Megan Fox Washed a Ferrari for 'Transformers' Audition

Director Michael Bay apparently made Megan Fox wash a Ferrari as part of her audition for Transformers, the U.K. Guardian reports (via Page Six). And he filmed it, too.

“He made her wash his Ferrari while he filmed her,” Jason Solomons told the Guardian. “She said she didn’t know what had happened to that footage. When I put it to Bay himself, he looked suitably abashed -- ‘Er, I don’t know where it is either'.”

Images of the sexy Fox leaning over the hood of a car seem to be the most memorable from the blockbuster movie -- but what does it say about Bay's priorities as a film director that instead of requesting a monologue, he told Fox to wash his car? Where do you think this ranks on the sleazy casting couch meter?

Back Stage usually advises against going to an audition at somebody's private home. Would you make an exception for Michael Bay?

Fox currently stars in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, in theaters now.

Are you sure that washing the Ferrari was part of the audition?

"wash his ferrari" must be a euphemism.
