Looks to me like Fox is getting,...well...cocky. At least she's a realist, though. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Megan Fox voiced her real feelings about the film that turned her into a star virtually overnight.


“I can’t s**t on this movie because it did give me a career and open all the doors for me. But I don’t want to blow smoke up people’s a**. People are well aware that that this is not a movie about acting.”


Well, she isn't known for her ingenuity; but at least the girl is honest. She has a lot to owe to Michael Bay, and if I were her, I would keep my mouth shut, or at least refrain from using "Sh**" and "a**" in an interview.

We've previously reported how sentimental Director Michael Bay has gotten in the past when he's had to come to the defense of his summer blockbusters; this time was no different. Seems Bay took what Fox said pretty personally.

“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...“Nic 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.”


Michael Bay is certainly very modest, isn't he?

@EisforExtinction: Everything involving Will Smith is usually good.

I think Megan should be grateful that Transformers isn't and acting movie, considering that she can't act.

Will Smith is  a great guy thats why... As for Mega Fox(yes MEGA Fox) I like her for her looks not her wisdom...

Did she really think she was cast for her acting, just look at wardrobe.

Oh people are just so funny squabbling over how they became this big star and all.  I will tell you this though, Megan Fox's choice of vocabulary just shows how well educated this one really is.  Way too funny, just too damn funny.

What. A. Classy. Lady.

 

she should be happy that Bay saved her from becoming a washed up lifetime/ABC family actress, but then again at least those actresses knew how to act at one point in their caree. i mean thats pretty a$$y of her to say

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that I don't think most people like Megan Fox.  Not sure what it is but something is just screaming that to me.....  Or is it just me?

Bless her, at least she's still realistic.  But what's up with Bay's ego?  He's just saying 'I make super stars' :p

Megan Fox better not burn any bridges she doesn't have alot of talent and needs the autobots and decepticons, and she wasn't as hot in the first movie as the blonde haired australian actress in the first movie or Isabel Lucas in the second movie.
