Megan Fox has reacted to allegations of "xenophobia" that were directed towards her after she commented on the widespread hullabaloo over a picture of herself taken at the Super Bowl.
On Instagram, the actor from Transformers made a post where she characterized her appearance in the picture as resembling a blowup doll from Ukraine or a high-priced sex doll exclusive to Japan.
Several supporters categorized the remarks as "xenophobic", compelling the performer to confront the allegations on the social networking site.
"Goodness gracious. That's not what I intended to convey. Ukrainian females are exceedingly attractive and hence, in my mind, the inflatable dolls would also be so. Allow a girl to crack a joke, for the love of all that is sacred," she expressed.
In some news, Fox was talking about a photo of herself with her partner Machine Gun Kelly, as well as Taylor Swift and NFL star Travis Kelce. They were all in a club with low lighting.
The picture became a sensation on the internet, with a few admirers hypothesizing that Fox, who is 37 years of age, appeared to have undergone substantial cosmetic procedures and looked "remarkably dissimilar."
The performer from Jennifer's Body replied to the negative comments on Instagram by stating that the photo in question was of poor quality and made them appear like an unrealistic Ukrainian doll.
She added: "To be honest, I resemble one of those high-end lifelike sex dolls that are exclusively available in Japan."
Supporters remarked that Fox appeared 'utterly transformed' in recent snapshots.
Joe Oravec, who can be found on Instagram under the username @joeoravec3, has a lot to share with his followers.
After that, she posted two pictures of herself taken on the same evening under different lighting conditions, to assure individuals that the deep shadows had accentuated her facial attributes.

"Guys, can you believe how unchanged I am? I don't look different at all," she remarked.
Fans criticized Megan Fox for her remarks regarding Ukraine and Japan. One social media user wrote, "Megan Fox made an offensive and intolerant comment. Ukrainian women are bravely fighting in a war for their survival and well-being."
The popular influencer from Russia, Polina Pushkareva, shared her thoughts on a photo and remarked that she believes that there is still some intolerance towards people from Eastern Europe present in the Hollywood industry.
"That's an odd thing to share," remarked someone else.
The Independent has reached out to the representatives of Fox to provide their views or response.
Last year, the performer had a conversation with Sports Illustrated where she spoke about her encounter with body dysmorphia.
She clarified that she suffers from body dysmorphia. According to her, she doesn't perceive herself the way others see her. She claimed that throughout her life, she never liked her body, not even once.
In the past, Megan Fox has disclosed that she has had difficulties dealing with body dysmorphia.

According to the Mayo Clinic, body dysmorphic disorder is a mental health issue where an individual constantly thinks about one or more perceived imperfections or flaws in their physical appearance.
In October 2021, Fox disclosed in an interview with British GQ Style that she suffers from body dysmorphia. She also mentioned that despite being fascinated by her appearance, men have made mistaken judgments about it.
The blog writer mentioned that people tend to assume that those who look attractive have perfect lives. However, that is not always the case. The blog writer believes that people who are considered beautiful may not think the same way about themselves. In fact, the blogger confessed that they struggle with body dysmorphia and have several deep-seated insecurities.
