Megan Fox has finally reacted to a US reality star who was relentlessly bullied for claiming to look like the Hollywood glamour.

The US actress broke her silence on Love Is Blind star Chelsea Blackwell controversially comparing their looks, telling E! News that viewers “went too hard” on the 31-year-old.

“I did see a picture of her,” the Transformers star, 37, said. “A hundred thousand per cent, people have told her, ‘You kind of look like Megan Fox.’”

Fox noted that she “believe[s]” Blackwell was “telling the truth” when she confessed to fellow contestant Jimmy Presnell in the pods that she resembled “[Machine Gun Kelly’s] wife or his fiancee.”

The flight attendant was swiftly “humbled” by the internet, which went hard on her for the claim.

“I hope like she still has that sparkle in her eye,” Fox said of Blackwell being “bullied” over the viral moment. “I hope the world didn’t steal it from her.”

While the Jennifer’s Body star doesn’t “really watch TV very much” and has not seen the Netflix show herself, she has “never had more people text [her] about something.”

Fox recalled, “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.’”

Elsewhere in the interview, Fox told single women to “learn a skill or develop a hobby” instead of wasting their time “on boys.”

While she did not specify her current relationship status, Fox told Call Her Daddy listeners in March that she and MGK, 33, had called off their engagement.

The rapper, who got down on one knee in January 2022, later wrote via Instagram Stories that he had “started smoking again.”

He reacted to her recent comment about “boys” via Instagram over the weekend, writing, “Preach.”

The duo started dating in 2020, shortly after Fox and then-husband Brian Austin Green broke up.

The “twin flames,” who are reportedly living separately, first sparked split speculation in February 2023.

While they have remained quiet about the reasons behind their rocky romance, Fox published a book of poems nine months later titled Pretty Boys Are Poisonous.
