Oct 20 2009Megan Fox loves Transformers now
With Jennifer's Body completely bombing at the box office, Megan Fox has changed her tune on the Transformers franchise during at the 2009 Scream Awards. And by change her tune I mean lie about shit-talking the movie and Michael Bay. Us Magazine reports:
"I don't usually do this, but I wanted to say something," she began. "There have been a lot of false reports about how I feel about this movie. I just want to be very clear that I've always felt I'm a very ordinary part of an extraordinary film."
She added that "the movie took me out of obscurity and gave me a career, and I'm completely grateful to everyone involved with this franchise."
Well, at least Megan finally acknowledged that absolutely no one remembers a single line she said in the first Transformers movie. But if her character did speak Michael Bay needs to go back to film school and/or commit seppuku.
Sep 13 2009Megan Fox is a 'thankless, unfriendly bitch'
In response to recent comments by Megan Fox comparing Michael Bay to Hitler, three crew members from the Transformers movies decided to write a lengthy open letter (Posted in its entirety after the jump.) on MichaelBay.com highlighting Megan's diva-like behavior on the set. Here's an excerpt:
We know this quite intimately because we've had the tedious experience of working with the dumb-as-a-rock Megan Fox on both Transformers movies. We've spent a total of 12 months on set making these two movies.
We are in different departments; we can't give our names because sadly doing so in Hollywood could lead to being banished from future Paramount work. One of us touches Megan's panties, the other has the often shitty job of pulling Ms. Sour pants out of her trailer, while another is near the Panaflex camera that helps to memorialize the valley girl on film.
Megan has the press fooled. When we read those magazines we wish we worked with that woman. Megan knows how to work her smile for the press. Those writers should try being on set for two movies, sadly she never smiles. The cast, crew and director make Transformers a really fun and energetic set. We've traveled around the world together, so we have never understood why Megan was always such - the grump of the set?
When facing the press, Megan is the queen of talking trailer trash and posing like a porn star. And yes we've had the unbearable time of watching her try to act on set, and yes, it's very cringe-able. So maybe, being a porn star in the future might be a good career option. But make-up beware, she has a paragraph tattooed to her backside (probably due her rotten childhood) easily another 45 minutes in the chair!
Michael Bay has since removed the letter and posted the following statement:
I don't condone the crew letter to Megan. And I don't condone Megan's outlandish quotes. But her crazy quips are part of her crazy charm. The fact of the matter I still love working with her, and I know we still get along. I even expect more crazy quotes from her on Transformers 3.
Of course, it's rumored Michael Bay wrote the letter himself which I find hard to believe considering it lacks 85,000 explosions and jive-talking robots expressing their love for fried chicken.

Sep 2 2009Megan Fox: 'Michael Bay is Hitler'
Megan Fox is the center of Wonderland's 4th Anniversary Issue where she opens up her questionable mental state and the similarities between Michael Bay and the Fuhrer:
On what the fuck's wrong with her:
"I definitely have some kind of mental problem and I haven't pinpointed what it is."
On her new movie Jennifer's Body:
"I think it's really about how fucked up and scary girls are. Girls are fucking nightmares."
On being a product:
"Part of my product is being outrageous and outspoken so even when I'm not being that way I'm going to be sold that way."
On Michael Bay:
"[Michael Bay] wants to be like Hitler on his sets, and he is. So he's a nightmare to work for."
And I think I've finally reached my threshold of Megan Fox shenanigans. Unless her new shtick is fornicating with a blogger who refers to his penis as the "Bat-pole," I don't want to hear another word that isn't "Yes, Batman, it's my fault the Riddler stole your sandwich."
Jul 8 2009Michael Bay has 'secret audtion' tape of Megan Fox
Before the first Transformers hit theaters, Megan Fox was a virtually unknown actress desperate to find work which made her vulnerable to predatorial directors. Non-surprisingly that included Michael Bay who had a Ferrari in need of washing and a video camera in need of.. videoing. The San Francisco Chronicle reports:
But the star's start in Hollywood was anything but glamorous, after director Michael Bay made her clean his expensive car as part of her audition for the role, according to U.K. broadcaster Jason Solomons.
He writes in his film column for the Observer newspaper, "He made her wash his Ferrari while he filmed her."
And Soloman insists Fox was concerned as to where the footage may have ended up, quizzing an embarrassed Bay over the bizarre audition.
He adds, "She said she didn't know what had happened to that footage. When I put it to Bay himself, he looked suitably abashed -- 'Er, I don't know where it is either.'"
I never thought I'd say the following words, but in light of recent events, there's really no other option. So here goes: I respect Michael Bay as person and do not curse his very existence. -- Wow. I was pretty sure a black hole would open up and swallow our entire reality. No, wait, there it is. Whee!
Thanks to Devin who thought he knew heroism. Until today.

Jul 3 2009Megan Fox and Michael Bay hate each other
While Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen dominates the box office to no one's surprise, Megan Fox and Michael Bay are trading barbs in the press after she recently shit on the film because it focused on special effects and not acting. Bay had the following to say to the Wall Street Journal:
Well, that's Megan Fox for you. She says some very ridiculous things because she's 23 years old and she still has a lot of growing to do. You roll your eyes when you see statements like that and think, "Okay Megan, you can do whatever you want. I got it." But I 100% disagree with her. Nick Cage wasn't a big actor when I cast him, nor was Ben Affleck before I put him in "Armageddon." Shia LaBeouf wasn't a big movie star before he did "Transformers"--and then he exploded. Not to mention Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, from "Bad Boys." Nobody in the world knew about Megan Fox until I found her and put her in "Transformers." I like to think that I've had some luck in building actors' careers with my films.
Here's an easy compromise that should appease both parties: In the third film, simply have all the robots recite Shakespeare, and Megan Fox go full frontal for 98% of the running time. Which, for the Academy's consideration, should be no less than five hours and 52 minutes. SHAZAM! Movie magic. No need to thank me, Dreamworks. I'm just a man who enjoys fine cinema. (Read: There is, and I want an advanced screener. Sans robots.)
