Megan Fox once offered a surprisingly unglamorous glimpse into life away from Hollywood, admitting in a June 2007 FHM interview that she could be messy at home and sometimes forgot to flush the toilet. The decades-old confession has now resurfaced online, giving social-media users a fresh reason to react to the actress's candid description of her everyday habits.
Fox's comments covered everything from leaving clothes wherever she took them off to needing friends to remind her about the toilet. One commenter described the habits as 'very manly', while other users shared their own opinions about the unusual confession.
Fox Admitted She Was Messy at Home
Fox was unusually open about her domestic habits during the FHM interview, describing herself as 'horrible to live with' and saying she did not regularly clean. She also explained that her clothes could end up wherever she happened to take them off, offering a very different kind of celebrity anecdote from the glamorous image associated with her career.
The comments were not presented as a major revelation about her personality. Instead, they were Fox's own description of how she behaved at home at the time, making the confession notable mainly because of how ordinary and unpolished it sounded.
Her Clothes Could Be Left Wherever
One of the simplest details from the interview was also one of the most relatable. Fox said her clothes ended up wherever she took them off, suggesting that putting everything away was not necessarily a priority in her daily routine.
That detail has since taken on a life of its own online, particularly because it contrasts so sharply with the carefully styled appearances expected from a Hollywood actress. Still, the original interview simply recorded Fox talking about her own habits rather than making any broader claim about her lifestyle.
The Toilet Confession Stood Out
Fox's most memorable admission concerned the toilet. She said she sometimes forgot to flush, adding that friends would point it out when she had left a toilet unflushed.
The detail has been repeatedly reproduced in later collections of Fox's quotes, with E! Online also identifying the comments as coming from FHM in June 2007. Rather than being a recent claim made about Fox, it is therefore a decades-old statement attributed directly to the actress.
What the fuck do you mean she doesn't put the toilet seat down???? She got a dick??

The Old Interview Keeps Resurfacing
The FHM comments have appeared in multiple later compilations of celebrity quotes and stories about unusual celebrity habits. BuzzFeed's 2009 collection, for example, reproduced the remarks and attributed them to FHM, June 2007, while a later BuzzFeed feature again cited the 2007 comments.
That repeated circulation helps explain why a confession that is nearly two decades old can suddenly become conversation material again. The underlying information has not changed, but social-media users can encounter the quote years after Fox originally gave the interview.
“It’s horrible living with me,” Megan Fox admitted.

The actress, known for years as one of Hollywood’s most glamorous stars, revealed a surprisingly messy side of herself during an interview with FHM magazine.

One Commenter Called It 'Very Manly'
The resurfaced discussion has also produced its own commentary. One social-media commenter described Fox's habits as 'very manly behaviours', while other individual users responded with more critical or insulting remarks.
Those are actually very manly behaviors

Those reactions should be understood as personal opinions from individual commenters rather than evidence of a wider consensus about Fox. The original FHM interview itself does not characterise the habits in those terms, and Fox's own comments remain separate from how strangers online have interpreted them.
A Very Different Side of Fox
The enduring appeal of the story comes from the contrast between Fox's polished public image and the mundane nature of what she chose to discuss in 2007. Instead of red carpets or designer outfits, the actress was talking about clothes being left wherever she took them off and occasionally forgetting to flush.
The comments were made in June 2007, according to the FHM attribution reproduced by BuzzFeed and E! Online. Nearly two decades later, the old confession has simply found a new audience online, giving Fox's candid account of her home habits another unexpected moment in the spotlight.
