Transformers siren Megan Fox's motormouth has finally caught up with her.
Hot on the heels of an avalanche of bad press after she publicly compared Transformers director Michael Bay to Adolf Hitler, the starlet's nutty comments have come back to bite her on the bum.
The 23-year-old actress, who played mechanic Michaela Barnes in the Transformers flicks, recently said in an interview: "He's [Bay] like Napoleon and he wants to create this insane, infamous mad-man reputation.
"He wants to be like Hitler on his sets, and he is. So he's a nightmare to work for but when you get him away from set, and he's not in director mode, I kind of really enjoy his personality because he's so awkward, so hopelessly awkward.
"He has no social skills at all. And it's endearing to watch him."
'Megan Fox is unbearable, ungracious'
Three anonymous crew members who worked with Fox on the blockbuster have penned an open letter slamming the pin-up and branded her "dumb", "ungracious", rude and an "unbearable" actress. And that's just the tip of the toxic iceberg.
The crew - who said they'd worked with Bay for ten years - ran the letter on the director's website, and signed it 'Loyal Transformers Crew', but it has subsequently been removed.

In the caustic letter, they describe "the tedious experience of working with the dumb-as-a-rock Megan Fox," and claim they "had the unbearable time of watching her try to act on set."
They also described Fox as "the queen of talking trailer trash and posing like a porn star...so maybe, being a porn star in the future might be a good career option."
Like we said, the letter's vanished from Bay's website, but its contents are out there in the blogosphere. And here:
"We've had the tedious experience of working with the dumb-as-a-rock Megan Fox on both Transformers movies," they wrote.
'Never a thank you'
"We've spent a total of 12 months on set making these two movies... She's as about ungracious a person as you can ever fathom. She shows little interest in the crew members around her. We work to make her look good in every way, but she's absolutely never appreciative of anyone's hard work. Never a thank you.
"All the crewmembers have stopped saying hi to Ms. Princess because she never says hello back. It gets tiring. Many think she just really hates the process of being an actress."
They then described her as a second-rate Angelina Jolie.
"[Bay] granted her the starring role in Transformers, a franchise that forever changed her life; she became one of the most googled and oogled women on earth," they added.
"She was famous! She was the next Angelina Jolie, hooray! Wait a minute, two of us worked with Angelina - second thought - she's no Angelina. You see, Angelia is a professional."
"We know this quite intimately because we've had the tedious experience of working with the dumb-as-a-rock Megan Fox on both Transformers movies."
They added: "When facing the press, Megan is the queen of talking trailer trash and posing like a porn star. And yes we've had the unbearable time of watching her try to act on set, and yes, it's very cringe-able.
"So maybe, being a porn star in the future might be a good career option. But make-up beware, she has a paragraph tattooed to her backside (probably due her rotten childhood) easily another 45 minutes in the chair!"
The anonymous take-down then goes on to accuse the actress, aka "Ms Sour Pants", of not knowing who Hitler is.
"Megan has been late to the sets many times. She goes through the motions that make her exude this sense of misery...
"Megan really is a thankless, classless, graceless, and shall we say unfriendly b****.
The letter concludes: "It's sad how fame can twist people, and even sadder that young girls look up to her. If only they knew who they're really looking up to. But 'fame' is fleeting. We, being behind the scenes, seen em' come and go.
"Hopefully Michael will have Megatron squish her character in the first ten minutes of Transformers 3."
Kapow! Stick that in your handbag, Fox.
Defending Fox
Bay has since piped up and given his take on the Fox character assassination after yanking the crew letter. The seemingly unimpressed director wrote on his website:
"I don't condone the crew letter to Megan. And I don't condone Megan's outlandish quotes. But her crazy quips are part of her crazy charm. The fact of the matter (is) I still love working with her, and I know we still get along. I even expect more crazy quotes from her on Transformers 3."
Talk about airing your dirty (actually, more like filthy) laundry in public. But we thank them for it, obviously. There really is nothing quite like wallowing here in the gutter looking up at the stars...
Fox's faux-pas and subsequent backlash reminded us of this:
