There were many notable moments during the McGregor vs. Poirier UFC fight and not all of them happened inside the ring. Everyone who’s anyone came out to watch the event including movie star actress Megan Fox.
Being an A-lister, Fox was seated in the VIP section along with all the other stars like Mel Gibson, Jared Leto, and a Kardashian or two. But in the massive crowd of Hollywood stars, Fox found herself seated to one of the most important people in the country and she had some mixed feelings about it.
Megan Fox talked about sitting near former President Donald Trump at the Conor McGregor-Dustin Poirier UFC fight in Las Vegas, calling him a “legend.”
“I was in a row with [Justin] Bieber, [Donald] Trump was also in my row,” the 35-year-old actress revealed during her appearance on the Tuesday “Jimmy Kimmel Live” show.
“And I’ve never seen a secret service person before,” she added. “So, he [Trump] had like 30 secret service with him. He was a legend. That arena was, like, very supportive of Trump when he came in.”
“I was like, ‘I don’t know how I feel about this, because if someone is a target, then I’m like, I could get harmed because I am like adjacent to where he is.’ So, I was worried about my own safety, that’s all I was caring about.”
Fox, who has starred in many box office hits like “Jennifer’s Body” and “Transformers,” said she had never seen anything quite like it and said the encounter was bazaar.
Former President Donald Trump was welcomed by a sea of cheers from the crowd unlike the CEO of the New England Patriots, Robert Kraft, whose image on the jumbotron incited a roar of boos.
