Tyrese Gibson Gushes About 'Sweet Girl' Megan Fox

In the week of Megan Fox bashing for the sake of promoting “Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon,” Tyrese Gibson has something nice to say. Megan who was reportedly fired by Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg for her “Hitler” comments found herself in the middle a kiss and tell with former co-star Shia LaBeouf. Shia shared with all that he had a fling with Megan. On to the next…Tyrese tells Popeater about Megan,

“Of course I miss Megan. Megan is a sweet girl. I’ve never had an issue with her. It’s always been good. I know people are talking a lot of mess about her, but I just hope she has a strong stomach.”

“Having a franchise that she’s been a part of from the beginning, and not being able to have her on board is probably the most difficult,” he adds. “Sometimes things don’t work out, but I wish her well. In business, her career, her personal life. She’s a sweet girl.”

Of Tyrese isn’t immune to troubled encounters with director Michael Bay,

“He’s very aggressive with himself. Very demanding of himself. He has very high expectations of not just the cast, but the crew. He’s cursed me out a few times. I cursed him out back. I don’t really curse people out in person. I tend to do it through email. He curses me out in person.”

So what happens when you fire a former hottie and work with a “difficult” director, “It’s the best Transformers in the series, hands down. The scope, magnitude, focus, adrenaline. All across the board.” Or is Tyrese just saying that…:-)

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
