Megan Fox is firing back at critics who have been making negative comments about her appearance during the 2024 Super Bowl weekend. The 37-year-old actress, known for her roles in movies like Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, took to Instagram to address the trolls.
In a series of photos, Fox is seen with her fiancé, rapper Machine Gun Kelly, as they pose with Taylor Swift and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, at Resorts World Las Vegas' Zouk nightclub. The pictures were originally shared by a Chiefs fan named Joe Oravec.
Unfortunately, instead of focusing on the fun and positive aspects of the night, some internet trolls decided to target Fox's facial features and accuse her of having plastic surgery.
Responding to the criticism, Fox sarcastically captioned her Instagram post, saying, 'Oh my god guys, look how different I…don't look at all. 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.' She added a crying laughing emoji to add a touch of humor to her clapback.
This isn't the first time Fox has opened up about her struggles with body image. In a previous interview for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2023 issue, she revealed that she has body dysmorphia and has never truly loved her own body. She explained that even as a child, she had an obsession with trying to look a certain way, which she believes wasn't influenced by her religious upbringing where bodies were not acknowledged.
For Fox, learning to love herself has been a 'never-ending' journey. Despite the hurdles she faces, she continues to embrace her uniqueness and refuses to let online negativity get to her.
Before the Super Bowl festivities, Fox and Machine Gun Kelly had enjoyed themselves in Vegas. They attended a Future concert together, matching in all-black outfits. Later on, Fox made a solo appearance at The One Party by Uber, rocking a studded black corset top, latex pants, and clear heels, exuding confidence and style.
Rumors of their relationship being on and off again have been circulating, but recent sightings of them together at an improv comedy show suggest that they are indeed still going strong. An insider revealed that they appeared cozy and enjoyed a date night at the back of the venue.
It's unfortunate that even celebrities like Megan Fox have to deal with body shaming and negative comments about their appearance. However, Fox's response shows her resilience and refusal to let the critics bring her down. As she continues her journey of self-acceptance, she serves as a reminder to everyone that embracing one's uniqueness and loving oneself is an ongoing process that requires strength and resilience.
