When Chelsea Blackwell compared to Megan Fox?
In the dating reality show, strangers initially communicate through a wall in rooms known as pods to decide if they want to get engaged. Couples who get engaged then meet face to face and spend time together before finally deciding whether to marry at the altar on their wedding day.
Blackwell had told her fellow contestant Jimmy Presnell: While she was chatting on the pods, Blackwell told Jimmy Presnell that she had often been compared to Megan Fox, although she said she herself did not see the resemblance. Presnell, who had not yet seen Blackwell’s appearance at the time, seemed excited about the celebrity conversation. Blackwell then added that she doesn’t agree with the comparison, so he shouldn’t “get excited.”
After Presnell proposed to Blackwell on the show, he said in a confessional that he felt her co-star “definitely lied to him about her appearance.”
“At the end of the day it doesn’t really matter, I’m very attracted to her. I can work with that,” he said after meeting her for the first time.
Blackwell’s comments about her resemblance to Fox went viral on social media the show’s first six episodes premiered on Valentine’s Day.
