At this stage of her career, Megan Fox has seen and done it all, and has likely received headlines for it, too. Whether it’s because of her work on the big screen, her appearances on popular TV shows, or something to do with her love life, she knows how to get people talking, and it has helped her remain a prominent figure in pop culture for years on end.
In more recent news, the actress posted a picture to social media, and while that on its own is enough to generate some chatter, Fox got herself into H๏τ water once she clapped back at comments.
Things got messy in a hurry, and we have all the details below!
Megan Fox’s PH๏τo And Subsequent Defense Caused Controversy On Social Media
In the shifting world of social media, celebrities are constantly under the watchful eyes of fans and critics alike. Megan Fox found herself at the center of a social media storm after posting a seemingly innocent pH๏τo from a Super Bowl party on her social media page. The pH๏τo sparked an immediate barrage of comments from her followers.
The now-infamous pH๏τo captures Fox alongside her fiancé, Machine Gun Kelly, and a few people you might recognize, enjoying what seems to be a fun moment at a party. However, what may have seemed like an innocent snapsH๏τ to Fox quickly turned into a controversy.
Fans were quick to point out Fox’s physical appearance, which is a surefire way to get a conversation started in the worst way possible.
Fox then defended herself, and this is where things took a turn for the worst.
“Oh my god guys look how different i…dont look at all,” Fox wrote alongside two pH๏τos of her Super Bowl hangout.
“Turns out it was just a shadowy cell phone pic of me looking like a ukrainian blowup doll. When in REALITY i look like one of those super expensive silicone real Sєx dolls you can only get in japan,” the actress wrote.
Big mistake.
It was at that moment that Fox began dealing with the consequences of her actions.
“In reality, you look like a 40-year-old woman and it has nothing to do with the beautiful girls from Ukraine,” model Arina Lubiteleva commented.
“it’s very rude of you to speak like that about Ukrainian women, that’s how you showed yourself,” another user wrote.
Fox was quick to defend herself, notably to the latter comment.
“Dear god. that is NOT what i meant. ukranian women are H๏τ af and so in my imagination the blowup dolls would also be H๏τ. let a girl make a joke for f**** sake,” she said.
This is a touchy subject for Fox, who, according to PEOPLE, previously opened up about body dysmorphia.
“I have body dysmorphia — I don’t ever see myself the way other people see me,” she said. “There’s never a point in my life where I loved my body, never, ever,” the actress said.
“When I was little, that was an obsession I had of, like, but I should look this way. And why I had an awareness of my body that young I’m not sure, and it definitely wasn’t environmental because I grew up in a very religious environment where bodies weren’t even acknowledged,” she added.
This incident was yet another controversy for the actress, who seems to be a magnet for negative attention.
Fox’s Much-Publicized Romance With MGK Has Sparked Public Discourse
Fox and MGK are a popular A-list couple at the moment, but they have not been free of controversy.
In 2023, reports surfaced that things were bad between the two. Alleged cheating was the main talking point.
“Fox started her social-media purge by deleting Instagram pH๏τos of her and MGK together and unfollowing her fiancé,” The L.A. Times reported.
After returning from a social media hiatus, Fox took things into her own hands, and this is where things really got interesting for those that had been following the story.
“There has been no third party interference in this relationship of any kind. That includes, but is not limited to…actual humans, DMs, AI bots or succubus demons,” she wrote.
“While I do hate to rob you of running random baseless news stories that would have been much more accurately written by ChatGPT, you need to let this story die and leave all of these innocent people alone now,” she added.
Megan Fox’s recent social media controversy serves as a reminder that fame comes with a hefty price that only a few are willing to pay.
