She was right about Transformers set


She correctly identified it as an "unsafe set" in 2009 during an interview. The crew and company scoffed at her claims in a letter and called her claim ridiculous. Only a year later was a woman left permanently brain damaged for life as an extra in the third film. I believe Megan Fox actually walked off set and quit. The studio was forced to pay the woman an 18 milion dollar lawsuit as for her severe injuries.

I think Megan Fox was pretty accurate. She also claimed Michael Bay was a "creep" on set. Of course Hollywood blacklisted her for many years. But she wasn't wrong.

The anti Semitism story and firing from Spielberg was also a lie. The woman quit. The set was dangerous and the director was a creep.

Megan has also spoken out on work place safety for actors in a documentary a few years ago. She herself was almost severely injured during a stunt with bombs on the Transformers 2 set.

I once listened to a lecture from someone in banking about the GFC, something about "you can't stop, you must feed the (money making) machine".

You don't want to stand in front of that steamroller.

Right, but a talentless, plastic Fem-hypocrite.

The legend goes.... She said Bay was like working for Hitler. Steven Spielberg caught wind and told Bay he had to let her go because Spielberg was offended. Fox and Bay had made up a few years after the incident, as he had her star in his TMNT 2014 film.
