kills me,” she says. “It breaks my heart. And if you know his name, I’ll send him a personal apology. I’m horrified—I would never do that. I’m sorry, sweet boy. I would never do that to you, and I would gladly accept your rose.”

Anyone who knows how much she loves children would know she’d never, ever, ever do anything to harm one in any way. This sort of thing happens all the time – celebs have to be ushered places so quickly that they just don’t have the time to see every single fan and acknowledge every single gift.

I think it’s very sweet of her to offer an apology.  Can you imagine how flipped the boy would  be if she got a similar rose tattooed somewhere on her body to pay tribute to him?

Megan, who recently split with actor Brian Austin Green after a five-year relationship, reportedly celebrated her birthday by herself in Hawaii.

The 23-year-old said she is still learning to deal with not having someone looking after her.

“Alone. I am not in a committed relationship right now. I really don’t know anything about being single yet, really. I’ve been reading a lot and listening to music and trying just to work on myself,” the Daily Telegraph quoted her as saying.

“I was with someone from the time I was 18, so I’ve never been forced to take care of myself. I’ve always had someone doing that for me.

“Right now there’s no space in my head for who’s going to be next or how I need to fill my time. I’m just trying to be comfortable with who I am before I get into another relationship.

“(Otherwise) I will be Elizabeth Taylor by the time I’m 60 and I don’t want to do that,’’ she added.
