Megan Fox has never been one to shy away from a little bit of chaos, but her latest social media move has fans doing a double-take. UFC welterweight star Colby Covington, famously known by his nickname “Chaos,” has sensationally revealed that the Jennifer’s Body actress once reached out to him privately to profess her admiration.
Because Covington is the ultimate “villain” of the Octagon, he did exactly what you would expect: he shared the receipts with the world. Appearing in a video with streamer Neon, the fighter dropped the bombshell that his longtime celebrity crush is actually a major fan of his work.
“My whole life, the baddest b—-, I always thought it was Megan Fox,” Covington admitted. He then revealed that his fantasy became a reality in his inbox when the actress reached out directly. “After one of my fights, she messaged me,” he recalled. “She was just like, ‘Colby, you’re my favorite UFC bad guy.’”
Megan Fox’s Deep Analysis of a UFC Bad Boy
But the message did not stop at a simple compliment. In true Megan Fox fashion, the actress seemingly offered a spiritual and psychological deep-dive into Covington’s controversial public persona.
According to the leaked thread, Fox analyzed the fighter’s brash antics. “Rooting for you tonight. You’re my favorite UFC bad guy since Chael [Sonnen],” she wrote. “It’s probably hard to keep up that character all the time when you’re naturally a sensitive, sweet person.”
Fox did not just analyze his personality; she actively encouraged his wild public act. “It’s worth it,” she allegedly added in the DMs. “You’re so funny and talented, you deserve to be a superstar.”
Social Media Reacts to the ‘Predictable’ DMs
Fans on X and TikTok were quick to point out that this “I can see the real you” energy is peak Megan. The actress has a well-documented history of being drawn to high-drama figures, most notably her intense connection with Machine Gun Kelly, and finding a sensitive soul beneath a rough exterior.
“Megan Fox sliding into Colby Covington’s DMs is the most predictable thing ever,” one fan joked on X. “She loves the bad boys who are secretly sensitive. She just finished dating the rock star equivalent of a UFC villain!”
Another user wrote, “Megan looking at a UFC fighter who insults everyone and thinking ‘he’s actually a sweet, sensitive soul’ is so on brand for her.”
Colby Covington Proves He Loves ‘Chaos’
While Covington’s fighting record has seen some ups and downs, including three undisputed title challenges against stars like Kamaru Usman and Leon Edwards, his ability to stay in the headlines remains undisputed. By leaking these messages, he has once again proven that his nickname is a lifestyle.
When asked by the streamer if he usually keeps his private life under wraps, Covington cracked, “I don’t like to kiss and tell.”
The irony was certainly not lost on viewers, as he had just broadcast the private thoughts of one of Hollywood’s biggest A-listers to the entire internet. As the leak continues to trend online, many are wondering how Fox feels about her private, sensitive reading of the athlete being used for public clout.
