For saying Michael Bay is like Hitler on set

Admittedly, for all her stunning looks, Megan Fox knows little in the ways of diplomacy and, ever so often, she gets to have her name dragged through the mud in the media. Following a series of comments she made about “Transformers” director Michael Bay being like Hitler on the set of the film, three members of the crew posted a scathing letter to the fans on Bay’s official website.

In the meantime, though, Bay pulled the letter down and posted, instead, a message saying he did not condone it and that he was actually looking forward to working with Fox again, on “Transformers 3.” The three members clearly felt differently about that: although they refused to reveal their identity, saying they would never work with Paramount again if they did, they did say that Ms. Princess was a pain in the neck, a phony who manipulated the media and was clearly not even half the actress she claimed to be in interviews.

“This is an open letter to all Michael Bay fans. We are three crew members that have worked with Michael for the past ten years. Last week we read the terrible article with inflammatory, truly trashing quotes by the Ms. Fox about Michael Bay. This letter is to set a few things straight. Yes, Megan has great eyes, a tight stomach we spray with glycerin, and an awful silly Marilyn Monroe tattoo plastered on her arm that we cover up to keep the moms happy.” the crew members write.

The letter goes on to say about how Bay found this “shy, inexperienced girl” and, against everything the world told him, asked people to trust him when he cast her in “Transformers,” virtually turning her into the star she is now. It’s because of Bay that Fox is now known as the second Angelina, the letter reads, the only difference being that – the difference that only the people on the set get to note – Megan is not Angelina, because she’s unprofessional, spoiled and a horrible person, who cares about nothing except herself.

“She’s no Angelina. You see, Angelia is a professional. 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. […] She’s as about ungracious a person as you can ever fathom. She shows little interest in the crew members around her. We work to make her look good in every way, but she’s absolutely never appreciative of anyone’s hard work. Never a thank you. All the crewmembers have stopped saying hi to Ms. Princess because she never says hello back.” the crew members write.

As noted above, the letter is no longer available on Michael Bay’s website, having been replaced by the director’s apology of sorts. However, you can read it in its entirety here.
