Heidi Montag auditions for 'Transformers 3', kind of

When Megan Fox's "Transformers" option wasn't picked up for the third movie, lots of names were tossed around as we tried to figure out who would replace her. There were rumors that Katie Cassidy and Brooklyn Decker were in the running before the Rosie Huntington-Whitely became the front-runner.

One person who was not up for consideration? "The Hills" cast member Heidi Montag.

Of course, not being asked to audition didn't keep Heidi from... well, auditioning. She shot a video of herself at American Defense Enterprises and then tweeted it to a person she assumed was Michael Bay. In the video, Heidi whips out a handgun and takes down nine targets. We're sufficiently terrified, Heidi. Please put the gun away.



It turns out that the account Heidi tweeted does not belong to Michael Bay, but a Michael Bay imposter. The fake tweets gems like, "I resent having to show up at the DMV for this photo and wait in this line, which is EXACTLY why I'm doing these pushups."
