What is up, Daddy gang? It
0:05
is your founding father, Alex Cooper
0:07
with call her Megan
0:12
Fox. Welcome to caller Daddy. Thank you. I
0:14
am so happy we
0:16
are doing this tonight. Same. And
0:19
I say tonight, which is crazy. I
0:21
have never done an interview this late
0:23
in my life. It's 10 o'clock
0:25
at night. Are you a
0:28
night owl? No, but I find that interesting
0:30
because you've interviewed so many rappers and I
0:32
did I refuse to believe that they showed
0:34
up on time or in the daylight. Okay,
0:36
offset didn't show up on time, but it
0:38
was the daylight. But no, I have never
0:41
done a late night interview. But I do
0:43
feel like it's kind of a vibe. You
0:45
might end up loving it. Okay, well, I
0:47
was gonna say guys, it's raining right now.
0:49
There's thunderstorms in LA. We've got candles going.
0:51
This makes sense for a
0:54
Megan Fox episode. When you are like
0:56
late night by yourself, your kids
0:58
are asleep. What is your favorite thing to do
1:00
at night usually? Well,
1:02
I usually stay by the fire and I like to read
1:04
and I read a lot
1:07
of metaphysical books. But right now I'm
1:09
reading whatever that new like adult
1:12
version of Twilight book that's out. It's like
1:14
a erotic fairy book. Wait, isn't it like
1:16
the king of or the court court of
1:18
thorns? Yeah, I'm reading that. Wait, does it
1:21
like kind of make you horny? I haven't
1:23
gotten to the horny part yet. But
1:25
I know that I'm gonna get there because I've
1:27
I know that he has like, the
1:30
ability to bind her energetically with
1:32
magic. And I'm already like, I'm
1:35
here for that. That'll that'll do it for you. Yeah, I
1:37
remember my friend was reading it. She was like, Alex, I'm
1:39
not kidding you. I keep waking my boyfriend up in the
1:41
middle of the night because I'm like, I'm
1:43
reading about fairies, but something get me going.
1:45
I'm like, I don't understand it. Maybe I
1:47
need to read it. I'm not there yet.
1:50
But I feel like you should. Okay, and
1:52
it's definitely a lot more
1:54
interesting than most of the like, psychological
1:56
textbooks that I read by the
1:58
fire at night you're reading textbooks
2:00
over there? Sometime. You enjoyed that?
2:03
Can't say I enjoy it. I think that I
2:05
do it out of I made
2:08
like a really clear decision when I
2:11
was young to avoid the pitfalls or
2:13
like the traps of social media or
2:15
just internet usage in general. And so
2:18
I kind of go out of my way. And maybe
2:20
it's annoying to be this way,
2:23
but to counter that by attempting
2:25
to educate myself, by the way, I didn't graduate high
2:27
school. So I think a lot of that
2:30
is just like pursuing things that I'm interested
2:32
in and wanting to have as much information about
2:34
it as possible. And trying to
2:36
not become just like a
2:39
plebeian or like a mindless
2:41
brainwashed sheep. I think most of
2:43
us today are mindless
2:45
sheep because I feel that way sometimes when
2:48
I'm on social media too much, I'm like,
2:50
what is happening up here? Like I'm not
2:52
when is last time I had an original
2:54
thought I'm mindlessly scrolling. Yeah, we got to
2:56
get me anxiety. Like I have group chats
2:58
with my friends and they'll send me links
3:00
to things but I don't keep like the
3:02
Instagram app downloaded or anything like that. But
3:05
even just like if they send
3:07
me a link to something on Twitter and
3:09
I open the Twitter website, just
3:11
the energy from the website gives me
3:13
so much anxiety that I feel like
3:16
I immediately contract like ADHD.
3:19
And I can feel how I'm not able
3:21
my thoughts are not able to sustain the
3:23
same way. And that's just from being exposed
3:25
to it for like five seconds, 30 seconds.
3:27
Yeah, like get me the fuck out of
3:29
here. I can't imagine like what it's doing
3:32
to everyone, especially like younger kids that are
3:34
starting so early with cell phones. It's actually
3:36
terrifying. It's like a drug. This

6:45
Something I also noticed about you is you just
6:47
announced kind of that you have like a
6:50
whole new sleeve tattoo on Instagram. What
6:52
was the story behind that? Like how did you decide to do that? Well,
6:56
back when I dyed my hair from that auburn
6:59
colored red that it was to this color, it
7:01
was like a bright red. During
7:03
that metamorphosis, I decided
7:06
I had bought these weird... I
7:10
became a victim of Teemu. Wait,
7:12
what? Do you know what that happened? Yes,
7:14
only because of Super Bowl. Someone introduced me
7:16
to Teemu and I was like, what is
7:19
this though? I was
7:21
victimized and I ordered a bunch of stick
7:24
on tattoos and fun things to do with my
7:27
kids. Some of them were fake sleeves
7:29
because I was like, oh, my kids will love to do
7:31
this. I did it on me
7:33
and I was like, wow, I love it. I
7:36
instantly made an appointment to get my arm
7:38
done. I started
7:40
it, but the artist I was
7:42
working with had a different vision than what I
7:45
wanted. We
7:47
got halfway up my arm, dust in the wind was
7:49
playing and just that line repeating over and over again.
7:51
Nothing lasts forever, but the
7:53
earth and sea and your tattoos that you get
7:56
kept playing. I was like, okay,
7:58
I have to stop because this isn't... my vision. It
8:00
wasn't a bad tattoo. It just wasn't what I
8:02
wanted. So we stopped with
8:05
half the tattoo. I kept that for like
8:07
six months. And then I found an artist
8:09
to cover it. Most people would say I'm
8:11
grounded, but I'm also very impulsive. Like when
8:13
I decide to do something, it must be
8:15
done right then. I can't decide it and
8:17
then do it months from now or I'm
8:20
not, I can't plan far into
8:22
the future. It has to happen instantly. And
8:24
so once I found the cover artist, I was like, we have
8:26
to get it done. And we just did it four days in
8:28
a row. It was like six hours a day. They
8:31
won't have to usually pass six hours in one
8:33
sitting because your, your
8:35
skin starts rejecting the ink. So I just did
8:37
it four days in a row and sleeved it.
8:40
And then it healed very weird. It like didn't
8:42
even peel. It's very weird.
8:44
It just healed. It was just
8:46
fine. Someone that you know also
8:48
got a lot of new ink and
8:51
I have to ask about it or I
8:54
would get roasted on the internet. MGK,
8:56
should I call him MGK or Colson
8:58
or Colson or MGK? Okay.
9:01
He posted and I saw all
9:03
the comments of everyone mostly being like, what does Megan think
9:05
about his new tattoo? What does Megan think? What does Megan
9:07
think? And now I'm sitting here in person with you and
9:09
I'm like, I have to ask you, like, what
9:11
did you think when you saw the tattoo? Well,
9:13
he has like a really special story behind
9:16
why he did that, which obviously I'll leave
9:18
for him to tell, but he
9:20
had a relationship with the tattoos that
9:22
he had, that he was
9:25
very conflicted emotionally, whatever they represented.
9:28
And I don't actually know. He
9:31
didn't like to revisit those memories of the, some
9:33
of those tattoos that he had and he wanted
9:35
to get rid of them. But I think the
9:37
piece that she did for him is very like,
9:40
I think it's very art. It gives
9:43
me like Rick Owens. It gives me
9:45
like, you know, it's, it's like an
9:47
elevated version of all
9:49
of those tattoos that were pieced together. I think it's
9:51
really elegant and it's kind of ahead of its time.
9:53
I think in 10 years, that'll be a trend. I
9:57
Don't know how many people can take that kind of
9:59
pain. The i don't know don't
10:01
people will be put to sleep and get get
10:03
the tattoos on. be heated it like fully. Awake
10:06
with no pain killers and known as
10:08
you go with an awning. I went
10:10
to one of the session right? The
10:12
probably money there there are many yeah
10:14
and. It didn't feel
10:16
like something it to me and folic
10:18
he was going to like a spiritual
10:20
initiation and that space needed to be
10:22
respected and I didn't need to be
10:24
there. I stopped by one of them
10:26
know that I don't actually know how
10:28
he. Endured that level of pain
10:31
because he's awful tattooing on top of
10:33
tattoos. they are tattooing the scar tissue
10:35
which makes it even more painful as
10:37
I I don't know, I don't know.
10:39
His liver is also probably not feeling
10:41
well at this time. Prayers
10:44
for call sense yeah I'm I was
10:46
about as I was reading those comments
10:48
and like the internet is such a
10:50
wild place, what is the craziest. Rumor.
10:53
You've ever heard about yourself on the Internet?
10:56
There. Is lots of those. We could
10:58
talk about that for awhile. Let's
11:00
talk about have a lot about
11:02
it. I'm I guess one of
11:05
the ones that's very persistent is
11:07
that I'm I'm like say tannic
11:09
or do you say tannic rituals
11:11
or maybe adjacent to Illuminati or
11:13
something and.vein which I think really
11:15
start is. I
11:17
don't know why it started. There is
11:20
just like that one time that I
11:22
said i drink blood ritualistically. Ah,
11:25
and then everybody was like wow season
11:27
to say Ten Agree Bristles Plaza. Despite.
11:31
That was a very
11:34
misunderstood. Thing.
11:36
I mean child finance? Give us the
11:39
some contact. Okay here's the contacts. Everything
11:41
is a matter of like. What?
11:43
You're accustomed to or what
11:46
is currently like socially acceptable
11:48
or normal and. Back.
11:50
in like the fifties even how many times
11:52
did you see like probably never but like
11:54
on leave it to beaver are like movies
11:57
for bags in or even the eighties how
11:59
many times that see like little boys
12:01
would go out with like their little pop
12:03
guns and they would cut their fingers and
12:05
like be blood brothers right and they're like
12:07
we're best friends forever now and they would
12:09
like smush the blood together on their fingers.
12:11
Uh-huh. That's not satanic right?
12:13
That's normal and that's cute that's sweet that's
12:15
like an innocent like. A little bond. Yeah
12:17
it's a little bond between kids who love
12:20
each other they have a pure friendship it's
12:22
like that. Except
12:25
instead of rubbing your fingers together
12:27
the drop of blood goes
12:32
in your mouth and I don't
12:34
know what why that becomes satanic
12:36
I understand people are like hey
12:39
that's weird but guess what I think is weird I
12:41
think it's weird that girls are out here
12:43
letting guys come in their mouth and they
12:45
don't know these guys you're letting somebody put
12:47
their sperm in your mouth and you don't
12:49
know what he did he doesn't even have
12:51
a job you met him on fucking tender
12:54
he's an entrepreneur or whatever he's in a
12:56
startup and you just let him sperm
12:59
in your mouth that's disgusting that makes my back
13:01
hurts that makes me sweaty so fuck you you're
13:04
so offended that I got a drop of machine
13:06
of Kelly's blood in my mouth. You
13:11
have Brandon from Silicon Valley sperm in
13:14
your mouth he didn't even buy you
13:16
a nice drink. I'm
13:18
crying. Honestly
13:20
though it's a matter of perspective what
13:23
is so gross about what I did with
13:25
my soulmate you guys are out here letting
13:27
strangers come on you this is
13:29
disgusting. It
13:33
is these are the facts we really
13:35
need to discuss today. Megan We get
13:38
on the interview here. You know I
13:40
mean because this is the hard-hitting truth
13:42
and I appreciate the honesty because when
13:44
you give us a little context, it
13:46
does kind of make fucking sense and
13:48
you're right. Like anyone can look at
13:51
it anyway. like just like Christianity when
13:53
they're like drinking wine and they believe
13:55
it's the blood of Christ like everyone
13:57
has their thing like let everyone fucking.
14:00
What do you give a shit? Are you drinking?
14:02
Someone's like, know? why do you fucking care of?
14:04
Ideally, it doesn't matter. Synchronize, integrate point about the
14:06
com and we should circle back on that for
14:08
the women at the end of this episode. really
14:11
talk about who should be coming inside of you
14:13
and your mouth and. Yeah. Appreciate that
14:15
what other rumors you have any
14:17
that comes out but super rich
14:19
people that that that's the first
14:21
one. And just to clarify because
14:23
I didn't go on record as
14:25
saying that's not trill I actually
14:27
was raised like Pentecostal christian. I
14:29
don't mock currently like a part
14:32
of the church but I definitely
14:34
identify with Christ consciousness and I
14:36
actually a very spiritual positive person.
14:38
I'm a service which separates lame
14:40
and going through it a little
14:42
that out and terms of positivity
14:44
by. I'm definitely I've never been a part
14:46
of a satanic ritual. don't know any people
14:48
of than a part of the sit in
14:50
a gradual and not sure of the Illuminati
14:53
is real. It probably is. I have not
14:55
been extended an offer to join. I feel
14:57
like if it was real I would have
14:59
been given an offer to joined by now.
15:01
Ah, So. Yes, just
15:03
to squash that. Not.
15:06
A satanist? or any kind
15:08
of like an evil Wedge
15:10
Light worker. Yes, And
15:12
I do feel rituals that
15:15
that doesn't. That's.
15:17
Not a negative thing. Anything is
15:19
a ritual Taking doing your skin
15:21
carotene as a ritual. Going to
15:23
church is a ritual high thing.
15:25
Be laughed as separate that word.
15:27
That word has been demonized for
15:29
so long. Yeah, that it's just
15:31
and very misunderstood. And also I
15:33
think we exacerbated it because Halloween
15:35
of that year. Am I
15:37
dressed up in bondage with a dog
15:39
collar around my neck and he dressed
15:41
up as a priest and he was
15:43
feeding the communion on my knees and
15:46
we we. We played Marilyn and since
15:48
I'm. Sweet sweet
15:50
dream or hi we play that that was
15:52
the song to the that and people. Felt
15:54
like that was a confirmation of they are
15:56
tannic rituals. See you can kind of feel
15:58
like we're people melee they may I can
16:01
see. I can see where I planted a
16:03
seed and and their grew a tree. In.
16:05
It's place but you're here. a top down
16:07
the dream like it never fucked up. and
16:09
yeah, he he didn't want me to clarify.
16:11
you'd like it's actually someone should just let
16:13
them think this that it's so much cooler.
16:15
The people think we're this bizarre that word
16:17
this weird that were doing this kind of
16:19
weird, not magical weird shit in our basement.
16:22
Like let them think that this is what's
16:24
going on with it. It is kind of
16:26
a testament to like everything they see on
16:28
social media as face value and it's like
16:30
it's not that deep. Yeah with Holloway. Yeah,
16:32
let's go back to the beginning. Megan Fox,
16:34
What were you like. As a kid. I
16:38
told my mom when I was to that I was gonna be
16:40
a famous actor. a. Son. New.
16:43
And. Not was out of passion for
16:45
acting on the honest I just always
16:47
knew that that's what it was gonna
16:49
be. I had like an awareness of
16:51
my destiny for some reason I young
16:53
age and. I was a tomboy when
16:56
I was a little kid. I was
16:58
always outside. Ah I had
17:00
like a very assertive energy as a
17:02
child and whenever my mom would get
17:04
laid secret psychic readings because she was
17:06
pentecostal so that was have no no
17:08
to see psychics. They would always read
17:10
that she had an older daughter and
17:12
a younger son and that the younger
17:14
son with me on and I'm not
17:16
really sure why I always came see
17:18
that way except. That. I
17:20
have. No. One's gonna know what I'm
17:22
talking about right now, but I have Mars
17:24
on my as Sundance in Astrology sell. I
17:27
have like a warrior energy that I
17:29
was born with, and I think that
17:31
was translated as being like, maybe masculine
17:34
as a child because it wasn't docile.
17:36
but I was. Like. A
17:38
good kid. I was like a little machine
17:40
years. And never interested in
17:42
school. Always knew that that was not
17:44
for me. What was the dynamic? Like
17:46
in your house? Ah, My my
17:49
parents got divorced when I
17:51
was three. And.
17:55
Prior to that, I just remember both my parents
17:57
are still alive and so I want to be
17:59
careful. Not to drag them but while
18:01
also being honest I remember my mother's
18:04
depression was really really affected me very
18:06
deeply and he was very visceral for
18:08
me and like if I were to
18:10
drawn image of my mother from my
18:13
childhood it would be hurry like this
18:15
not a literal image but she just
18:17
always seemed like latest soaking wet blanket
18:19
are like like and draped over a
18:22
couch like we bang that was that
18:24
would be like my and image of
18:26
mother because I was so connected to
18:28
her sadness or her. Air
18:31
feelings of being on facility and
18:33
also her resentment. Towards
18:35
relationship. My.
18:37
Dad Before I skip ad
18:39
my Dad is like really
18:41
outgoing and funny and charming
18:43
and like really unique and
18:45
sparkly and it. They.
18:48
She. She was. I don't know. She
18:50
was not as hills in that relationship.
18:52
For whatever reason, they got divorced. From
18:54
my perspective, as a three year old,
18:56
he kind of disappeared for a little
18:58
while. She immediately got remarried. My step
19:00
dad who has passed was on. The.
19:03
Probably have borderline personality but
19:05
back then he was diagnosed
19:07
i think bipolar and though
19:10
he was emotionally and mentally
19:12
and verbally very abusive to
19:14
me not to her on
19:17
and he isolated me from
19:19
her and. Just. In
19:21
general, like I wasn't allowed to have friends
19:23
over or like go to anyone's house, I
19:25
spent a lot of time isolated in my
19:28
room. And
19:30
wasn't able to really. Even
19:33
spend much He wanted her. I.
19:35
Guess he isolated her is really what
19:38
was happening by it seemed as though
19:40
I was on being isolated and then
19:42
I watched her depression do that relationship
19:44
as well. And so the messaging the
19:46
I received is that man and marriage
19:49
and particular drain you of your life
19:51
force and keep you from being able
19:53
to express your creativity or express your
19:55
unique desires. And if you know experience
19:57
to be in a relationship or to
20:00
be in love or to be married
20:02
and particular being married like rights to
20:04
say the word be Merry I feel
20:06
my i feel my shockers tighten up
20:08
my back like go yeah gets high
20:11
even though I was married for a
20:13
long time. How bad
20:15
does that it was is that and they
20:17
are gonna my him if it is interesting
20:19
and you have one sibling or you were
20:21
younger know I have an older sister became
20:23
the twelve years old or so. she was
20:25
going to college when I was still really
20:28
young and she was gone a lot. cannot
20:30
hire to that when I was really on.
20:32
she was in high school and she wasn't
20:34
around much and she had a boyfriend and
20:36
she got married and she moved out so
20:38
I was alone a lot and. Trying.
20:40
To make sense of. My.
20:42
Mom's depression? Yeah, and the
20:44
disconnects and then the like.
20:47
The emotional violence coming from my
20:49
that father and also wanting to
20:51
be with my dad more and
20:53
not being able to to be around
20:56
him because he always was a
20:58
lie and he still is a
21:00
lie. And. That
21:02
he. Was. Separated from
21:05
the in a way where I couldn't. I
21:07
couldn't get to the lights kind of like
21:09
can get to God Yes, that that constant
21:12
like wanting to connect with the father figure.
21:14
like either spiritually or it. literally. yeah. I
21:17
yeah I feel like a lot of people
21:19
that I've talked to i such empathy for
21:21
people. Bad. Weather, and
21:23
literally or just like by age kind
21:25
of had a upbringing that you're essentially
21:28
an only child like your sister, being
21:30
so much older than you like you
21:32
were in the house alone and I
21:34
feel like. A. Lotta times when
21:37
there's such. Chaos. From
21:39
the parents like there is. I
21:42
found you can have such an emotional connection
21:44
to siblings because you can look at someone's
21:46
You're right, You're locked into like our going
21:48
to the same shit whereas when you're an
21:50
only child centrally in those moments you can
21:52
only internal. I think what's wrong with me
21:55
more. heat what's going on around you
21:57
and try to do the complete opposite of what your
21:59
parents did I feel like obviously we've
22:01
seen in movies you play just
22:03
like the most popular hot girl.
22:06
And when you got to high school, because I know you said
22:08
when you were younger, you were very tomboyish, you would be alone.
22:11
What was your high school dynamic like? Were you
22:13
the cool girl or were you the opposite of
22:15
that? No. And middle school
22:17
I had, I was always a loner,
22:20
I guess, and not necessarily by
22:22
choice, but have
22:26
you ever taken an Enneagram test? Do you know what that
22:28
is? I do know what that is. Do
22:30
you know what number you are? I completely forget what number I'm
22:32
in now. You're probably a one if I had to guess. Oh
22:34
my God, what does that mean? Is that a good
22:36
question? Or a seven. Actually, you're probably
22:38
a seven, the enthusiast. Take
22:41
it and then tell me, take it and then like,
22:43
I don't know how this works, but like insert it into
22:45
this interview and tell me if I was right. My face,
22:47
I was like, I am a one. I know a
22:49
seven, a seven. I think you're the enthusiast. I'm a
22:51
four, which is, I
22:53
think in that one they call it the
22:55
romantic, but it's a personality
22:58
that's been developed where I
23:00
identify as being an outcast
23:02
or being so incredibly unique
23:04
and unusual that no one
23:06
could ever understand me. And
23:08
so for me, like the
23:10
worst insult you could give me is that I
23:12
blend in with everyone else or I have like
23:15
a vanilla personality or that I'm normal. But
23:18
that actually stems from a family environment
23:20
where I didn't feel that I belonged
23:23
and never felt a part of anything. And
23:25
then as I went out into the world
23:27
in school, that was also reflected back to
23:29
me where I didn't fit into a friend
23:32
group and I wasn't received well by kids.
23:34
And then as I left school and went out
23:36
into the world as a famous person, the world
23:39
received me that way as well with a
23:41
lot of contention and a lot
23:44
of negativity and a lot of projection.
23:47
And so it's a part of
23:49
my identity, but it's a survival mechanism
23:51
to say, I'm
23:54
a pariah. Like I'm an outlier.
23:57
That's who I am. And I'm proud of that. need
24:00
to be now that's how I self-identify but
24:02
really that comes from a deep wound of
24:05
looking to have belonged somewhere at some point in
24:07
my life and never finding a place that I
24:10
fit. That's really actually interesting to hear because I
24:12
was going to say like on one hand it
24:14
is a survival mechanism for you to get through
24:16
but I'm also like isn't that
24:18
lonely? Yeah, yeah
24:22
it's super lonely but I was a lonely
24:25
baby. Yeah I've been a love and
24:27
lonely my whole life so and when
24:29
I meet with like I've
24:31
met every healer every psychic every they're
24:33
always like well this is your nine
24:35
life path this is your life last
24:37
life you're an old soul old souls
24:39
are lonely old souls are sad you've
24:41
been doing this a long time you've
24:43
been through a lot of trauma you've
24:45
had every kind of experience you can
24:47
have and there's like this sort
24:50
of bittersweet experience of it's
24:55
it's lonely but I also know that
24:57
part of my purpose is to be
24:59
in service to others my children in
25:02
particular but yeah it's
25:04
not a it's not a particularly like I
25:07
feel alone yeah a lot but to
25:09
answer your question about high school and middle school
25:11
I wasn't cool I had an eating disorder in
25:13
middle school a really bad one I had to
25:15
be hospitalized twice and I
25:17
was left in there like my
25:20
mom will say she took me out for Christmas I don't think
25:22
that's accurate I think I was in there for Christmas but I
25:24
was in there for a few months at a time every time
25:27
they would put me in essentially I was 51 50s
25:29
because my eating disorder was so bad I
25:33
had braces I plucked out all of
25:35
my eyebrows and
25:37
when you do that when you pluck your eyebrows by
25:39
the way for anyone that's ever going to do this
25:41
if you do that when you're sick or your immune
25:43
system is down those hairs don't grow back so
25:45
plucks my eyebrows out most of
25:47
them never grew back why did you pluck them out it
25:51
was like a like cutting or like any kind
25:53
of a I was just doing
25:55
things to myself to like Not
25:59
just figure my. So, but it
26:01
was a compulsive action I didn't
26:03
understand that time. And then in
26:05
high school. Like. If you saw
26:07
my high school yearbook picture I am. I
26:10
thought by that point I was cheating C
26:12
S. I had figured it out somehow by
26:14
it easily as lonely and like isolated and
26:16
I had a friend. But
26:18
I've never had like a friend
26:21
group. How did boys treat you?
26:23
And high school? I had a
26:25
high school boyfriend. I
26:27
didn't I don't know at that point
26:30
I'd started like some modeling in Miami
26:32
and doing like addition in for acting
26:34
things I think during high school I
26:36
did that Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen
26:39
movie I Mind Backlash. I think I
26:41
was like sixteen seventeen on. The
26:44
kids in school why didn't get like
26:46
a real reaction from the boys in
26:48
school but as I went out into
26:50
the world doing that stuff I started
26:52
as getting reactions to also from like
26:54
much older men which was. Weird
26:56
because they were not my peer group
26:59
obviously and that sent a whole nother
27:01
like that is confusing messages or yeah,
27:03
I'm curious. before we do get into
27:06
that like. When. People.
27:08
Probably think of Megan Fox in high
27:10
school there like I would have killed
27:12
to look like you did. You have
27:14
insecurities? Yeah, I'm body dysmorphic since I
27:17
was probably like. Five.
27:19
I remember sitting the back of my sisters
27:21
car she was getting married. I remember I
27:23
was wearing I had black shorts that white
27:25
polka dots on. Then I was five in.
27:27
This is crazy when I look at my
27:29
children because now I understand what it has
27:31
to be five years old and I was
27:33
in the backseat looking at my legs being
27:36
like I have such fat guys. My size
27:38
or so far has five but I also
27:40
had like i'm. I think
27:42
I was blonde and a past life or
27:44
and or I mean I've had many path
27:47
live. whenever. I
27:49
would look in a mere as a child. I was like satellite
27:51
me. That. Never felt like
27:53
me. I will I nothing about
27:55
that face, their hair, the skin
27:58
color, the body that wasn't. Me:
28:00
I never associated that with me and
28:02
so I think that's because I have
28:04
a strong. Ties to some of
28:06
my other life times and it was
28:08
always hard for me to accept that
28:10
this is who I am in this
28:12
lifetime and that goes back to. My
28:14
parents are still married so I was
28:16
a two or three. my mom said.
28:19
That. I used to go into the bathroom
28:21
and phantom a toilet and pull up my
28:23
shirt to see if my. Billie.
28:25
That ground and I will get really
28:27
upset that I didn't have. Big.
28:29
Boobs And nine. Thirty. Thousand
28:31
dollars later here. Thought
28:34
that for honestly girl get it. I was
28:37
getting yeah because I was gonna ask you
28:39
like I know you've been open about body
28:41
dysmorphic and I know that doesn't doesn't just
28:43
go away and like where do you think
28:46
that. Control. Of
28:48
that that's essentially control thing of the you're trying
28:50
to control how you look like what were you,
28:52
What do you think Now you look back, you're
28:54
trying to achieve. I think ultimately at the time
28:57
that was going through it, it was. Loss.
28:59
Of control because of the the dynamic
29:01
between myself and my stepfather and having
29:04
know like a autonomy a whatsoever and
29:06
like not being able to have friends
29:08
or to leave the house or to
29:10
even like do things freely inside the
29:13
house but prior to that it. Was.
29:15
Just a feeling of being
29:17
defective. Are being unwanted? And
29:20
for whatever reason, I'm not sure
29:22
why it manifested specifically as that
29:24
and not as like an addiction
29:26
issues which I've never had. but
29:28
it it and manifested as. Body.
29:31
Dysmorphic and self esteem. Instead.
29:34
Your ex has then made headlines recently
29:36
when he said that you never got
29:38
to experience being a single young woman
29:40
because you guys met when you are
29:42
only eighteen and he was thirty one
29:45
at the time. Do.
29:47
You agree with him like do you feel like you
29:49
miss out on of anything? Because that really says. I
29:52
feel. Like. Hey. Of
29:56
the first of all, let me just
29:58
say. I was. A
30:00
great girlfriend to Brian. I'll be
30:03
very honest and like. He
30:05
was not great to me either all the
30:08
time, but I think it would be easy
30:10
for me to lean into and complain about
30:12
or let it seem like that relationship was
30:14
one way that maybe I was not. Great.
30:17
Because I was young and really should
30:19
not have been in a relationship of
30:22
that that level of commitment and not
30:24
magnitude. With that I shouldn't have been
30:26
involved in their owners. Eighteen, Nineteen, Twenty
30:28
Twenty Five, Twenty Two Twenty three. I
30:30
shouldn't have been. So I did a
30:32
lot of like falling in love with
30:34
other people all the time. I would
30:36
go to work in. Fall.
30:38
In love because I was a kid
30:41
and ah, Yeah
30:43
I never had the full freedom to
30:45
like be single an experience that life
30:47
and I thought for a minute when
30:50
I got divorced that that for I
30:52
was gonna do. And I
30:54
was single for like. Three.
30:56
Week. Hence,
30:59
Than than just met the guy
31:01
A I thought I was really
31:03
gonna. Go. Full like Leo
31:06
Dicaprio. While that would really
31:08
like fun to watch, everyone
31:10
says that version. Of
31:12
everyone agrees. I now need to know because
31:15
you reference in the beginning of this interview
31:17
like it literally makes your skin crawl when
31:19
you think about marriage. But you did get
31:21
married Like how did you decide to do
31:23
that I think because then I was so
31:26
unaware of my feelings. Can I was so.
31:28
So much younger and nurses before
31:30
I had my kids and most
31:32
of my. Growth. And
31:34
like. Accident Awareness.
31:37
Came after childbirth though prior
31:39
to that I was very.
31:43
I just wasn't aware that oh, marriage
31:45
makes me feel any particular way. That
31:47
was something I did kind of impulsively.
31:49
I'm also, it was like an adventure
31:51
it's had to go on and to
31:53
do. and I'd already been with him
31:55
for so many years at that point.
31:58
and I do feel like karmacally. The
32:00
part that her kids with them
32:02
of course, so I didn't realize.
32:05
You know, I wasn't looking at myself
32:07
being like I'm reenacting. My.
32:09
Mother's Life and or I'm carrying my
32:12
mother's burdens or uncaring. You know, the
32:14
things that she projected onto each. I
32:16
was not able to recognize any other.
32:19
I was in the moment and had
32:21
not had therapy or anything like that
32:23
and I'm not. Started reading in educating
32:26
myself, savages acting in doing and I
32:28
got myself into a relationship which I
32:30
of course found. No.
32:32
Shade to Brian unfulfilling Because inevitably that's what
32:35
I was going to do because I was
32:37
reenacting what I watched my mother do I
32:39
have a child Yeah, yeah, I think that's
32:41
something that's like fascinating when you get into
32:44
therapy or like oh fuck like and just
32:46
I literally said I didn't want to be
32:48
like my mother and I'm turning into my
32:50
mother and it's on earth obviously to like
32:53
take some accountability of our lives to be
32:55
like pause. How do I tried to change
32:57
that? But it's really fucking hard to not
32:59
do what we saw a growing up. When
33:02
I think about. You and and since
33:04
the rise of your career I
33:06
feel your name in the public
33:08
eye has been. Synonymous.
33:10
With the phrase sex symbol right?
33:12
How does that make you feel.
33:16
I've never been life particularly attached to that.
33:18
To be honest, I'm not like. I.
33:21
Don't have an emotional. Reaction.
33:24
To that I don't believe me. Sit
33:26
here and analyze it while you're asking
33:28
me. I think it odd pressure. To.
33:31
A girl who. Like
33:34
I said has body dysmorphic
33:36
and really ever see yourself
33:38
that way and that the
33:40
things that I thought were
33:42
my strength like my mind,
33:44
my intelligence or an easy
33:46
my sense of humor which
33:48
is granted like very nice
33:50
sometimes buy it on those
33:52
things are not acknowledge and
33:54
instead I'm being in college
33:56
for something that I don't
33:58
identify. With. Or. And
34:01
so that's almost like this
34:03
artifice. It's like forcing me to
34:06
wear a character that
34:09
I don't actually... I
34:11
wasn't trying to wear. And then also
34:14
you assign the character to me and then
34:16
you torture and demonize the character. And I
34:19
was never that... I was never
34:21
her. Like you created her and then
34:24
you murdered her. And that...
34:28
I love that I started this out by being like, I don't
34:30
have an emotional attachment to this. Like
34:33
you fucking killed me bitch. But
34:35
I think to
34:38
just being called a sex symbol, I
34:40
don't initially have a reaction. But to
34:42
the whole process of what really happened
34:45
and it goes... it's into
34:47
just being famous in general. And the
34:49
whole process of fame has been
34:52
really haunting
34:55
to be honest. Because
34:57
like I said, the media
34:59
and people built up this
35:02
character and then decided to
35:04
destroy her. Because I don't
35:09
know why there's a need to
35:11
like worship and then
35:14
destroy. And
35:16
I was
35:18
always a sensitive kid,
35:22
but I had to wear armor to survive my
35:24
childhood. And I had to wear armor
35:26
to survive being famous. And
35:28
so there's this energy of me of
35:30
that, you know, that I don't give
35:32
any fucks. And to some degree that's
35:34
true in terms of I would never
35:36
change anything about myself in order to
35:39
get someone to like me. So in
35:41
that way I don't give any fucks.
35:43
That doesn't mean that I
35:45
don't get my feelings hurt and that when
35:47
I'm being bullied or drabbed that that doesn't
35:49
cause me to be mentally unwell sometimes. Because
35:51
it absolutely does and did. And in 2009,
35:54
Crossing Indigenous,
36:00
2010 I had been famous not even
36:02
that long only a couple of years but
36:04
the fame was so heightened it was so
36:07
intense That all the
36:09
energy started peaking and I was going through
36:11
this process of I was getting
36:13
crucified in the press every day And on
36:16
whatever the blogs were at that time. There
36:18
was no social media, but like press Hilton
36:20
like Was it Nikki Swift?
36:22
There was other yeah, so me. Yes
36:24
daily mail What I remember what they
36:26
would like say about you the same
36:28
the same exact things they say right
36:30
now You could swap the articles
36:32
from this year with 2009 and 2010 and see exact
36:35
same thing obviously
36:38
like Being
36:41
a slut being a whore now I have kids
36:43
for people to project on and be like but
36:45
aren't you're a shitty mom? I didn't have that
36:47
at the time, but it was just like you're
36:50
a shitty person for whatever reason um
36:53
plastic surgery fake Talentless
37:00
There's so many there's so many headlines
37:02
I used to get chased by paparazzi
37:04
who would be like Megan
37:08
everybody's saying that you're overrated. Do you think that
37:10
you're overrated? Megan everybody's saying that you shouldn't have
37:13
got your nose down. Nobody likes your new nose
37:15
Are you embarrassed that you got your nose done?
37:17
Are you sad? Do you regret getting your nose
37:19
done Megan? Why are you
37:21
such a bitch? Why does nobody like you like
37:23
grown men right chasing you with back then? This
37:26
was like TMZ cameras. They don't talk to you
37:28
like that anymore, but back then they did So
37:31
you're in life getting bullied by
37:33
actual grown adult men with cameras
37:35
everywhere you go then
37:37
there's like the online presence of just getting
37:39
torn to shreds for Everything
37:42
that you do everything that you
37:44
wear how you look every single
37:46
flaw every pimple every star every
37:50
Five pounds you gain five pounds you
37:53
lose your you can't win and That
37:56
energy was peaking and it was every day and during
37:58
2009. They had a blackout, a
38:00
Megan Fox blackout, where the media
38:03
all agreed to not post any
38:05
content about me for a whole
38:07
day. Which by the way, I
38:09
was like, I hope you do this every day.
38:12
Thank you. But the attitude
38:14
was that, oh, this is that I
38:16
was a fame whore or an attention
38:18
whore, which is the opposite of the
38:20
truth. I'm extremely introverted and horrified by
38:22
having to be in front of people
38:25
or cameras. But
38:27
it got so bad at that point,
38:29
I was just like, Hey, I can't
38:32
survive the criticism and the
38:34
bullying anymore. Like, I actually
38:36
can't live every time I
38:38
step out of my house, someone has
38:40
something to say about how I look,
38:42
or it's going to be it started
38:44
to become a witch hunt, where I
38:46
felt like tabloids would send photographers with
38:48
the intention of getting a bad
38:51
photograph or getting a bad, getting
38:53
a bad story. This was around the time, it
38:55
may have been a little before, but it was
38:57
in the years of when Brittany shaved her head.
39:00
And so the media
39:02
at that time, they were on witch
39:04
hunts, and they would set
39:07
out to try and find something negative,
39:09
the ugliest picture they could get to
39:11
splash it everywhere. Because that's what people
39:14
want to that gets the most engagement,
39:16
obviously, even back then before socials
39:18
existed. And that's when I sort
39:20
of stepped away for a long time. And I was like, I'm
39:23
good to just not
39:25
be involved in this anymore, because I
39:27
actually can't sustain this amount of damage.
39:30
It's not normal. And I
39:32
also feel like it was kind of just
39:34
me at that time. Whereas now all of
39:36
us get it. Yeah, there's so many other
39:38
girls that are getting it constantly. But back
39:41
then, it really was kind of
39:43
just me. There wasn't another actress that was getting
39:45
it the same way I was getting it. Like,
39:47
as I'm listening to you, it's first
39:49
of all, it's fucking exhausting. Like I
39:51
cannot imagine and what you're sharing with
39:54
me in the beginning Of this being like, at such
39:56
a young age, I looked in the mirror and I was
39:58
like, I literally cannot connect. With my
40:01
physical appearance in, it so hard for me to look
40:03
at myself intake is that me in the mirror? I
40:05
don't feel that way. To. Know the
40:07
eating disorder that the barges more feel like
40:09
what you were going through how exacerbated it
40:11
then became because he became famous If you
40:13
had to say and I know there's like
40:16
no answer but like. Why?
40:18
Do you think people. Are.
40:21
So. Obsessively trying
40:23
to pick you and pull
40:26
you down. I. Don't.
40:29
Know I think they give fi
40:31
were term. Try
40:33
and speak about it from a spiritual
40:35
angle that. I'm.
40:38
The architect of this experience and
40:40
sell. I'm drawing this to me
40:42
because my soul needs to. Learn
40:45
and deal with these feelings and be
40:47
able to transcend. Today I believe in
40:50
a past life. I actually was burned
40:52
at the stake for being a witch,
40:54
so I think that's an energy that
40:56
I've had like two lifetimes. and it's
40:58
carried into this lifetime as well. Because
41:00
that is essentially what is happening day
41:03
every day. Or people don't realize it,
41:05
but they all wake up. And.
41:07
They're just or reincarnated Medieval Mob and they
41:09
have their pitch work and their lantern. and
41:11
they're like, who do we get the bright
41:13
date today? Who do we get to cancel
41:15
to get a good leader to destroy today
41:17
And that's the first thing they do. They
41:19
go on twitter and they're like what's trending
41:21
this I wanna join in on us and
41:23
that's also something that should be studied. Is
41:25
like. Why? Do
41:28
people want to join in? On.
41:31
Something. set which is as essentially psychological
41:34
violence why do you want to join
41:36
in on that because i think most
41:38
people if you are walking on the
41:40
street and you saw me or he
41:42
saw camera kylie your any of these
41:44
other girls and we're being beaten by
41:46
a mob of people your instinct is
41:48
not gonna be to join the mob
41:50
and to beat us it would probably
41:52
be to either help or to go
41:55
get help however when you watch that
41:57
same thing happened on line and it's
41:59
the cycle violence the
42:01
instinct is to join
42:03
and that's a very
42:05
weird that's a very weird instinct
42:07
that people have that they should ask themselves
42:09
like why do I want to be a
42:12
part of tormenting torturing mocking
42:14
making fun of or bullying
42:16
when we do understand the
42:18
ramifications and the danger of
42:20
doing this it's such
42:23
a good way to look at it and
42:25
it's fucking terrifying and I think I
42:29
think that as I'm sitting
42:31
here listening to you like I
42:33
also just have to like acknowledge like you
42:36
are conventionally like a
42:38
beautiful woman like you have been
42:40
called in certain years like the
42:43
most beautiful woman in the world
42:45
and I think people cannot
42:49
accept that you
42:51
could have it all you can't be this
42:53
beautiful and be smart you can't be that
42:55
beautiful and be a good person and I
42:57
think it brings so many insecurities
43:00
out in people when they look
43:03
at you I think for women
43:05
like I remember I just saw
43:07
a tick-tock of this woman who was like I just
43:09
lost a hundred pounds and my life is so different
43:11
because I used to walk in rooms
43:14
and women would befriend me and men treated me
43:16
like shit and now it's the opposite I walk
43:18
in a room and every fucking woman looks at
43:20
me like a threat and every
43:22
man is opening the door for me
43:25
treating me like a queen and I'm
43:27
like whoa I just live
43:29
two different fucking experiences in a year
43:31
and I'm like which one would I choose but
43:33
I think you threaten women because you're confident and
43:35
beautiful and educated and smart and we're all like
43:37
fuck you you can't be like that but to
43:39
men I mean I was gonna read this to
43:42
you I was like what the fuck is wrong
43:44
with the world I read an old article okay
43:47
and they they described you as
43:50
a screensaver on a teenage
43:52
boy's laptop a
43:54
middle-aged lawyers shower fantasy and
43:57
a sexual prop used to sell
44:00
movies. Like
44:03
the objectification of you, Megan
44:06
Fox is so much larger
44:08
than you. It is like
44:11
the embodiment of misogyny and what's wrong
44:14
with our fucking society. And it's terrifying
44:16
even hearing though it come from your
44:18
own voice of like, I
44:20
didn't ask for this. I
44:22
didn't. I'm not out there selling my
44:25
body and my soul to this. Like I'm just
44:27
trying to do my job. And somehow people are
44:29
like, take her the fuck down. Like, yeah,
44:32
I also, it was always
44:34
confusing to me because I
44:36
never really did anything bad.
44:39
I was never like associated with
44:41
drugs or alcohol. I was never
44:43
around until recently anyone who's associated
44:45
with drugs or alcohol. I was
44:47
never caught at clubs. I was
44:49
never arrested. I was never,
44:51
I never did
44:54
anything outside of having like a
44:57
kind of Andy Kaufman ask
44:59
sense of humor, which people
45:01
don't understand that is my
45:03
greatest crime. And so it
45:06
was very hard to understand in the
45:08
beginning. And I'll be honest with you,
45:10
it's hard to keep enduring it because
45:13
I did step away for a decade
45:15
and I did all this
45:17
work on myself spiritually and thought that
45:19
I was transcending and growing and becoming
45:21
a better person. And so when I
45:24
got divorced and I started dating Colson,
45:26
inevitably I was sort of
45:28
thrust back into the light, the synthetic
45:30
light, not the real light. And
45:34
I thought that either it would be
45:36
different, I would be attracting a different
45:38
experience to myself this time because my
45:40
level of consciousness was so much higher
45:42
or my ability to deal with
45:44
it would be so much better at this point
45:47
because I was a different person. And I have
45:49
not found that to be the case at all.
45:51
Like I've been doing it, it's going on the
45:53
fourth year now. And it
45:56
is wearing me down. I'll be honest, like
45:59
It's very hard. It I think because I
46:01
don't have a family support system or
46:03
like a large group of I don't
46:05
feel that I belong. Because I am. I
46:07
do feel so alone. Like you said
46:09
when you have to deal with something and
46:12
you don't have siblings, are you feel
46:14
like you're by yourself? You internalize and
46:16
then it can become very grim very quickly.
46:18
And I do. I am kind of
46:20
getting to the end of my rope with
46:22
I'll be honest, like I'm I'm I'm
46:24
struggling with it again. It feels like I
46:26
was in I, a wormhole like I
46:28
left two thousand and nine. And
46:30
I'm like right back and where I left
46:33
off and there was no growth which makes
46:35
me feel defeated. And
46:38
I just I. really, I can't
46:40
believe how. Negative.
46:43
The beings are and
46:45
how. Cruel.
46:48
They need to be to everyone.
46:50
This is not just me, but
46:52
that. Also. Ways on me
46:54
because I have kids and I have
46:57
one kid who's like an artistic survive
46:59
and that kid. Will inevitably
47:01
be in the spotlight. them how it's
47:03
impossible that they want and I know
47:05
how cruel the world is because I've
47:07
lived through it and I don't think
47:09
I can endure watching what my child
47:11
is gonna have to go through. I'm
47:14
gone. Really struggling with that as well. I'm
47:16
like not wanting my kids staff to be
47:19
exposed. I wouldn't say it's also just a
47:21
good fish is psycho. Like you said like
47:23
ever and someone up we've seen it was
47:25
so many stars online and then the minute
47:28
you're at the top they break you down
47:30
and I already know It's like if you
47:32
disappear again and you go away. Oh my
47:34
God We made Magdalene Hi the name is
47:37
why is that when I went away there
47:39
is like this surge of like i hate
47:41
this phrase by it applies to the i
47:43
would not normally. Say this. There
47:46
is that pekin energy where I was getting
47:48
crucified every day. I. Went away
47:50
I disappeared. I was like find fuck it
47:52
you in the world had like their posts
47:55
not clarity and they were like a. Way.
47:58
that Why did we
48:01
why did we kill her? Why did we murder
48:03
her? She never did anything. What did she do?
48:05
She was actually like She
48:08
was actually a positive. She stood for a lot of
48:10
really good things. Like we should have given her her
48:12
flowers Why do we do that? Fuck
48:14
and then I step back. I'm like
48:17
With someone knocking were you guys were you
48:19
guys calling me? I'm here. I'm here to
48:21
receive my flowers And
48:23
it was immediate just murder them
48:26
immediately. And so That
48:29
Experiencing that cycle like you said if I
48:31
were to disappear again right now like I
48:33
did in 2009 Which believe
48:35
me I'm very tempted to do because
48:38
I am not well at this moment The
48:40
same thing would happen where people would be like,
48:43
oh, but she brought you know, she had this
48:45
messaging She was such a smart girl. She was
48:47
a grounded girl. She was encouraging. She was supportive
48:50
of other women. She was this she was that
48:52
She was I promise you 40 years after I'm
48:55
dead It's gonna be like with not
48:57
to compare myself to Marilyn but the way she died
48:59
and then everyone's like well You know, she was a
49:01
genius, you know, she had 142 IQ
49:04
that's gonna happen to me too I'll years
49:06
from now I'll be dead and then somebody
49:08
will have something nice to say about me
49:11
But living it's not gonna happen even
49:13
like making me think as you're just
49:15
talking and I'm staring at you Like
49:18
you are so bright and you have
49:20
so much to offer and It
49:23
makes me sad because I know so many people will
49:25
listen to this and be like wait She's
49:27
actually like really fucking dope, but it shouldn't
49:30
take you sitting for an hour and talking
49:32
if You're a kind person.
49:35
You've never done anything to anyone. So you shouldn't
49:37
have to prove yourself but it's like Frustrating
49:39
that there's this pull and push on the
49:42
internet and you just can't fucking win and
49:44
I'm sorry You have to deal with that.
49:46
Um, I'm curious like how did
49:48
how did and how has this
49:51
like Extreme focus on
49:53
your look and body impacted
49:55
your relationship to sex That's
49:58
a good question. I I have Virgo on
50:00
my eighth house, so. Megan,
50:03
you gotta like talk to the girlies that are
50:05
like, bitch, I have no idea what you're talking
50:07
about. I know, I know I'm trying. I
50:10
think. Google it. Yeah, you gotta. Just Google
50:12
it. You gotta deeply Google to understand what
50:14
I'm talking about there, but I, it
50:19
does affect, obviously, anything that's going on
50:21
with your self-esteem affects your relationship to
50:23
sex. But
50:25
I will say, I feel like as
50:27
I took more control of
50:29
my body, actually, because when I
50:32
was younger, it was
50:34
like really scandalous to get anything
50:37
done. So my
50:39
boobs have been fake, by the way, since I was 21
50:41
or two, I
50:45
got them done in between the first and
50:47
second Transformers, but I had them done conservatively.
50:50
I've done this way too many times during this interview.
50:52
I hate it. You gotta like. No,
50:54
you haven't. You gotta AI those out. I
50:57
can't keep doing that. I'll just bump it in your face when
50:59
you do it. Okay. Where
51:02
was I? Okay, so I had them,
51:04
I had, they were very conservative because back
51:06
then you had, everyone did the work, but
51:08
you had to do work that was undetectable.
51:10
Obviously people have been doing work since
51:12
Hollywood began. That's the way the studios would bring you
51:14
in and do a screen test and
51:16
be like, okay, John Wayne, he needs a chin implant.
51:19
Marilyn, she needs a nose. She needs this, she needs
51:21
that. That's the oldest story ever told. But
51:25
back at that time when I was
51:27
doing it, it had to be unnoticeable.
51:30
But I always, that little girl that was in
51:32
the mirror, like where are my boobies? I always
51:34
wanted big boobies. And so I wasn't happy with
51:36
the first set. The same thing was like, can
51:40
we just talk about plastic surgery? Yeah, let's talk.
51:42
Okay. So I'm just gonna
51:44
go through all the things that I've done. Love. Thank
51:57
you. This
52:02
episode is brought to you by Dermalogica. Daddy
52:05
Gang, it is time that
52:08
I introduce you to Dermalogica's
52:10
newest product, the Pro-Collagen
52:12
Banking Serum. I
52:14
may still be in my 20s,
52:16
okay, young and getting it, but when

54:25
these things We bully. You know of my

54:32
and on like I want to interact with
54:34

54:36
them to start pouring into my instagram feed
54:39
or my my comments and they're often from
54:41
women were all the like. Holy
54:43
shit, that is a particularly cruel
54:45
thing to say. Who is this
54:47
person and I'll click on it.
54:49
And so the like: Women's Lives
54:51
Coach. Crystal Healing
54:54
loving dancer at last
54:56
June. Divine. Feminine
54:58
and she's under my plan.
55:00
And. Being. Like you know,
55:03
com crucify me for being plastic or
55:05
whatever. So there's but they're If you
55:07
were to ask her, she would be
55:09
like will. That's because she perpetuates an
55:12
unhealthy standard of beauty right by. And
55:14
so here I am. I'm going to
55:16
be fully transparent. I still won't win
55:18
because there are some girls who have
55:21
been to I've been transparent. I don't
55:23
like bring people in but someone like
55:25
a highly has been very transparent that
55:28
is not helping her. people are women
55:30
are still brutally dragging her just. The
55:32
same and totally undeserved. She's a
55:34
beautiful, healthy, young, gorgeous girl, and
55:36
I actually feel, for whatever reason, very
55:38
protective. When I watch other girls go
55:41
through this, I want to defend them
55:43
or. Go. To war
55:45
for them By it's. A lot
55:48
of hey I'll go through piercings I
55:50
haven't done that I have been accused
55:52
of the over and now confirm the
55:54
things that are cause I've never had
55:56
a facelift of any kind so no
55:58
made facelift know like lateral brown that
56:00
although I would like one or know
56:03
regular brow lift arm i've never done
56:05
threads I have research center's not because
56:07
of some moral thing. I. Just.
56:09
Don't. Really believe they work and I'm
56:12
also afraid they would interfere when I do
56:14
need to have a facelift. But I am
56:16
very tempted to go have my eyebrows not
56:18
like all the way I want. I want
56:21
outlook sometimes I seen such and you can
56:23
do it all. Lunch break and I see
56:25
why. It's so tempting and I I have
56:27
researched it have not done it yet. I'm
56:30
I've never had this on what is it?
56:32
Oh block google fat buckled now Buckles articles.
56:34
I've never had that done. I'll never have
56:36
any fat removes. I'm a very like lean.
56:39
Person. That doesn't have enough body fat
56:41
or fat in my face so I
56:43
will only ever put fat in. I
56:45
will never be taking fat out. Which
56:47
leads me to I've never had any
56:49
like liposuction, her body contour and anything
56:51
like that. I've never had. What?
56:53
Are other things and can have. But.
56:56
Implants. I mean I'll I'll be l
56:58
l flattered If somebody thought I had
57:00
an evil guy that ever a likelihood
57:03
I would. I saw a very old
57:05
i don't have the extra body fat.
57:07
I would get it done if I
57:09
can go air out for an that
57:11
that. Surgery. Is such
57:13
a hard one to recover from it? So insane.
57:16
It's basically like three months you have to lay
57:18
flat on your face a could never hear me
57:20
rules for an eternity if I were to ever
57:22
do that. I. Would come out
57:24
with ivy league if I'm going to
57:26
survive that surgery you're going to give
57:28
me. And asked. It's
57:30
like an anomaly like i'm your, I'm gonna
57:33
walk through a park and I'm going to
57:35
turn around and every one is gonna be
57:37
whispering in, laughing and talking because they're like.
57:40
What are your? Why are we looking at
57:42
like a circus freak that if I'm going
57:45
to that healing process through gritted the i
57:47
want that I'm not coming out with like
57:49
I owed Is she the has she been
57:51
like really hitting the gym lately Actress gloss
57:54
know I wanted to be months for? yeah
57:56
it's guy the it's guess thought people and
57:58
their track. However,
58:01
I don't have the body fat to do
58:03
that's less ever going haven't But at the
58:05
time when when in the future you can
58:07
take donated fat from people I will be
58:09
doing that and you will be seen. The
58:11
situation is a twisted go down in the
58:13
park. Okay what you want to have had
58:16
done. Like I said, I had my son
58:18
when I was. Plenty. One
58:20
or twenty three other I hired.
58:23
Them. Read on after I was on breastfeeding
58:25
my kids, he has I. I. Don't
58:27
know where they went, but they went
58:29
and that had to have them read
58:31
on very recently because the first set
58:33
I didn't have enough body fat to
58:35
disguise. You could see the rippling of
58:37
the implants. I had to switch them
58:40
out to this that I don't like
58:42
surgery. My body does not react well
58:44
the general anesthesia and so. When.
58:46
I go to have surgery. it's a very
58:48
big deal and I have my all my
58:50
doctors up to me with me before have
58:52
to tell me if they've seen any omens,
58:54
if they saw any owls, crows if anyone
58:56
stepped on a spider, if I knew their
58:58
and he dead. Inside flakes by doctors.
59:01
Have to go see this with me because
59:03
I'm very afraid of dying under general anesthesia.
59:05
So I don't take surgery lightly and therefore
59:07
I have not had many of them because
59:09
of that. Such probably a saving grace that
59:11
I had this paranoia or the sphere because
59:13
god knows what I would have been up
59:15
to. Your doctor think you're insane. I go
59:17
down a raw meat know the lower you
59:19
said yes, I saw an hour Meghan, let's
59:21
reschedule. We did we all. And by the
59:23
way, I'm like I'll still pay for the
59:26
surgery, just do not. Also, make sure the
59:28
music playlist. No music comes up that reminds.
59:30
You like your ex girlfriend or an ex wife
59:32
or anything was gonna make you upset because more
59:34
the surgeon you need to be in a good
59:36
had space. If you have a fight with your
59:39
wife do not come in for surgery. I go
59:41
through all of these protocols. you should make us
59:43
all like a list of i a little pre
59:45
are you selling it wants it Any surgery is
59:47
a risk your life I don't care what anyone
59:50
says ride out the truth Go Hundred General Anesthesia
59:52
is a risk your life so on. When I
59:54
had to go in for this said I would
59:56
like look. If. You're going to put me to
59:58
sleep if I'm going to be. For two months
1:00:00
from the general Anesthesia. If I'm
1:00:03
gonna feel if I'm gonna go through cause
1:00:05
I'm not fully ever asleep some my soul
1:00:07
like fighting on the surgical table or wake
1:00:09
up. It's a very traumatizing experience for me.
1:00:11
I was like I better wake up with
1:00:13
the biggest boobs you can fit and my
1:00:15
body. And. That.
1:00:18
Is what he said He did. And
1:00:20
they're not even not big Era thirty two
1:00:22
d which is not that big they just
1:00:24
look big on my bike as nobody's tiny
1:00:26
right right by if they give you could
1:00:28
have gone bigger I would have had him
1:00:30
go bigger because I don't like surgery and
1:00:32
the fact that I had to do it
1:00:34
I was like I want to reward for
1:00:36
the suffering I have to go through. I
1:00:39
don't want to wake up with a full
1:00:41
because there's no fucking point and not not
1:00:43
doing it for it You want a the
1:00:45
I wanted to eat I said I want
1:00:47
I don't care was on try and give
1:00:49
me night t Ninety stripper. Pity.
1:00:52
That's. What I want. And he did it. Grow
1:00:55
your to me that thank you and then
1:00:57
on. I had my nose on when I
1:00:59
was the my early twenties and that's something
1:01:01
I've literally been accused of having like. Six.
1:01:03
Seven Eight Rhino classy surgeries which
1:01:06
is impossible your nose would get
1:01:08
necrosis and fall off on. I
1:01:10
hadn't hired. I. Write up last
1:01:12
the since I was. I'm
1:01:15
gonna say twenty three. It's been well over a
1:01:18
decade guy that I've not touched my nose and
1:01:20
then. We. Didn't contour
1:01:22
my know. If. We
1:01:25
didn't call, you know we did and
1:01:27
your nose looks tiny thawed out for
1:01:29
we didn't contact your fire icon for
1:01:32
a half. actually. show everyone hike on
1:01:34
We my know, shut the fuck have
1:01:36
you your no, no, no I can
1:01:38
make it pony like a little elvin
1:01:40
princess. I'll make it so small within
1:01:43
within one inches. It's allies like pawns
1:01:45
works and so I think people think
1:01:47
I keep constantly working on. it is
1:01:49
just the contour. I can't believe I
1:01:51
can't believe I'm doing an interview with
1:01:54
Out Knows Com Drawn! I'm traumatize
1:01:56
you daughter's they want a big the oldest
1:01:58
and likely not having done my eye. brows
1:02:00
very scary for me. I'm traumatized
1:02:03
that you think that your nose
1:02:05
won't look good right now because
1:02:07
I'm like the fuck this one.
1:02:09
I like I like to contour
1:02:12
it down until it's just nostrils
1:02:14
like Voldemort. No, no, just just
1:02:16
two holes here. Wait, after this,
1:02:18
can you know how you contour your nose and I'll do
1:02:20
it next to you? Yeah, but I'm
1:02:22
I'm breaking out and I'm not I don't
1:02:24
have it on you look so gorgeous. You're
1:02:27
gonna keep going. This is good for you.
1:02:29
This is good for you. She's got to
1:02:31
keep going. Okay, you've had your nose done.
1:02:33
You've had your tits done and what Botox
1:02:35
and filler that's Yeah, that's it. Right? Oh,
1:02:38
there's one thing I had done that
1:02:40
I'm gatekeeping because sorry,
1:02:42
what it was it was really good. And
1:02:44
it's not a known like
1:02:46
plastic surgery. People don't even really know about
1:02:48
it. Will you tell me off camera? Yeah,
1:02:51
you don't need it. I don't think really
1:02:53
you're not gonna want it. I wanted it
1:02:55
very badly and I needed to do it
1:02:57
and it's something that can you give us
1:02:59
a hint now? No. Okay,
1:03:02
so that's it. Yeah, it's actually
1:03:04
not that much. Right. Not that in terms
1:03:06
of surgery. It's not that much. When it
1:03:08
comes to lasers and stuff like that. I've
1:03:10
done everything you could possibly think of doing
1:03:12
and I always will. I don't understand the
1:03:14
point of shaming people for getting
1:03:17
stuff done. Granted, I'm
1:03:19
not encouraging anyone to do
1:03:22
anything crazy. And like I said, you need
1:03:24
to be very safe and very careful when
1:03:26
you do any of this stuff, even fillers,
1:03:28
like people that get fillers in their nose,
1:03:31
you can get necrosis from that. Like, none
1:03:33
of this shit is really safe. It
1:03:35
all comes with a risk. So I'm
1:03:38
not encouraging people to just go out like
1:03:40
blindly and do things you should do your
1:03:42
research. However, it's a very weird thing to
1:03:45
shame somebody for. And coming back
1:03:47
to your question about sex. Yeah, the
1:03:49
more that I've taken control of my
1:03:51
body and done the things that
1:03:53
I've always wanted to do, the more comfortable
1:03:55
I am in my body and the more
1:03:57
freedom I have sexually and the more in
1:04:00
I feel sexually and I'm more
1:04:02
like playful and confident in that
1:04:05
way versus when I was Wearing
1:04:08
a body that didn't feel like my body because
1:04:10
I always wanted it to be different Yeah, I
1:04:13
appreciate you sharing that though because they think you're
1:04:15
right It's like to the women
1:04:17
that are shaming women for getting work done
1:04:19
If you are so triggered
1:04:21
that probably means you have an insecurity Where
1:04:24
have you maybe you've thought of getting fillers or Botox
1:04:26
or something? But maybe you're too scared so the new
1:04:28
shame women that have done it It's
1:04:31
like why if and if you don't want
1:04:33
it, why do you care if another woman
1:04:35
gets it? It's all projection when someone is
1:04:37
so angry looking at you It's it
1:04:40
is based in some form of jealousy like we have
1:04:42
to just call it what it is But also where
1:04:44
does the logic end of like what?
1:04:46
Why won't you take it to shaming people
1:04:49
for coloring their hair? So
1:04:51
true, you know what I'm saying or
1:04:53
wearing gel nails or where does that
1:04:56
logic right now? Yeah, yep, what's what's
1:04:58
natural enough for you and
1:05:00
then what's fake and What's
1:05:04
the barometer? I'm like, why do we all
1:05:06
have to follow some kind of a standard?
1:05:09
It doesn't make any sense like can we
1:05:11
talk about your book for a second? Yeah
1:05:14
so you released your book
1:05:16
pretty boys are poisonous and
1:05:20
You basically write about the
1:05:22
fact that you have your entire life
1:05:24
kept the secrets of men Which
1:05:26
again if anyone asks like why it's like we
1:05:29
kind of talked about that today. It's like What
1:05:32
the fuck you're gonna if you say it no one believes you
1:05:34
or they shame you or they call you a whore like There
1:05:37
are certain reasons why women don't come forward
1:05:39
and say these things and you wrote a
1:05:42
lot in this book One
1:05:44
of the things one of the common themes I wrote
1:05:47
down was like throughout the book you talk about Minimizing
1:05:50
yourself in order to
1:05:52
make a man or men feel comfortable
1:05:55
and confident and important
1:06:00
When was the first time you remembered
1:06:02
doing that in a relationship? Like bringing
1:06:04
yourself down? So tricky because
1:06:06
my relationships are public. So it's hard
1:06:08
to say, but I would say very
1:06:10
early on, like when I first started
1:06:13
going to
1:06:16
award shows and things like that, feeling
1:06:20
judged for like
1:06:23
my naive excitement over like first
1:06:25
experiencing some kind of success or
1:06:28
like being at like, Oh my
1:06:30
God, I'm at the MTV Awards. Like, Whoa, this is
1:06:32
so cool. And not being met
1:06:34
with what
1:06:36
felt to be criticism or judgment and
1:06:39
then me shrinking and
1:06:42
receiving the message that it
1:06:45
was embarrassing to like
1:06:48
these things or to be happy to be a
1:06:50
part of these things and that I needed to
1:06:53
quell that and reject
1:06:55
it maybe. Have
1:06:57
you ever had someone that
1:07:01
like had a very strong opinion to be like, you're
1:07:04
not allowed to wear that or don't
1:07:08
be like as outgoing in at
1:07:10
events? Like how controlling have
1:07:12
you experienced relationships become? I
1:07:14
haven't had somebody control
1:07:18
clothing and things like
1:07:20
that. But
1:07:23
definitely, yeah, definitely
1:07:25
just down to like maintaining too
1:07:27
much eye contact with someone else
1:07:29
or having being
1:07:32
too curious during a conversation or to
1:07:34
the point where it's like,
1:07:36
well, I just won't talk to anyone. I
1:07:39
just won't look at anyone. I won't shake
1:07:41
anyone's hands. Like I'll just
1:07:43
sit. And that's that's one of the poems you're referring
1:07:45
to is I think it was the art of becoming
1:07:47
an accessory and feeling like an accessory
1:07:49
where I'm there. But why
1:07:52
am I there? And what am I doing?
1:07:54
I don't have like, I don't have a
1:07:56
presence here because I'm not allowed to be.
1:07:58
Another theme is toxicity in the book. I
1:08:01
wanted to read you this particular line. I prefer
1:08:04
the agonizing psychological
1:08:06
abuse of this trauma
1:08:08
bond to the
1:08:10
prosaic tedium of a regular
1:08:12
life Why
1:08:15
do you think you gravitate
1:08:17
towards toxicity over? stability
1:08:21
Because stability sounds boring Like
1:08:24
it it does That's the
1:08:26
truth. It sounds like
1:08:29
it's not romantic. It doesn't sound like
1:08:31
it's passionate the
1:08:33
literal definition of passion is to suffer and
1:08:37
It doesn't it just sounds I would
1:08:40
rather be in Something
1:08:42
this is not to encourage others to do
1:08:44
this But my
1:08:46
personal Psychosis an issue
1:08:49
is that I would prefer
1:08:51
to be in something dramatic
1:08:53
and toxic versus something Stable
1:08:59
keep in mind. I've never experienced like
1:09:01
truly stable So if I were to
1:09:03
honestly experience it, I would probably have
1:09:05
a lot of peace and
1:09:07
would accept it Yeah, but I've never
1:09:09
had it. So to me the idea
1:09:11
of it sounds very boring Boring
1:09:14
I want to read part of this heartbreaking poem
1:09:16
that you wrote because it's fucking
1:09:19
heartbreaking you say There
1:09:22
was a time where I had never heard
1:09:24
a man call me stupid
1:09:27
pathetic bitch cunt
1:09:30
slut Idiot, and
1:09:32
there was also a time When
1:09:34
I had never felt a man's hands hit
1:09:37
me Suffocate me or throw
1:09:39
me to the ground But
1:09:41
now if one of those things hasn't
1:09:43
happened by Wednesday, I consider
1:09:45
it a miracle when I
1:09:47
read that to you How
1:09:50
does it make you feel? I? Just
1:09:53
associate from the physical violence a lot
1:09:55
and even when I talk to my
1:09:57
therapist I have yet to be able to have
1:09:59
like a strong emotional reaction to that,
1:10:02
because I compartmentalized that.
1:10:05
And that sort of just jumped over my
1:10:09
logic, my logical brain and went right
1:10:11
into my body. So I need
1:10:13
to probably do a lot of like somatic therapy
1:10:15
to work on that. But
1:10:18
I am not able to feel emotional when I
1:10:20
write about it or when I talk about it.
1:10:22
It's basically like describing a movie. The
1:10:25
gaslighting and the name calling and
1:10:27
the mental emotional abuse,
1:10:29
I do get very emotional about that.
1:10:32
I am very like present with that. But
1:10:35
how do I feel about it? I don't know. Well,
1:10:38
part of me feels like exposed because
1:10:40
I wrote this book with things
1:10:43
like that in it. And
1:10:45
so to hear someone else read it, I'm like, okay,
1:10:47
I wrote that for everyone to read for all of
1:10:49
eternity. They can revisit that book. And I did it,
1:10:51
but I did it for a reason. Why
1:10:54
did you do it? One for myself,
1:10:56
I think because obviously
1:10:58
it was therapeutic to get
1:11:01
it out and to get it out in a
1:11:03
way that's different than to just
1:11:05
talk to a therapist and like the words
1:11:07
float away into nothingness
1:11:10
to put it into a book. I
1:11:13
know that it'll find even if
1:11:15
it's only one person, it'll find
1:11:17
someone that needs to read it.
1:11:20
And they will experience some kind of
1:11:23
healing or some kind of inspiration from
1:11:25
it. And therefore that gave my pain
1:11:27
a purpose versus me just
1:11:29
trying to heal privately. And
1:11:32
it also just felt like a demon I needed
1:11:34
to have exercised from my
1:11:36
body like I needed to I
1:11:39
needed to get it out in this way. Do
1:11:42
you remember the first time that a man
1:11:44
hit you? Yes.
1:11:48
I can't I don't know that
1:11:50
I can tell the story. I
1:11:53
have to be so careful. Of course, of course.
1:11:55
I guess I could just ask like, once
1:11:58
something happens more than once. There's
1:12:01
a way that you can almost, I
1:12:04
don't want to say like normalize it, but
1:12:06
you have you do you acclimate to it.
1:12:08
Yeah. When it happened the
1:12:10
first time. Do
1:12:13
you remember your reaction and like how
1:12:15
you handled it and move? Yeah, I
1:12:17
fond. That was my initial
1:12:20
reaction that freeze,
1:12:22
fight, flight,
1:12:25
fawn, fawning is like, it's
1:12:27
a combination of freezing and then
1:12:29
also attempting to soothe the other
1:12:31
person. So that was
1:12:33
my initial reaction. And it
1:12:35
was very, it was definitely
1:12:38
shocking. But like
1:12:40
I said, I almost immediately compartmentalized
1:12:42
it and went into the like
1:12:46
took on went into nurturing the other person
1:12:48
to like calm the
1:12:50
situation. And I
1:12:52
don't know, I just I just took it
1:12:55
on as my own burden right away instead
1:12:57
of feeling the trauma. But
1:13:00
I think that's like really relatable. And
1:13:02
that's how fucked up it is to
1:13:04
be a woman. Like we're trained to
1:13:06
like make men feel like you're it's
1:13:08
okay, like make them feel comfortable also
1:13:10
because I think it's a survival mechanism
1:13:12
because if you can deescalate a situation
1:13:14
with a man, you, you don't know
1:13:17
how much farther that was going to go. So our
1:13:19
brain goes to it's like I was talking to my
1:13:21
therapist about this the other day, she was like, I
1:13:24
call it like the blowjob effects. It's like when you're
1:13:26
about to get sexually abused or something's
1:13:28
about to happen. It's like you can
1:13:30
rationalize like, okay, if I just give him a blowjob,
1:13:32
that will stop me from having to have sex with
1:13:34
him. And then people will shame you like you gave
1:13:36
him a Oh, so then but so you did it's
1:13:39
like, you don't know what's going to happen. They
1:13:41
could have a gun they could try to fucking kill you. We
1:13:43
know what men are capable of. And
1:13:46
so there's moments where it's just survival. Again,
1:13:48
I think it's such a privilege standpoint when
1:13:50
people would be like, what do
1:13:52
you mean you soothed him? I
1:13:54
know exactly what you mean. You immediately
1:13:56
go into survival mode of how do I
1:13:58
completely deescalate the situation? The
1:14:02
poem you wrote called Rape, did
1:14:06
anyone in your life know that you
1:14:08
had survived that type of sexual abuse
1:14:11
before you wrote this poem? Yeah.
1:14:15
Not my parents or like my
1:14:17
family, but people that I've been
1:14:20
with like have known. Did your family reach out
1:14:22
to you once the book came out? No.
1:14:26
Interesting. Did that
1:14:28
shock you? No. I'm so
1:14:30
sorry. That's okay. I mean,
1:14:32
that's... But that's telling of the relationship. Yeah.
1:14:37
We're going to move on to your relationship a
1:14:39

1:16:26
going to move on to your relationship
1:16:28
a little bit. Okay. Mr.
1:16:30
MGK, obviously this
1:16:32
book has a lot of heavy topics and
1:16:35
I know you clarified on multiple
1:16:38
interviews you did, I'm not just writing about
1:16:40
one person, I'm talking about my life experience,
1:16:43
but how did that book just impact
1:16:46
your relationship in the moment? Did it open wounds?
1:16:48
Did you have to have a lot of conversations?
1:16:50
I can imagine it was tough. Yeah.
1:16:52
And because some of the poems are about him and
1:16:55
they're obviously about him, like a 32 year
1:16:57
old narcissist attempts to quantify his crimes.
1:17:00
It's about him and he knows it's about him. And
1:17:03
there are other ones like Ghost of
1:17:06
Christmas Future, obviously about him. But
1:17:10
I also didn't really write anything about
1:17:12
him that he hasn't said about himself
1:17:14
in his own music. However,
1:17:17
that doesn't make it any less sensitive
1:17:19
for him to experience me
1:17:22
writing about it because obviously he feels in
1:17:24
control when he's telling his own story or
1:17:26
even like maybe he's able to hide
1:17:29
behind the music a little bit, even though he's
1:17:31
saying all the same things. It felt
1:17:34
different in this
1:17:36
format. So obviously he would
1:17:39
have to be asked for his experience, but
1:17:41
it was not easy.
1:17:44
And I think he was like really nervous
1:17:47
and worried because there's a lot
1:17:49
of explosive content in the book,
1:17:51
obviously. And there was
1:17:53
some fear there. And also,
1:17:55
I mean, some of them
1:17:57
are about him and are savage. They
1:18:00
are Megan, they definitely are.
1:18:02
They're, go
1:18:05
read the book everyone. I feel like everyone has
1:18:07
such like an opinion on your guys' relationships. You
1:18:09
know, you got engaged and I think it was
1:18:11
called off then we don't know what's going on
1:18:13
with you. Like how would
1:18:15
you describe your relationship with MGK?
1:18:21
I think that
1:18:23
what I've learned from being in
1:18:25
this relationship is that it's not
1:18:27
for public consumption. So
1:18:29
I think as
1:18:31
of now, I don't have
1:18:33
a comment on like the
1:18:35
status of the relationship per se. What
1:18:37
I can say is that is what
1:18:39
I refer to as being my twin
1:18:41
soul. And there will always
1:18:44
be a tether to him no matter what.
1:18:46
I can't say for sure what the capacity
1:18:48
will be but I will always
1:18:50
be connected to him somehow. Beyond
1:18:52
that, I'm not willing to explain but
1:18:56
all those things you said were accurate,
1:18:58
things that have occurred. And
1:19:00
I could see them being confusing or interesting
1:19:02
to people and them being like, what's
1:19:05
up? Yeah, I mean, yeah,
1:19:08
I think the reality is like reading your
1:19:10
book, I was like, holy fuck. This is,
1:19:14
some of this is traumatizing. This is
1:19:17
scary. This is sad. This
1:19:21
is really relatable. Like I think, and
1:19:23
I think that's what you just explained you
1:19:25
wanted to do with the book is like,
1:19:27
I think a lot of women, which is
1:19:29
unfortunate and sad for us as women that
1:19:31
a lot of people can be like, uh-huh,
1:19:34
I've experienced that and that and that. And
1:19:36
I think what's sad is like so many
1:19:38
people probably don't know how many women have
1:19:40
gone through that. How many women have
1:19:43
normalized getting hit or
1:19:46
getting verbally, physically, emotionally
1:19:49
abused. Like it's everywhere.
1:19:51
It's one in three
1:19:53
women. Like it's so fucking prevalent.
1:19:55
And I think our culture likes
1:19:57
to just turn a blind eye.
1:20:00
and pretend it's not happening. So like, I
1:20:02
appreciate you writing the book, but I agree. I think a
1:20:04
lot of people are like, you
1:20:07
okay? Like, are we still in this relationship? And
1:20:09
that's for you to decide. Like, I don't think,
1:20:11
I think you're right. It's like, for everyone, fuck
1:20:13
off. You're gonna decide what you're gonna do. And
1:20:16
also, he gets to write his fucking music. Yeah.
1:20:18
And I think you, as an actor, it's not
1:20:20
like you get to be like, let's change this
1:20:22
role to be more like that. Like, this is
1:20:24
an expression for you that I bet was like,
1:20:27
healing in a way to like, put it out and
1:20:29
let it go. Yeah. It also
1:20:31
was written just from the like, one
1:20:34
angle of my perspective, meaning this
1:20:37
was me being like, I'm
1:20:39
writing this from my anger of all
1:20:42
these men, all these experiences that I have
1:20:44
had. It's not an objective view of my
1:20:47
roles in the relationship. Like I said,
1:20:50
like, I failed many times
1:20:52
inside the different relationships and was not
1:20:54
a flawless.
1:20:56
Yeah. I was not
1:20:59
a pure victim. Like I did plenty of
1:21:01
things and provoked plenty of things, not in
1:21:03
terms of violence, but like, I
1:21:06
provoked pain or issues inside the relationship
1:21:08
as well with my behavior. But the
1:21:10
book was not written in a holistic
1:21:12
way. It was written from my anger
1:21:14
and my pain needed to speak. And
1:21:16
that's what the book is. Yeah. Okay.
1:21:19
I have a couple more fun questions.
1:21:21
Okay. First of all, because we're going
1:21:23
to transition and help the girlies out. Okay. How
1:21:26
have you gotten to a place
1:21:28
in your life where you do not give a
1:21:31
fuck about what other people think
1:21:33
in their opinions? I have not gotten to
1:21:35
that place. Oh, wait, Megan, I thought you
1:21:37
did. No, no, no, we still care. No,
1:21:41
I, I, I guess, like
1:21:43
I said earlier, it is a thing of like, I
1:21:46
would never change anything about myself
1:21:48
to appease someone. Yeah. Like publicly,
1:21:50
I would never do that. I
1:21:52
actually had to one time during
1:21:55
Brian was in a custody case with his,
1:21:57
his child and sometimes a part of
1:21:59
those. a part of the process is
1:22:01
everybody has to do a psych evaluation. So
1:22:04
all four adults had to
1:22:07
go undergo psychiatric evaluations.
1:22:09
And mine came back and they took
1:22:11
note of the fact that I was one of
1:22:13
the only people that had never
1:22:16
attempted to slant the test because
1:22:18
it's human nature to want
1:22:20
your best self to be seen. So when
1:22:23
people are being tested, it's
1:22:25
often that they will not
1:22:27
lie per se, but mislead or like
1:22:29
present a truth that is an entirely
1:22:32
accurate out of wanting to
1:22:36
be liked. And I don't have
1:22:38
that function or that mechanism. So
1:22:40
I, they took note of
1:22:42
the fact that that was completely absent from my
1:22:45
psych evaluation, but not in a
1:22:47
like sociopath way, but
1:22:50
in a way where I'm
1:22:52
just not somebody who's going to bend unless I'm
1:22:54
only doing what
1:22:57
I believe in the end, like that will
1:22:59
never change. But that doesn't
1:23:01
mean that it doesn't hurt my
1:23:03
feelings. When people spew venom
1:23:05
or negativity or hatred towards me,
1:23:07
I'm very permeable actually, because I'm
1:23:10
very sensitive. And yes, I've been
1:23:12
wearing that armor, but the armor
1:23:14
is heavy. And at
1:23:17
a certain point in my life, I was down
1:23:19
to get some blood on my blade and like
1:23:21
go to war if I needed to, but I'm
1:23:24
tired now. And it's, it's
1:23:27
actually wearing on me a lot
1:23:29
in this particular moment for whatever
1:23:31
reason, things are coming to a
1:23:33
head for me. And I'm not in a place where
1:23:35
I don't give a single fuck. I
1:23:37
do get hurt. That won't change who I am
1:23:39
and how I am and how I speak and
1:23:41
how I proceed with my life. But I do
1:23:44
still feel the pain of that. How
1:23:46
do you as a mother handle
1:23:49
knowing people are like, like going
1:23:52
to try to get at your kids
1:23:54
through you and knowing you, like, are
1:23:56
you paranoid at all with
1:23:58
that? Yeah. a lot of sleep
1:24:01
about that, especially because at least one of them
1:24:03
is I know going to be in
1:24:06
the public. Probably all three of them,
1:24:08
they're like drop dead gorgeous kids and you know,
1:24:11
they're both of their parents are actors in
1:24:13
this industry. So it's likely that they're going
1:24:16
to have some type of public
1:24:18
platform up at a certain point. I
1:24:20
worry about that every day. You talk to them about that.
1:24:22
Yeah, not yet. My oldest is 11. And
1:24:25
my kids were not allowed. They weren't raised with
1:24:27
screens and they don't have iPads
1:24:29
or anything like that at my house or phones. I
1:24:32
can't keep that up forever. Eventually that
1:24:35
will happen. I'm trying to delay it
1:24:37
as long as possible. But when they get a little
1:24:39
bit older, it's still too early.
1:24:41
And it's also, I
1:24:43
don't want to put the weight of my experience on
1:24:45
them. I want them to have their
1:24:48
own experience and I don't want to preload
1:24:50
it by being like, this
1:24:53
is all the suffering that mommy's been through.
1:24:55
This is how the world treats mommy. You
1:24:57
know, mommy's never been loved. Mommy's always been
1:24:59
bullied. Mommy's always, mommy doesn't belong. Like they
1:25:01
don't need to feel that. So
1:25:04
I haven't found the right way to talk to
1:25:06
them about that, but I will have to with
1:25:09
certainty. And yes, I lose a lot of sleep
1:25:11
about that. Somebody should ask Brian
1:25:13
that question. He's watched
1:25:15
me cry so many times. He's
1:25:17
always like, are you okay? Because
1:25:20
every school meeting I'm just weeping. Like
1:25:22
I'm always crying because I know what's
1:25:24
coming and I'm not able to live
1:25:26
in this moment because I know what's
1:25:28
ahead. And I'm, I'm not
1:25:30
prepared emotionally to have to do it. I
1:25:33
can't do it. It's a lot.
1:25:35
Yes. Okay. You're going to
1:25:37
give the girl. I thought you said there were fun.
1:25:39
It's right here, right here, right here. Okay.
1:25:42
You are funny, by the way. Thank you. We
1:25:44
should do like a part two where we only talk about
1:25:47
funny shit. Okay. We just let you go.
1:25:49
Okay. So let's just start on
1:25:51
a couple of scenarios. Okay.
1:25:53
What would you say to someone who, and then like
1:25:55
it's a girl going through it. Okay.
1:25:57
This girl sees a hot guy at a bar, but
1:25:59
it's too nervous to go up to him and make
1:26:01
the first move. What would you say to her? It's
1:26:04
not gonna be worth it anyway. Ha
1:26:07
ha ha ha ha. Meckin'. Not.
1:26:12
You're like, you're the same bitch that's getting fucking cum
1:26:14
in your mouth. Like go home. It's not gonna be
1:26:16
worth it. Go home. It's not
1:26:19
gonna be good. Would you ever go up and
1:26:21
approach a guy? I can't
1:26:23
be bothered. It's not, what
1:26:25
do they give you really? What
1:26:27
do you get out of it really? I'm sorry. Have
1:26:31
you ever gotten a magical dick? Have
1:26:34
you ever been, gotten
1:26:36
a sacred dicking down where
1:26:39
you're like a better human
1:26:41
afterwards? Have you?
1:26:43
Because if you have, please tell me. Please
1:26:46
tell me. But in my experience, that's
1:26:48
not what happens. And it's not worth
1:26:51
the drama that they bring and they cause.
1:26:53
It's not worth it. Your dick needs to
1:26:55
be in direct proportion to the drama that
1:26:57
you cause. And
1:26:59
if it's not, then you need
1:27:01
to fuck the fuck off. I
1:27:04
mean, they'd be so little or they'd be huge.
1:27:07
There would be no like medium boyfriend
1:27:09
size six anymore. Wait, how
1:27:11
did you meet Colson? Did he go up to you?
1:27:14
Oh no. No.
1:27:18
For the audience, I did
1:27:20
not connect to those things. So I just
1:27:22
wanna make sure that those, that's not an
1:27:24
ongoing continuation of the sentence. Yes, yes, yes,
1:27:27
yes, yes, yes. How
1:27:29
did you meet him? Did you go to him? I met
1:27:31
him on set and we were in a scene together. Oh,
1:27:33
wait, wait, wait, the music video. No, no,
1:27:35
no, it was before that. We were doing a
1:27:38
movie that will forever be upset that we're, we
1:27:40
met on the set of that movie,
1:27:42
but we were doing a scene and
1:27:45
I had seen his picture before he showed up and I
1:27:47
knew just from his picture, I was like, I
1:27:50
recognize that person. And then I looked in his eyes
1:27:52
and I was like, oh yeah, it's you, I've known
1:27:54
you for thousands of years. So
1:27:56
we were in a situation where it wasn't really
1:27:59
about one person coming. up to the other. He's
1:28:01
very shy and he'll tell you he's
1:28:03
very awkward as well. So he's not
1:28:06
somebody who like picks up girls. He's
1:28:08
just gorgeous and a famous musician so
1:28:10
he gets them easily but if he
1:28:12
was not famous he would be struggling
1:28:14
because he's not good
1:28:18
at that. He isn't. He's a brilliant
1:28:20
musician. He's not good at picking
1:28:23
up girls or conversation. Are you
1:28:25
good at it? I
1:28:28
would say that's so
1:28:30
subjective. But no, I don't
1:28:32
think I'm good at it because I don't like
1:28:34
to. I don't do how girls
1:28:36
flirt. I don't like. I can't be bothered
1:28:38
to do that. I also
1:28:41
ask them questions they've never been asked before that
1:28:43
they don't want to answer like like why like
1:28:45
the questions you're asking me and shit we're talking
1:28:47
about now where I'm like what's your deepest mother
1:28:49
wound like no no
1:28:52
guy likes to talk about that shit especially
1:28:54
right away when they don't know you right
1:28:56
you're like let's talk about what happened what
1:28:58
happened in the childhood they're like huh yeah
1:29:01
what are you most traumatized by what's
1:29:03
your weirdest fetish what's your
1:29:05
like yeah they don't they
1:29:08
don't like to feel exposed so I'm not
1:29:10
a good dude I'm not good at that
1:29:12
because they just want you to be pretty
1:29:14
and really dumb and I don't like
1:29:17
to play that game. I agree.
1:29:19
What if a girl keeps comparing herself
1:29:21
to her best friend how do you
1:29:23
stop comparing yourself to women? That's
1:29:26
a great question. I don't
1:29:28
know that I've ever been in that you
1:29:30
mean it from like a standpoint of jealousy
1:29:32
comparing to or and more of like an
1:29:35
envy because there's so many it could
1:29:38
have a venomous element or it could just
1:29:40
be like wow I'm really
1:29:42
proud of my best friend I wish I
1:29:44
could get my shit together and be like
1:29:46
that there's different aspects to it one I
1:29:48
think is not necessarily unhealthy to be inspired
1:29:51
by your friend and to take
1:29:53
notes and want to move in that direction but
1:29:55
if it's unhealthy and it's toxic I don't know
1:29:57
that I have great advice.
1:30:00
like you have to start working on yourself
1:30:02
and because you have insecurities and things that
1:30:05
you you need to heal and Probably
1:30:09
desires need to be satiated and all of these
1:30:11
other things that that you need to work on
1:30:13
because Jealousy will always be there with your friend
1:30:16
or with Just
1:30:18
all others sucks. Okay.
1:30:20
What if a girl is hung up on a
1:30:22
guy who ghosted her after a date? What
1:30:25
do we do Megan? I? I
1:30:29
don't know. I can't be friends with that person
1:30:33
You can't be friends with the girl No,
1:30:37
what do you mean? Is
1:30:39
that rude? I can't be
1:30:41
friends with that person She's
1:30:45
upset after she went on a
1:30:47
date with a guy one time and he ghosted her.
1:30:49
Yeah, he still is obsessing over him You
1:30:54
can't be friends I
1:30:57
can't do that That wasn't the
1:30:59
question I can't be friends
1:31:01
with her I can't be friends with
1:31:04
her Oh my god I'm peeing We
1:31:07
were not friends with her. Okay. What about a girl
1:31:09
that's too afraid to tell her partner that she's never
1:31:11
had an orgasm Well,
1:31:16
you gotta just you gotta do that you gotta you
1:31:19
gotta say that that's that is I Feel
1:31:22
like all of us have been in that position at one time or
1:31:24
another That
1:31:26
is not worth living like that
1:31:29
though. You cannot What
1:31:32
is the fear that he's gonna feel
1:31:34
so insecure What do you
1:31:36
do it overwhelmed? How would you do it? Is
1:31:39
the question specifically? I've never had an
1:31:42
orgasm with you or I've never had
1:31:44
an orgasm with you. That's a different
1:31:46
question. I Think
1:31:49
how long has it been? I'm
1:31:51
making this up. Well, if it's been a
1:31:53
week versus ten years, then like it's been
1:31:56
like a year That's
1:31:58
a long time because now you're a liar. That
1:32:06
are One hundred. Keep up that I. Know
1:32:09
you're a fucking liar, you know. But
1:32:11
now you have to answer for a
1:32:13
little. Why have you been lying for
1:32:15
year? Like, don't let it get to
1:32:17
that point. I understand of fear of
1:32:19
being intimidated or worrying or whatever. You
1:32:21
can't live like that. You have to
1:32:24
understand the a orgasm. If he's entitled
1:32:26
to an orgasm, you are entitled to
1:32:28
an orgasm. The and so don't let
1:32:30
anything any kind of fear talk you
1:32:32
out of being able to speak that
1:32:34
truth. This is your body. and orgasms
1:32:36
actually keep women very healthy. It's a
1:32:38
vitamin. And you have to prioritize
1:32:40
that so don't be afraid. And if
1:32:42
he has a problem with that, he
1:32:44
is not for you. And I promise
1:32:46
you, the dig wasn't that good anyway
1:32:49
obviously because are not com. A
1:32:52
man Or a million bucks question? What do you
1:32:55
think this next chapter of your life will look
1:32:57
like for you? I think you're about to disappear.
1:33:01
On I didn't have. I am on like
1:33:03
the cliff of I Don't I don't know
1:33:05
I'm either going to really has some kind
1:33:07
of like breakthrough. Where I do transcendent is
1:33:09
some like. Bliss Law, higher
1:33:11
level of consciousness or find some
1:33:13
kind of purpose being in service to
1:33:15
people or I will disappear again.
1:33:17
I feel like I handled that wrong
1:33:20
the first time now and I
1:33:22
regret some of those years that I
1:33:24
law so I don't think I'll repeat
1:33:26
that. However, I am on the
1:33:28
precipice of what am I about. To.
1:33:31
