Earlier this week, This Is 40 actress Megan Fox had a little dig at Lindsay Lohan during an interview she was giving. Megan compared Lindsay to Marilyn Monroe and not in a good way. However, Megan has now taken to her Facebook page to clear up the matter.
Marilyn Monroe had many issues in her life
The statement read, “In the newly released article that I did for Esquire, there is a reference that is made to Lindsay Lohan that I would like to clarify before it snowballs into something silly. The journalist and I were discussing why I was removing my Marilyn Monroe tattoo, especially since in his opinion, Marilyn was such a powerful and iconic figure for women.”
It added, “I attempted to draw parallels between Lindsay and Marilyn in order to illustrate my point that while Marilyn may be an icon now, sadly she was not respected and taken seriously while she was still living. Both women were gifted actresses, whose natural talent was lost amongst the chaos and incessant media scrutiny surrounding their lifestyles and their difficulties adhering to studio schedules etc.”
Lindsay Lohan's career has been full of negativity
The statement continued, “I intended for this to be a factual comparison of two women with similar experiences in Hollywood. Unfortunately it turned into me offering up what is really much more of an uneducated opinion. It was most definitely not my intention to criticise or degrade Lindsay. I would never want her to feel bullied, as she does not deserve that. I was not always speaking eloquently during this interview and this miscommunication is my fault.”
Lindsay Lohan has yet to respond to the comments made and is unlikely to actually do so.
