Megan Fox Was An Extra in Bad Boys 2

megan fox bad boys 2

Did you know that Megan Fox was an extra in Michael Bay’s Bad Boys 2? While appearing on Jimmy Kimmel, Fox talked about how Michael Bay made her dance in a bikini underneath a waterfall in a club on the set of the Bad Boys sequel at age 15:

The first time I ever met him, I was 15, and I was an extra on Bad Boys 2. We were shooting this club scene, and they brought me in, and I was wearing a stars and stripes bikini and a red cowboy hat, and six-inch heels. And they took me to Mike and he approved it. And they said, ‘You know, Michael, she’s 15, so you can’t sit her at the bar and she can’t have a drink in her hand.’ So his solution to that problem was to then have me dancing underneath a waterfall getting soaking wet. And that’s… At 15 and I was in tenth grade. So that’s sort of a microcosm of how Bay’s mind works.

You can watch a short clip of Fox’s appearance in Bad Boys 2 after the jump, as well as Fox’s appearance on Kimmel where she talks about her Bad Boys 2 appearance and how she’s not allowed to tell you the truth for insurance reasons (that filming Transformers 2 was not safe).

    Bay is one sick fuck.
  • Peter
    And Megan is one cash-starved whore for still doing it
  • She was a 15-year-old extra. Calm down.
  • lux
    She was a 15-year-old extra one cash-starved whore for still doing it.
  • agreed, I have no respect for him , due to how he treats female characters in his films. Ever since I heard about the audition where he forced Fox to wash a car while being filmed... ugh, WTF.

    bloody sick pig.
  • CheshireAna
    I highly doubt he "forced" her. She had the opportunity to agree to do it or not, and the fact that she did agree to it is on her, not him.
  • Matt
    He made her wash a car to audition for a role in which she does pretty much the same thing the entire time. She was there for sex appeal, so of course he should audition her for sex appeal.

    You can call him a sick pig, but he did what every Transformers fan did. Acted the voyeur to a woman all too willing to show herself off.
  • Andrew
    Classy!
  • Muffin7
    I'm impressed that she knows what the word "microcosm" means. See, you learn something new everyday!
  • What the hell is going on between Fox and Bay? The weight thing, the secret carwashing videotape, the back-and-forth comments. Next he'll be pulling her pigtails in the playground.
  • Sketch
    Or in a sex tape... They're quarreling like ex lovers or something. That clip was so fast it didn't look like she was in water though.
  • wittyphrase
    /Facepalm. I love how Megan Fox has been running her mouth about Michael Bay. She was scoring all those leading roles in really cerebral films until Bay found her walking the streets in a bikini and a cowboy hat and then started using her sexuality on camera. When he sprayed her with a hose he really crossed the line though....

    How Bay's mind works...explosions + saturated colors + [(really attractive women)(number of lingering shots of those women)] + summer months = millions of dollars.
  • jerry
    Mention should be made that, if Bay never got Fox's legal guardian to sign off on her employment agreement (and since Megan has said in other earlier interviews about her job on BB2 that her mother had no idea she was doing so, that is not very likely,) then Bay could still be in a lot of trouble with the film and actor's unions. Not very smart of Paramount to allow this story to keep going.
  • uncle remus
    i just realized something watching the jimmy kimmel clip...her neck is either huge or swollen or her head is to small for her body,,,still hot tho
  • THE CRAZY MOOSE MAN
    that's gross. I never found her attractive, but she's not ugly either.... but you pointing out her neck just grossed me out.
  • Pie
    Yes Uncle Remus, I know <strikethru>the catfish</strikethur> Megan's neck is huge!
  • Rockie
    fox & the hound......making dollars like gangbusters
  • jimmytwo2
    what an ingrate she turned out to be.
  • Octoberist
    michael bay is such a dirty old man. Is he even married?
  • Geez... what is she going to reveal next? That they had sex too? I'm waiting for that shoe to drop...

    Timber....!
  • vpontis
    Everyone is talking about how much of a deusch Michael Bay is for doing this stuff. And I agree. But isn't Megan Fox just as guilty for letting him do this stuff to her? It seems that she just reeks fakeness and she just wants more attention by insulting her director, albeit a perverted, shitty director.
  • FunkyMunkey
    That club scene was possibly the most ridiculous that Michael Bay has ever filmed.

    People taking pills like it gives them an instant fucking orgasm? What the fuck... has he ever been to a nightclub full of people on ecstasy? Where's the guy in the corner, rolling his head while he chews the inside of his cheeks? Or the girl staring and poking at her belly button 'cos it's started to look like Jabba the Hut?

    Maybe he was trying to protect Megan Fox's fragile young mind, or maybe he's a hack.
  • Captain Awesome
    Well you can easily tell that Bay has absolutely no idea about club scenes and drugs from that segment alone. Bay seems like such a straight-laced creepy type. That he probably just goes by word-of-mouth for lots of the references in his films.
  • tommygun101
    I think both are right about the other...
  • KingCarlos
    Hilarious - You couldn't make this up!

    Michael Bay: Hollywood's #1 arrogant, racist, sexist paedophile.

    FUCK YOU MICHAEL BAY.
  • Guest
    lol i agree with you on that

    Paramount Pictures most be shocked about all this new info
  • drchicago
    I remember hearing her say this in an EW interview.
  • Johan
    "At 15 and I was in tenth grade. So that’s sort of a microcosm of how Bay’s mind works."

    LOL!

    At the same time I don´t get why she has been complaining and whining about Michael Bays style of story telling and directing. Its´as if she didn´t know what she signed on for the first time, or as if she doesn´t enjoy all the fame. His answer the other day, that it was he who had made her into a star was perfect too... Wonder if she one day will say she regretted to ever working with Bay, cause it was he who typecasted her, and now no one wants to hire her other than to play a hot but dumb brunette. Wouldn´t surprise me at all.
  • dylansmeder
    No, I've heard Michael Bay is really bad towards women. An associate of mine was once at a party with him and he totally disrespected my associate's wife in front of him. Dude deserves to get socked in the face by Brock Lesnar.
  • Pie
    I heard the EXACT same thing from one of my teachers, and that Bay disrespected his wife. Classy guy.
  • wittyphrase
    Are people seriously getting down on Michael Bay for using sex to sell movies in an industry that is about nothing more than image? Seriously? Megan Fox better take a long hard look at her chosen profession and the people acting pissed off about it strike me as pretty short sighted now.
  • catch42
    Yes using sex to sell movies - the sex in this case being a 15 year old girl. 18+ and I'd say well fair enough she has no right to complain.

    But having 15 year old girls in bikinis dancing sexily and covered in water? Hi welcome to America's hypocricy about children and sex! Even looking at a girl under 18 in real life means you're a paedophile! But having a 15 year old dancing like a stripper in a film? That's fine!

    There's a lot of things 15 year old girls would willingly do to become a famous actress. That doesn't make it ok or make it ok for Bay to take advantage of that.
  • wittyphrase
    You see, you're using the term "ok" as if that has any meaning. If you want to make a judgment call about "America's hypocricy [sic]" try making that determination in a way that's a little more absolute rather than absolutely subjective. I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on matters of the law here, but I'd be willing to bet that the studio that put that movie out has an army of lawyers that examine all of that stuff and determine whether something is legal or not. If it's legal and you don't like it, then don't watch it. If it were flagrantly illegal I doubt it would've gotten in. If she lied or forged documents to get the part, she has some culpability there as well.

    There's nothing hypocritical about it. Also, looking at a girl under 18 in real life does not mean you're a pedophile. I'm not going to get into too many details beyond saying that individual states have different ages of consent that are not necessarily the same as the age when someone is legally an adult or the "age of reason." Many are below 18. She was part of an establishing shot that lasted about two seconds. Play the video above - she is shot entirely from the neck up. For all you know she could have been wearing a strapless evening gown. Reading some of the reactions people are having to this across the internet you'd think she was in a scene getting down with a biker gang.

    No, Megan Fox is just beginning to realize that the tool she has been using to get herself out there is going to limit her choices in the long run and so she's biting the hand that fed her. This will come back to bite her in the ass.
  • catch42
    I didn't use the phrase "ok"...

    I'm not sure why you brought in the law, as I wasn't discussing that. I was discussing the general attitude in American society where children are both off limits and overly sexualised at the same time. I'm talking about shows like "To catch a predator" that gleefully watches a guy get caught out going round to a 16 year olds house and he's painted to be some horrible and disgusting monster that needs to be put down.

    Yet at the same time youth/teenage girls are sexualised, girls gone wild deals almost exclusively in "barely legal" girls getting their tits out.

    Then we have Michael Bay finding nothnig wrong with putting a 15 year old girl on a club set whether she was in the film much or not is irrelevent, the fact that Bay was putting her in a situation where she was only there to be sexualised and had no problem with that shows a bit of a fucked up mindset from Bay. And seems only to continue to paint a rather poor image of the US's realtionship with sex and young girls.
  • wittyphrase
    1. Yes, you did. "That doesn't make it ok or make it ok."

    You're comparing apples to oranges here. To Catch a Predator looks for people who actually prey on children to engage in sexual acts with them. There's no sex act involved in filming a girl from the neck up dancing. To what tits being out are you referring to?

    News flash, we're not living in the 1800s anymore. There is absolutely nothing fucked up about Michael Bay's mindset. The fucked up mindset is yours for inferring something that's a problem where it doesn't exist. And this brings us back to my original point and why I brought up the law. Whether something is "fine" or "ok" is subjective. What's fine to you may be objectionable to me or vice versa. But if Michael Bay operates within the framework of the law then no one has any right to demonize the man for making money. Again, "fine," "ok," and "general attitude," are particularly meaningless terms especially from an anonymous person on the internet. How do you know what the "general attitude" in American society is? What a horribly gross and self-serving exaggeration you're using to make a poorly conceived point.

    Also, you've probably got very different segments of the population watching To Catch A Predator than Bad Boys II, but it's more convenient to your hyperbole to consider all Americans the same, isn't it?
  • Johan
    "That´s the microcosm of how all our minds work, but some of us have the decency to repress those thoughts..."

    LOL! Shit his answer was even better.

    As I said before, I´m glad Bay discovered Megan. I wasn´t really a big fan of her in the first movie, but after Transformers 2 I totally surrendered to how fucking hot she actually is. Fox was brought to this earth (by aliens) for one purpuse alone and Bay has discovered that purpose, give the man some credit and show at least a little gratefullness, Fox!
  • Ancient old bro. This was in Entertainment Weekly a week before Transformers came out.
  • quintushalls
    She has never appeared nude, therefore I don't care.
  • chrisbudke
    What was she even doing at a club scene while in 6 inch heels and a bikini AND at the age of 15. She's an idiot. Bay isn't some pedophile. Fox is just an attention whore because after Transformers she will go nowhere and fade into B-movie crap before she's 30.
  • Harvey Dent
    she is gonna blackballl herself.
  • Robert
    I'm sorry, but she's a dumb b*tch. SHE LET ALL THESE THINGS 'HAPPEN' TO HER!

    Michael Bays only fault is using sex appeal to make movies/money...wow, big shocker there. Her going back and saying all this crap like its his fault or he's bad is retarded. SHE WAS A WILLING PARTICIPANT!

    Somebody isn't gonna be coming back for Transformers 3...and good riddance. She's so self-righteous its disgusting.
  • Bull
    You aren't legally a willing participant if you're a minor. Check yourself.

    Also, Transformers sucked so have fun watching the third installment of this dogshit franchise. Are you a big Tyrese fan or something?
  • RocknRolla
    Is she actively trying to ruin her career? Does she want out of her Transformers contract? I don't get where this is coming from. What is her game? After all, Michael Bay is here to stay. And yeah, it isn't like she's a dime a dozen. There are plenty of other hot chicks that'd kill for and could do her job. Nobody believes she's busting at the seams with talent.

    So yeah, she needs to grow up. Just shut up already and take advantage of that big break before those couple minutes are up.
  • deathmetalhero
    these two should bone and get it over with.
  • John
    This just in: Michael Bay was once tricked into having sex with a milking machine through a hole in a barn by a farmer who promised Bay sexual intercourse with his daughter. Michael Bay couldn't be reached to comment.

    What I mean to say is this: the man is a joke.
  • Robert
    Wow...well thought out comments there John.

    Your missing the whole point of this. He's not being two faced about this. As another person said Michael Bay = Summer movies, explosions, sex appeal = MONEY

    Everyone knows that...Michael Bay will admit that

    But for this little twerp to go around acting all taken advantage of or beat down...trying to smear Bay with comments and inuendo is THE BIGGEST CROCK OF SH*T EVER!

    No body made her do anything...she is of no significant beauty or talent. And she has the nerve to act like this after Michael Bay gave her the opportunity. At any point during any of the sh*t she says she could have WALKED AWAY. So walk away if you dont like be exploited for your good looks and lack of talent...OR...take the money and SHUT THE F*CK UP!
  • John
    Umm... a joke? Have you heard of it? Because that's what I made and that's what Michael Bay is.
  • jj
    who is this megan?
  • Guest
    i bet soon a sextape of Megan Fox and Michael Bay will be released on the net.
  • Erick
    actually, Fox's math is off by at least a year (that is, if her birthdate on IMDB is correct) if you figure in "Bad Boys II's" estimated production time and it's release. plus, there didn't seem to be a bikini or waterfall in the posted clip. and if she's implying Bay is a sleaze for doing what he did to her when she was 15, then i wonder what we're supposed to make of her appearance as jailbait in Daisy Duke shorts and a bikini in an episode of "Two and a Half Men" the following year where she's exposed and "exploited" far more than she was in "BB II" or either "Transformers" movie
