Controversy	Robby Starbuck and Megan Fox Controversy (2023) In June 2023, a photo agency issued a legal warning to Robby Starbuck after he used a copyrighted picture of actress Megan Fox and her family in a social media post. In the post, he accused Megan of child abuse for allegedly forcing her children to wear girls' clothes. Later, Megan Fox responded to Starbucks' post by saying,"I really don't want to give you this attention because clearly you're a clout chaser … But let me teach you something … never use children as leverage or social currency. Especially under malevolent and erroneous pretense. Exploiting my child's gender identity to gain attention in your political campaign has put you on the wrong side of the universe." [1]Independent
