Megan Fox addresses ‘xenophobic’ backlash after photo with Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce and Machine Gun Kelly
However, shortly after these impressive new celebrity photos started circulating widely, Megan received a negative response and was accused of displaying xenophobic behavior due to some unwise remarks she made about how others commented on her looks.
Following rumors circulating on social media about Megan's altered appearance, she responded on Instagram by saying, "Oh my goodness, folks! Just check out how different I am... not different at all. It turns out that it was merely a photo taken with a cell phone in poor lighting, which made me resemble a Ukrainian inflatable doll. In reality, I look like one of those ultra-expensive, lifelike silicone sex dolls that are exclusively available in Japan."
A portion of the audience criticized the actor's remarks as "xenophobic", prompting them to revisit the allegations once more on social media.
"Oh my goodness. That was not my intended meaning. I think Ukrainian women are incredibly attractive, so in my humorous thoughts, even blowup dolls would be just as appealing. Can't a person make a joke without causing offense?" the writer expressed.
The well-known influencer from Russia, Polina Pushkareva, expressed her opinion about a picture, mentioning that there still exists prejudice against individuals from Eastern Europe in Hollywood.
One person expressed their displeasure by saying, "Your comments about Ukrainian women are extremely impolite, and it reflects poorly on yourself." Another individual stated, "Let's concentrate on the fact that Ukraine is currently engaged in a devastating war."
