The actress broke her silence on the Season 6 “Love Is Blind” star comparing their looks, telling E! News Saturday 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 percent, 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 fiancée.”
The flight attendant, who has since also shared comparisons to Adele and Katy Perry, was later “humbled” by the Internet.
“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.”
