Megan Fox branded as ‘Ridiculous’ by Transformers director
Rachael | July 3, 2009
Megan Fox needs to “grow up” according to the Transformers director.
The 23-year-old actress criticised Transformers director, Michael Bay saying he focused too much on special effects rather than acting during the 2007 blockbuster, however Bay has hit back saying her comments are “ridiculous” and should be ignored.
Michael-who recently recast Fox into this summer’s sequel ‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’ – said, “Well that is Megan Fox for you. She says some very ridiculous things because she is 23-years-old and still has a lot of growing up to do.
“You roll your eyes when you see statements like that and think, ‘Ok Megan, you can do whatever you want. I got it.’”
He further told Us weekly magazine, “Nick Cage wasn’t a big actor when I cast him, nor was Ben Affleck before I put him in Armageddon. Shia LeBeouf 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 knew in the world about Megan Fox until I found her and put her in ‘Transformers’. I like to think that I have had some luck in building actors’ careers with my films.”
Talking about her role in Transformers, Megan Fox, said, “I mean, I can’t s**t on this movie because it did give me a career and open all these doors in for me. But I don’t want to blow smoke up people’s a*s. People are well aware this is not a movie about acting.”
Not that she can act, she's in both of those
Rob | July 4, 2009Not that she can act, she’s in both of those films because she looks good, not because she’s a classically trained actress.
I at least hope that Shia tapped that before he had to do any more serious amounts of time in front of the camera with her.
MEGAN FOX IS THE BEST EVER!

meghan | September 25, 2009yeah um sorry michael bay hate to break your little heart but I’ve seen her long before you casted her for transformers.
totally agree with Rob on this. She can barely act,
jessss | September 25, 2009totally agree with Rob on this. She can barely act, I mean my sister can probably do a better job than her and she’s in drama school. I think that Megan Fox is wayyy over rated, and she’s trying too hard to look like Angelina Jolie, a true beauty.
