When Megan Fox Unintentionally Ignored an 11-Year-Old Fan
When it comes to buyingMegan Foxflowers, it seems like roses are a no-go. Just ask Harvey Kindlon, the actress’ fan, who learned this the hard way back in 2009. When Fox was in the UK promotingTransformers: Revenge of the Fallen, hordes of fans, including then 11-year-old Kindlon, showed up to cheer her (seeDaily Mail).

She shot to stardom inMichael Bay’s sci-fi action franchisewhen she donned the roleof Mikaela Banes, Shia LaBeouf’s character’s girlfriend. As a result, she attracted constant attention from men wherever she went. Kindlon finally took a chance in 2009 after he noticed Fox trotting past him outside her London hotel.
Kindlon seemed really excited to give Fox his gift, but she seemed to ignore him and walk right past him, looking rather disgusted.
It was also fun for the kids on the playground to remind him of the cold shoulder he got; Kindlon had previously toldUNILADthat it began“blowing up more and more”.When Fox, who was 23 at the time, learned of the controversy while onaTransformerspress tour, she apologized publicly to the boy.
With a regretful expression, she gave Collider the explanation (viaPop Culture):
There were, like, 80 million people everywhere. It was dark, all I see are flashes… It breaks my heart… you know his name, and I will send him a personal apology. I’m horrified.
Fox continued with a heartfelt apology, saying:
I’m sorry, sweet boy, I would never do that to you. I would gladly accept your rose if ever see you again. Paparazzi would not let you to me. I’m so embarrassed.
Although he never met Fox, he did meet a number of other celebrities, includingRihanna, Katy Perry, Adele, and even Beyoncé (seePop Culture). The report also states that he has now moved on from his celebrity obsession and works as a hotel host in London, sharing his meet-and-greet stories on TikTok.
