Megan Fox has been accused of being ‘xenophobic’ while attempting to defend her shock new appearance, likening herself in one photo to a ‘Ukrainian blowup doll.’
The Transformers beauty hit back at trolls on Wednesday, blaming a ‘shadowy’ photo for altering her image but caused controversy as she boasted that ‘in reality’ she looks like a ‘super expensive silicone real sex doll’ from Japan.
‘Oh my god guys look how different i…dont look at all,’ she began her bizarre post. ‘Turns out it was just a shadowy cell phone pic of me looking like a Ukrainian blowup doll. when in REALITY i look like one of those super expensive silicone real sex dolls you can only get in Japan.’
The Oak Ridge, Tennessee-born actress, 37, initially trended on social media on Tuesday after fans claimed they didn’t recognize her in newly-surfaced pictures from her Sunday night celebration at Zouk nightclub in Las Vegas early Monday.
Fox was with her fiancé Machine Gun Kelly, 33, as they celebrated with famous friends Taylor Swift, 34, and Travis Kelce, 34, after his Kansas City Chiefs won their second straight Super Bowl.

The Transformers beauty hit back at trolls on Wednesday, blaming a ‘shadowy’ photo on her altered image but ended up causing controversy with her choice of words that included her comparing herself to a Japanese sex doll
Fox was swiftly slammed by people in the comment section adjacent to the photo, with social media users not holding back their outrage at her choice of words.
One user said to Fox, ‘It’s very rude of you to speak like that about Ukrainian women, that’s how you showed yourself.’
Fox replied, ‘Dear god. that is NOT what i meant. ukrainian women are hot af and so in my imagination the blowup dolls would also be hot. let a girl make a joke for f***s sake.’
The backlash continued as another furious social media user wrote: ‘Not here for taking the p*** out of Ukrainian women. It’s obvious you’ve had extensive work done,’ as another added: ‘it’s very rude of you to speak like that about Ukrainian women, that’s how you showed yourself.’
One user said, ‘Did she really just mention Ukraine?’ while another commented, ‘I guess xenophobia towards Eastern European is still a thing in Hollywood.’
Said one user: ‘Girl you had one opportunity to write a good post about this iconic pic and you write THIS?’
A social media user said Fox had sent a ‘terrible message … to women,’ while one user asked, ‘Is it just me, or was she making fun of Ukrainian girls? It’s a bit of an inappropriate comparison anyway.’
A user noted the political ramifications of Fox’s comment: ‘Babe Ukraine is being annihilated in a war unprovoked. Pls can we just focus on that. Maybe raise awareness for that x just a thought x.’
Fox responded to a user in the comment thread, clarifying how she meant the remark to land

On a similar note, a user said the joke was in bad taste when framed against the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia, which has nearly spanned two years.
‘It’s insensitive due to the situation in the country, furthermore it’s widely known that sex crimes are common war crimes, that makes the joke inappropriate,’ the user said. ‘There’s a time and place for everything, this ain’t it though.’
Another user parsed Fox’s words, saying, ‘I don’t think comparing yourself to a sex doll is a flex? So you are saying you look fake?’
One user said of the photo of the four stars in Sin City: ‘This is celebrity fakeness, greed, gossip, drama, and bulls*** all perfectly summed up in a picture.’
Not all commenters had targeted Fox for the remarks, as some came to her defense, praising her appearance and bemoaning what they felt was hypersensitive reaction.
Said one user: ‘Don’t waste your time. You look stunning ! Let them talk.’
Another user said, ‘Just let the haters hate, f*** them,’ as another described the people in the comment section as ‘SOFT,’ adding, ‘I swear people just look for ANY reason to get pressed, stop taking things so personal.’
Said one user: ‘You look amazing people are just jealous and have nothing better to do with their lives except to make others feel as s***** as they do.’
The photo circulating from the revelrous outing in Sin City posted Tuesday showed both couples posing with one another, posted by Joe Oravec, the managing partner of Barley House Cleveland.
In the pic, the Transformers actress and pop punk rapper flashed peace signs, as she sported pink hair worn up, a spiked collar necklace and a black shirt with an image of a skeleton’s hand.
A number of fans remarked that Fox presented a drastically-different appearance than what they’re accustomed to, going as so far as it question if it was even her.
One user said ‘Where Megan Fox at?’ while another shared a meme that went viral last year of a woman named Tiffany Gomas having a meltdown on an airplane, saying, ‘That’s not real.’
Multiple users pointed out Fox’s stated penchant for consuming blood, and relationship with MGK as a potential reason for the perceived change in appearance: One user said, ‘That’s why you don’t drink blood,’ while another noted, ‘Well when you drink blood and date a vampire.’
One user remarked, ‘What a glow down,’ to the look from the famed actress, who is mother to children Noah Shannon, 11, Bodhi Ransom, 10, and Journey River, seven, with ex-husband Brian Austin Green, 50.
Some social media users implied that Fox’s new look was the result of plastic surgery. One user said, ‘Any more lip pump and she will float away,’ while another remarked that her doctor ‘should be arrested on assault charges’ as result of the work.
One fan posted a vintage photo of the actress, asking what had ‘happened’ to her to cause the change in her appearance, while another user sympathized with Fox’s style choice, saying that they too ‘went through a punk phase.’

The group photo surfaced as Swift shared hilarious footage of Kelce partying with her parents at a Las Vegas nightclub while raunchy music played in the background as he made his debut on her social media.
The 34-year-old pop megastar took to her TikTok on Monday night to share a funny video of herself cringing while her 34-year-old Super Bowl champion boyfriend partied with her parents Andrea and Scott.
The hilarious video begins with Kelce sticking his tongue out before Swift pans to the packed nightclub shortly after leading his Kansas City Chiefs to victory over the San Francisco 49ers, 25-22, in Super Bowl LVIII at Allegiant Stadium.
She then turns the camera onto her parents who are sitting comfortably in the bottle service area while her dad Scott takes a swig from a can.
Finally Swift turns the camera onto herself as she cringes before pursing her lips and looks away from the camera.
The hitmaker captioned the fun video to her 24.4million followers: ‘accidentally going clubbing with your parents is something everyone should try at least once in their life.’
Adding to the hilarity of the video is that Ludacris’ very raunchy 1999 track What’s Your Fantasy is playing in the background.
No doubt it was an awkward experience for the new couple as the Atlanta-based rapper’s chorus went: ‘I wanna, li-li-li-lick you from your head to your toes / And I wanna, move from the bed down to the, down to the, to the flo’ / Then I wanna, “Ahh ahh, ” you make it so good I don’t wanna leave / But I gotta kn-kn-kn-know, what-what’s your fan-ta-ta-sy.’
