Megan Fox, the Hollywood diva, had a promising career that began with the Olsen twins’ Holiday in the Sun. She rose to fame after starring in Michael Bay’s 2007 box office smash Transformers and went on to become one of the industry’s most desirable women until her infamous stance against the Transformers director put an end to it all. Megan’s career has had its share of highs and lows since then, but her unapologetic statements have frequently sparked debate. Now that Megan has turned a year older, here are a few times when she drew everyone’s attention with highly debated moves.

Megan missed out on returning to Transformers: Dark of the Moon due to the success of the first and second films. During a 2009 interview, she made the comparison between director Micheal Bay and Hitler. Micheal “wants to create this insane, infamous mad man reputation,” she told Wonderland Magazine, describing him as “a nightmare to work with.” It was the lowest point in her career, she says.

Megan accused Micheal of exploiting her during the Transformers auditions after taking the hit. She later opened up about why she refused to talk about it after receiving backlash for it, telling the New York Times, “People couldn’t understand it because it was ahead of its time. Instead, I was turned down due to characteristics that are now being praised in other women who have come forward.” Megan was not given a fair chance to say her piece and was ‘cancelled’ for no fault of her own, the world learned much later.

Megan was caught shoplifting cosmetics at a Walmart store before making her film debut. “I don’t know if the ban was for life,” she told Express, “but I was caught and convicted of stealing Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen cosmetics from a Walmart when I was 14 or 15.”

Megan’s good looks occasionally sparked rumours of cosmetic surgery. To put an end to it, she posted a series of photos with the caption ‘Things You Can’t Do with Your Face When You Have Botox.’ Megan was reportedly photographed with various facial expressions in order to dispel rumours about her frozen face.

Megan got engaged to Machine Gun Kelly, a singer-rapper, and their blood proposal video made headlines. After the proposal, the couple claimed they drank each other’s blood, dividing social media users. “I guess to drink each other’s blood might mislead people or people are imagining us with goblets and we’re like Game of Thrones, drinking each other’s blood,” she later clarified to Glamour Magazine. Although it’s only a few drops, we do consume each other’s blood on occasion for ritual purposes.”
