Megan Fox MetroCity Ads Bring Star To South Korea (PHOTOS)

Foreign ad campaigns are one of Hollywood A-listers' best kept secrets. From Jennifer Connelly's '80s ads for Japanese makeup line Shiseido to Sean Connery selling Japanese yogurt, celebs travel thousands of miles from American shores to shoot hilariously awkward yet highly lucrative ads that they pray never get seen stateside (Esquire rounded up a whole bunch, including Jennifer Aniston in a German Heineken spot, here).

Luckily, unlike many famous Americans' commercial ventures overseas, Megan Fox's new ads aren't the slightest bit humiliating. The "Friends with Kids" actress has posed for MetroCity, a luxury handbag brand in South Korea that is relatively unknown in the U.S. but must have an American-sized budget for campaign models.

Fox models the bags while lounging on a chaise, wearing a ladylike lace dress with relatively little makeup and her hair down and loose. It's actually a lovely look, one we wish she'd try more often on the red carpet.

Then again, the celebrity motto is as follows: the ads that happen in [non-English speaking country], stay in [non-English speaking country].

a lot of people hate her and call her ugly, but that bone structure is excellent, the skin flawless, beautiful eyes, and just because a girl is thin doesn't mean you have to hate her.

Put the haterade away guys.

After seeing her replacement on the Transformers I never thought I would say it but please bring Megan back ASAP. Talk about a step down in talent. Megan has a ways to go to be an accomplished star but she has a far better chance than the one who replaced her. Pair her up in some other action pictures until she gets her skills down and the guys will love the eye candy.

She's a skinny-fatty. No muscle tone.

Sorry, I see "Metrocity" and I think of how Megamind pronounced it (me-TROSS-ity).

I know it's me but I don't get the attraction with this woman. She has no body - no butt, no boobs. Her face is average.

Then again I don't get the Brad Pitt and David Beckham attraction either.

Throw the biggest mystery of all in there - Jennifer Anistan.

Sorry. I just couldn't help it.

Agreed! Though I do think Megan Fox is pretty- she is just really stupid. And Brad Pitt is gorgeous to me.

It's a shame - she doesn't look happy. There's no glow.
