Megan Fox reacts as she faces backlash for sharing her friends GoFundMe campaign
Megan Fox is exhausted by people on social media for criticizing her for allegedly sharing a friend’s GoFundMe campaign with her Instagram followers but not contributing to it.
Megan Fox addressed the criticism on Thursday in an Instagram story and wrote, “Hello weirdos. Do any of you possess the emotional intelligence to think that perhaps Brit doesn’t want her famous clients to make huge donations to her since it creates an awkward dynamic in their professional interactions?”
The actress further explained that by posting the fundraising campaign, she was only “obliging” Boyce’s request. Megan Fox continued, “anything she needs from me personally, she will ask and I will do it privately.”
In addition, Fox made it clear that she disapproves of the term ‘miserly’. She continued, “One thing you’re not going to accuse me of is being miserly or lacking generosity.”
Megan Fox concluded her message by saying, “So try again on another day (probably tomorrow!) with some different bullshit, you bunch of psychos.”
Why is Megan Fox facing backlash?
On Monday, Megan Fox, whose estimated net worth is $8 million, retweeted the fundraising page on her social media account. She shared the link to a fundraising campaign created by her friend Brittney Boyce, whose father was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
The actress wrote, “Pancreatic cancer, a rare kind of cancer, was just diagnosed in my friend’s father. If you can help, please do.”
Fans, however, were quick to criticize Megan Fox, claiming that she was hoarding money while requesting financial assistance from those who were significantly less wealthy than she was.
One irritated user tweeted, “Millionaire Megan Fox sharing a GoFundMe for $30k is a joke.” Another user stated, “If I had that kind of money, I’d pay 100% of my friend’s parent’s medical bills before asking strangers to do it.”
A third user remarked, “The highest donation so far is only $300, and it’s linked to Jesus Guerrero.” According to another follower, “Sis should contribute and lead the way.”
Meanwhile, Megan’s name isn’t posted on the GoFundMe page, but it’s possible she made a direct donation to Boyce’s family.
