Megan Fox doesn't want to be like Angelina Jolie.

The sexy 'Jennifer's Body' actress has frequently been compared to the 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' star since her break-through role in 2007's 'Transformers', but despite the brunettes' similar looks and penchant for wild statements, the younger actress insists they are poles apart .

Megan, 23, said: "People compare me to Angelina Jolie, and she's so serious and stoic. I'm the opposite.

"I'm not a tigress like Angelina. Of course, people want me to be. But I want to be the contradiction of that."

Megan - who was caught in a furore after she compared 'Transformers' director Michael Bay to Nazi party leader Adolf Hitler - blamed the Angelina comparisons for people taking her too seriously.

She said: "When I do interviews, I say things that I think are hysterical. But because we live in a world of sound bites, you're not allowed to have a sense of humour.

"Sarcasm doesn't translate in print at all. And neither does self-deprecating humour."

Megan also said she had doubts about her own acting skills, unlike Oscar-winner Angelina.

She told the New York Times newspaper: "I don't know if I'm talented, I don't know what I can do or can't do. I had no skills at all. As a child, I had it in my head that I was supposed to be doing this, and then I did it. But I didn't know what I was doing."
