An old interview of Hollywood actress Megan Fox recently went viral on social media where she revealed how she was asked to dance under a waterfall for a scene in Bad Boys 2 when she was just 15 years old. Fans came out in support for Megan after the interview when viral, and a lot of netizens slammed Michael Bay, the director of Bad Boys 2, for asking Megan Fox to film the scene. Megan has now responded to her fans on social media and has issued a clarification to her old interview.
"Please hear me when I thank you for your support. But these specific instances were inconsequential in a long and arduous journey along which I have endured some genuinely harrowing experiences in a ruthlessly misogynistic industry," she wrote.

The actress wrote in her note, “I know that a discussion has erupted online surrounding some of my experiences in Hollywood and the subsequent mishandling of this information by the media and society in general. While I greatly appreciate the outpouring of support, I do feel I need to clarify some of the details as they have been lost in the retelling of the events and cast a sinister shadow that doesn’t really, in my opinion, belog. At least not where it’s currently being projected."
“I did 'work' (me pretending to know how to hold a wrench) on one of Michael's Ferrari's during one of the audition scenes. It was at the Platinum Dunes studio parking lot, there were several other crew members and employees present and I was at no point undressed or anything similar,” she assured.
“So as far as this particular audition story I was not underaged at the time and I was not made to 'wash' or work on someone's cars in a way that was extraneous from the material in the actual script. I hope that whatever opinions are formed around these episodes will at least be seeded in the facts of the events.”
Megan addressed the rumours of her alleged mistreatment at the hands of director Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg, and said, "When it comes to my direct experiences with Michael, and Steven for that matter, I was never assaulted or preyed upon in what I felt was a sexual manner."
Her post was well-received by her fans!
