Megan Fox's Mom Makes News

Megan Fox

Actress Megan Fox suffered a bit of embarrassment recently when her mom, Darlene Tonachio, deflated her bisexual stripper story she told the press to appeal to certain men.

Megan, who is aiming to be like her role model, Angelina Jolie, in getting similar tattoos and trying to become bisexual, proclaimed to GQ that she went out with a female Russian stripper when she turned 18. Her mom, skeptical of the story, indicated Megan likes to exaggerate.

Hollywood puts a lot of pressure on women to swing both ways, which leaves many of them emotionally disturbed and looking to drugs as a refuge from the industry lifestyle. What makes it even worse is the young girls at home, feeling pressured to be bisexual in order to be popular and instep with Hollywood trends.

Do not do that to yourself. It will create a lot of despair, depression and dysfunction in your life in trying to live up to someone else's fantasy of what a woman should be. The men projecting this image as the standard aren't anything to write home about anyway. Furthermore, if someone loves you they will not be asking you to do things you do not want to do.

Megan Fox’s Vero mom: The skinny on stripper

“Well, that year my boyfriend broke up with me, and I decided — oh man, sorry, mommy! — that I was in love with this girl that worked at the (L.A. mammary Mecca) Body Shop,” Fox told the men’s glossy. “I decided that I was going to get her to love me back, and I went out of my way to create a relationship with this girl, a stripper named Nikita.” Well, Page 2 LIVE just had to find mom to ask how she feels about it.

Darlene Tonachio, 56, happens to live in Vero Beach. She’s a real estate sales agent specializing in trailer parks, and she manages a retirement community near Naples.

“I love my daughter dearly,” said Tonachio who, believe it or not when you look at her picture, was made a grandma twice over by her other daughter. “But Megan is, well, Megan. She’s open and honest. She’s a real person, which is refreshing. I know she has a good sense of humor, and I take this interview in that context.

“Is it all true? I don’t know. It’s possible she made it up just like it’s possible that it happened. I doesn’t really matter to me.” ...

“I doubt that she did that while living with us,” said Mom, “The poor child was grounded most of her life. She’d be punished for something silly, and she’d mess up again before her grounding period was over. So we’d tack time on.”
