Chris Lee of the Los Angeles Times called Fox a “sex symbol of the highest order” and said she was “the first bona fide sex symbol of the 21st century.” Craig Flaster of MTV stated, “Transformers broke Fox into the mainstream, immediately turning her into a household name and international sex symbol.” At the time Fox took issue with the perception of her as a “wild and crazy sexpot” because she considered herself asocial, doesn’t trust or like men in general, and at that time had only been sexually active with her childhood sweetheart and Brian Austin Green.

Fox’s physical beauty has earned her several domestic and international magazine covers including Maxim, FHM (United Kingdom), Cosmo Girl, Jack (Italy), and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in 2023.
