Fox: It was my decision to leave role

ACTRESS Megan Fox’s spokesperson has moved swiftly to dismiss rumours the actress was dropped from the third Transformers movie after publicly criticising moviemaker Michael Bay – insisting it was the star’s decision to leave the franchise.

It was revealed the star will not be playing Shia LaBeouf’s love interest in the second sequel, due to hit screens next year.

The news came after Fox slammed director Bay, comparing him to Hitler, and revealed he was a “nightmare to work for” and “hopelessly awkward” in 2009 interviews.
