Megan Fox addresses xenophobic backlash after photo with Taylor
‘Dear god that is NOT what I meant.’

However, just hours after these astonishing new celeb NBF pics went viral, Megan found herself the subject of a backlash and accused of Xenophobia for making some ill-advised comments on commentary on her appearance.

After fans took to socials to speculate over Megan's apparently different looking face, she then hit back on Instagram stating: “oh my god guys look how different i…dont look at all. turns out it was just a shadowy cell phone pic of me looking like a ukranian blowup doll. when in REALITY i look like one of those super expensive silicone real sex dolls you can only get in japan”.

Some fans labelled the comments as “xenophobic”, which forced the actor to address the accusations again on the social media platform.

“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,” she wrote.

Famous Russian influencer Polina Pushkareva commented on the image, writing: “I guess xenophobia towards eastern Europeans is still a thing in Hollywood.”

While another wrote, “it’s very rude of you to speak like that about Ukranian women, that's how you showed yourself” and another wrote, “Babe Ukraine is being annihilated in a war. Pls can we just focus on that.”
