Several years later, when Fox auditioned for Bay’s Transformers, She said the audition was in a studio parking lot with “several” other crew members and employees present. Although Fox was asked to provocatively hold tools and pose around Bay’s sports car, she “was never” asked to undress or do “anything” similar. “While I greatly appreciate the flow of support, I think I need to clarify some of the details, as they have been lost in the narration of the events and cast a sinister shadow that, in my opinion, does not really belong.” she wrote. “At least not where it’s currently projected.”
