The Transformers star and director have had their conflicts for a very long time, with rumors and everything in between. An interview in 2009 of Megan Fox and Jimmy Kimmel has recently got circulated on social media this week and made quite a scene around these two.
"I had just turned 15 and I was an extra in Bad Boys II. They 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," Fox told Kimmel in the clip.
"He approved it and they said, '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."
"Perfectly wholesome," Kimmel commented.
"At 15! I was in 10th grade. That's kind of a microcosm of how Bay's mind works," Fox continued.
"Yeah, well that's really a microcosm of how all our minds work, but some of us have the decency to repress those thoughts and pretend that they don't exist," Kimmel said.

Fox got famous worldwide in the first two Transformers films but was dropped from the franchise after she made comments about the director in an infamous 2009 Wonderland interview. As the clip got circulated, fans show sympathy towards Fox by flooding social media with supportive messages.
The actress, however, didn't appear in the Dark Of The Moon movie of Transformers, but Bay insisted there was no bad blood between them.
"Megan loves to get a response. And she does it in kind of the wrong way. I'm sorry, Megan. I'm sorry I made you work 12 hours. I'm sorry that I'm making you show up on time. Movies are not always warm and fuzzy." Bay said.
In an interview with The New York Times, Megan said: "My words were taken and used against me in a way that was – at that time in my life, at that age and dealing with that level of fame – really painful,"
In recent years, Fox hasn't so into acting as she's raised three children with husband Brian Austin Green. After 10 years of marriage, the couple revealed they were separating. Now, Megan is dating rapper Machine Gun Kelly.
