Controversy Arises as Chelsea Blackwell from ‘Love Is Blind’ Claims Megan Fox as Her Celebrity Look-alike
Fans of the hit Netflix dating show, “Love Is Blind,” are buzzing with conversation about contestant Chelsea Blackwell. In a recent episode, Blackwell claimed that she often gets told she resembles Hollywood bombshell Megan Fox. The revelation has sparked a wave of reactions and debate among viewers.
During a casual conversation with her love interest, Jimmy Presnell, the topic of celebrity doppelgängers came up. Blackwell asked Presnell if he ever gets told he looks like a celebrity, to which he replied in the affirmative. This led Blackwell to share that passengers on her flights frequently tell her that she looks like someone.
Blackwell downplayed the resemblance, stating that it’s likely because she has dark hair and blue eyes. She specifically mentioned Machine Gun Kelly’s wife or girlfriend, referring to Megan Fox. Presnell’s face lit up with excitement as he asked if she was claiming to look like Fox. Blackwell reiterated that it’s primarily because of her eye and hair color, although she didn’t completely see the resemblance.
The conversation took an interesting turn when Blackwell and Presnell met face-to-face for the first time during their big engagement reveal. Many viewers noticed that Presnell seemed bothered by the fact that Blackwell looked “nothing” like Fox. In a confessional, Presnell admitted that Blackwell had told him she resembled Megan Fox but stated that it didn’t matter to him because he was still attracted to her.
The reaction from viewers has been mixed. Some social media users criticized Blackwell for claiming to look like Fox, with comments like “more like Megan Faux” and “Love Is Blind and apparently so is she.” Others pointed out that there is indeed a resemblance between the two, particularly from the nose up.
Even former contestant Micah Lussier weighed in on the debate, stating that in certain angles, Blackwell does look like Megan Fox. Lussier urged the haters to stop dragging Blackwell and defended her against the backlash.
In an interview with “Access Hollywood,” Blackwell addressed the attention and backlash she has received. She explained that the comment about looking like Megan Fox was taken out of context. She revealed that Presnell had mentioned looking like NFL star Christian McCaffrey before she made her statement about celebrity look-alikes.
The controversy surrounding Chelsea Blackwell and her claims of resembling Megan Fox has certainly made waves among “Love Is Blind” fans. As the season continues, viewers will be eager to see how the couple’s relationship develops and whether Presnell’s initial reaction will have any lasting impact. The next batch of episodes is set to drop on February 21, and fans can’t wait to see what happens next.
