In recent years, the Hope & Faith star has attracted the spotlight (mostly negative) for the unusual romance chemistry she shares with rapper Machine Gun Kelly. In 2022, she revealed that they consume each other’s blood for ritual purposes. On the back of it, the couple received plenty of backlash but she stood strong and their topsy-turvy relationship continues to flourish.
Things on the romantic front are calm at the moment, but Fox remains at the receiving end of social media scrutiny, and she’s still sharply answering back.
Why Megan Fox Is Getting Criticized on Social Media
Despite all the criticism Megan Fox gets on social media on a regular basis, the popular actress still boasts a huge fan following on Instagram – 21.3 million to be precise.
Accordingly, she used the platform to promote a good cause, asking her followers through her Instagram Story to check a GoFundMe link and help raise funds for her manicurist Brittney Boyce’s father’s pancreatic cancer treatments.
But as is typically the case with social media, some users chose to highlight something negative instead of focusing on the positive cause. They took a dig at the New Girl actress for asking her followers to chip in to reach the original $30k target instead of paying the sum (relatively nothing considering how successful she is) herself.
Fox isn’t the one to take “weirdos” comments quietly and she gave it back as good through another story, which read:
“Hey weirdos. Do any of you have the emotional intelligence to consider that maybe Brit doesn’t want her celebrity clients donating large sums of money to her because it creates a dynamic in her working relationships that makes her uncomfortable? So instead she asked me to post the GoFundMe so that many people could donate small amounts of money to help them reach their goal.”
The 37-year-old makes a valid point and it’s understandable why her manicurist didn’t want to put her working relationship into an awkward position by asking for direct financial help. Regardless, instead of helping, some users decided to have a field day. And Fox, in her typical style, invited them to come back with a better plot to test her resolve again.

How Megan Fox Got Stuck Between a Scuffle
The unwarranted hate and subsequent controversies that follow Fox and her partner Machine Gun Kelly aren’t limited to just the internet comments and memes.
Early this month, the couple had a nightmare outing at the Orange County Fair when a man allegedly attempted to attack the Rap Devil singer.
When their bodyguard tried to defend Kelly by catching that man, the Rogue actress got stuck in the scuffle and got slammed into a barricade. Though, she was quickly grabbed by her fiancee and escorted out.
