'Lost' star foxy in so many ways

January 11, 2007

NEW YORK - Matthew Fox, who plays heroic doctor Jack on the castaway drama "Lost," has a dark side.

"I'm a liar and a cheat and a thief and the ultimate manipulator. ... I tell lies every day, man," the 40-year-old actor says in the February issue of Men's Journal magazine. "And when I say I'm phenomenally manipulative, I am."

Fox, now starring with Matthew McConaughey in the movie "We Are Marshall," says he "can be unapologetically vicious" and is "absolutely an instigator."

"I really enjoy social boozing, and what I enjoy about it is when people I know and care about say and do things they normally wouldn't say or do," he says. "To make that happen I'll instigate anything."

"Lost" is on hiatus until February.
