Michael Bay Says Megan Fox Should See A Doctor?
Director of the Transformers franchise, Michael Bay, announced today via his website that Transformers 3 will be in theaters on July 1, 2011.
He also posted this little doozy:
“Megan Fox, welcome back. I promise no alien robots will harm you in any way during the production of this motion picture,Please consult your Physician when working under my direction because some side effects can occur, such as mild dizziness, intense nausea, suicidal tendencies, depression, minor chest hair growth, random internal hemorrhaging and inability to sleep. As some directors may be hazardous to your health, please consult your Doctor to determine if this is right for you. Pain and Gain is right after shooting of Trans 3.”
I wonder if Megan signed on for sure? It sounds like it.
Is Michael Bay taking another opportunity to slam Megan Fox? Or just trying to drum up publicity for Transformers 3?

Fact Or Fiction: Did Michael Bay Have Megan Fox Audition For 'Transformers' By Washing His Car?
This sounds so outlandish I had to label it "Fact or Fiction," but Hollywood is pretty outlandish, so I don't know what to think! 'Transformers' director Michael Bay supposedly had Megan Fox audition for her role in the first 'Transformers' film by having her wash his car: while he filmed her. This is according to British movie critic Jason Solomons.
Solomons writes, "He made her wash his Ferrari while he
filmed her. (Fox) said she didn’t know what had happened to that
footage. When I put it to Bay himself, he looked suitably abashed -
'Er, I don’t know where it is either'. "
Maybe this is why there's some tension between the two?
What do you think: fact or fiction?

Michael Bay Just Gave James Frey A Million Little Pennies
Remember all that drama with Oprah and James Frey? I bought into it. I cried with him while watching her show on his book, 'A Million Little Pieces' and then watched him squirm through the retraction.
Fast forward a few years and here we all are.
'Transformers' director Michael Bay and DreamWorks just bought the rights for James' newest sci-fi adventure, 'I Am Number 4'.The book is the first of 6 James has planned for this new series.
How much did James earn? The Hollywood Reporter is saying "high six figures".
The book's storyline involves alien teens assimilating into an Earth high school after their home planet is destroyed by an enemy species. And wouldn't you just know, the bad aliens track the good E.T.s right back here to terra firma
Sounds like a money maker... for everyone involved. Wonder if Oprah approves? :)
Director Wishes Megan Fox Was More Grateful
Megan Fox reportedly criticized 'Transformers' director Michael Bay for focusing more on special effects than acting. Although Michael said he "doesn't mind" her remarks, he had a response for them.
"Well, that's Megan Fox for you," Bay tell the Wall Street Journal. "She says some very ridiculous things because she's 23 years old and she still has a lot of growing to do. You roll your eyes when you see statements like that and think, 'Okay
Megan, you can do whatever you want. I got it,' he goes on. "I 100 percent disagree with her."
Michael credits himself with building a number of actors' careers, including Shia LaBeouf ('Transformers'), Nicolas Cage, Ben Affleck ('Armageddon'), Will Smith and Martin Lawrence ('Bad Boys'), so he wishes Megan were "a little more grateful."
"Nobody in the world knew about Megan Fox until I found her and put her in Transformers," he says. "I like to think that I've had some luck in building actors' careers with my films."
What do you think: is Megan's criticism valid? And was she right to make it publicly? Or should Michael just ignore the whole thing?
And on a totally different (but equally important ;) note, what do you think of Megan's purple stiletos?! (Check out the thumbnail.)
