Megan Fox says she left Transformers 3, she wasn’t fired from it. Of course Megan says that now, because she doesn’t want other producers to think she is a spoiled, elitist diva, like Michael Bay does! But Michael and Megan seemed to have started out on the wrong foot anyway, with her interview including a car wash.

More pictures of Megan after the dump…

Why would Megan leave a movie franchise that made her famous? Because really, Transformers made her what she is today.

The actress is slamming speculation she was booted from the third installment of the Transformers action film franchise.

Megan Fox will not be starring in Transformers 3,” reps for the actress, 24, tell PEOPLE. “It was her decision not to return. She wishes the franchise the best.”

Does Megan’s best include that heavy equipment land on Michael? I really don’t think she left on her own…she might have gotten wind of what Michael was thinking and decided to jump the gun and say she quit, saving herself from humiliation. What do you think really happened with the casting?
