At the age of 5, Megan started dancing and applied to a theatrical society, later she joined a school choir and enrolled swimming team. The girl took part in a few city talent contests, even tried herself as a model at the age of 13.

Megan makes no bones about being bullied at school. Sometimes it happened she was found eating in a ladies’ room because in canteen children were throwing tomato sauce at her. Actress told that the problem was not in her appearance, but that she had a much better relationship with schoolboys than other girls. So the other schoolgirls were infuriated by this fact. In high school, the relationship was the same. She was hated for not being afraid to defend her own opinion, even in aggressive ways. None of the classmates, except her, could afford themselves to wear a ballet-skirt with military boots, dye their hair in orange and then appear in school wearing such a uniform.

Megan was meant to appear in the third part of “Transformers” (Dark of the Moon, 2011), but a scandal happened. Shortly before the shooting, Megan Fox complained about Michael Bay’s strict disposition comparing him with Hitler. The executive producer of the movie Steven Spielberg was outraged and ordered to get rid of the actress. Michael Bay himself did not have any claims against Fox, but the other cast criticized Fox quite violently: “While filming the second part of the movie Megan was unable to prove herself as a professional. It felt like we are watching the second Angelina Jolie, but we were wrong. Zero talent. And the Marilyn Monroe face tattoo… Oh, I could barely stand it”. Megan’s place was quickly taken by Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Jason Statham’s latest affair.

Soon after the “Transformers” sequel, Megan Fox starred in “Jennifer’s Body” as a school beauty star slightly turning into a bloodthirsty zombie. Her partner on the set became Amanda Seyfried.

In 2015, it revealed that after 11 years of relationships the star couple split up again. Fox confessed that they were living separately for the last few months and practically did not communicate with each other. The official reason for the discord in the family of the former spouses was hidden by themselves. But it was rumored that Brian was jealous of his wife’s growing popularity, while he almost stopped flashing on the screens because of trauma (in 2014, a drunk driver crashed into their car).

In the spring of 2020, it became known that Megan was still divorcing Brian Austin. In addition, at the same time, she was spotted in the car rapper Machine Gun Kelly. Later, she said, the marriage with Brian had become a "self-imposed prison" for her.

I had this incredible breakthrough, and I realized that I had been living in a self-imposed prison for so long because I let other people tell me who I was or what I wasn’t.
