Megan Fox is giving her take on the Love Is Blind debate after contestant Chelsea Blackwell said on the dating show she was often compared to the Jennifer’s Body actress.
Blackwell appeared in Season 6 of the Netflix reality competition. During one of her pod dates, she said many people said she looked like Fox, which went viral on social media. Blackwell would soon find herself in the middle of a debate, being mocked and ridiculed by viewers.
Fox was recently approached about the moment and said that she’s been asked about it a lot recently, including at the Oscar parties.
“I’ve never had more people text me about something because I don’t really watch TV very much,” she told E! News. “But I’ve had a lot of people text me and stop me. Even other celebrities at like Oscar parties were like, ‘Do you watch Love is Blind?’ And I was like, ‘No, but I know what you’re talking about.’”
She continued, “I didn’t watch it, but I think in general, no one deserves to get bullied. I don’t think she deserved that. I think people went way too hard.”
On the Netflix series, Blackwell noted that other people told her she looked like Fox, but she didn’t see it herself. However, Fox has since seen photos of the Love Is Blind contestant and can see a resemblance.
“I did see a picture of her,” she said. “A hundred thousand percent, people have told her, ‘You kind of look like Megan Fox.’ So I believe she’s telling the truth and I hope like she still has that sparkle in her eye. I hope the world didn’t steal it from her. Mine died long ago from being bullied for 20 years. So I hope that didn’t happen to her. Best wishes and blessings.”
