Raquel Welch Praises ‘Super Hot’ Megan Fox

When it comes to sex symbols, Raquel Welch considers Megan Fox the reigning queen.

“Megan Fox is super hot,” the screen siren, 69, tells me during The Greenbrier Casino Club gala opening held this week in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. “She’s the front runner.”

Raquel adds, “But there are so many, and I think they’re all fabulous.”

For Megan, who wed longtime beau Brian Austin Green last month, being considered a sex symbol is an honor.

“It’s surreal, and I don’t think you ever get used to it,” she says. “It’s a blessing. I’m lucky to be where I am today.”

Still, her Jennifer’s Body director Karyn Kusama believes having supreme good looks isn’t as great as it may seem.

“I think beauty is definitely a very, very mixed blessing,” she tells me. “I think it’s very hard to be stunningly beautiful and also want to be taken seriously. I think there’s a lot of internal, personal war about how you want to be looked at and perceived. I think it’s probably an advantage in the entertainment business to be stunningly beautiful, but ultimately it can be a trap.”

Hm, does Megan feel that way?

“I don’t know. I think she’s getting there. I think roles like this one help people understand that she’s got the goods.”
