Chelsea Blackwell from Love Is Blind shared more celebrity lookalikes during a recent episode of the "After Curfew" podcast. She became popular for comparing herself to Megan Fox. In the podcast episode on Wednesday, April 3, Chelsea, who is 31 years old, mentioned that she had mentioned additional names on the Netflix series that were not included in the final edit.
Chelsea remembered how they misunderstood her when she mentioned liking Adele and Katy Perry. She explained that she actually said she gets compared to one person often, and then mentioned that she also gets compared to Adele and Katy Perry. Despite this, she pointed out that the three singers have very different looks. According to her, Jimmy, her ex-boyfriend, claimed he resembled Christian McCaffrey, a player for the San Francisco 49ers. She mentioned not being able to look him up on her phone without Google.
Chelsea was a polarizing part of season 6 of Love Is Blind, largely because she told Jimmy that she’s been told that she looks like Fox.

“It’s just because I have dark hair and blue eyes. But I don’t see it, so don’t get excited,” Chelsea told Jimmy, who responded, “Can we get married?”
After facing criticism, Chelsea received support from Jimmy. He explained in an interview with We in February that he believes he is partly responsible for the backlash she received. Jimmy admitted that his reaction to a situation was what garnered attention, and he acknowledged that he could have handled it better.
Despite not ending up with Chelsea, Jimmy expressed his opinion that she bears a resemblance to Megan Fox, who is 37 years old. However, he clarified that he does not believe they actually look alike.
The best reality dating franchise is a subjective topic, with different people having their own opinions. Some may argue that "The Bachelor" is the top choice, while others may prefer "Love Island" or "90 Day Fiancé." Each of these shows has its own unique appeal and fan base. Ultimately, the best reality dating franchise is the one that resonates the most with you and keeps you coming back for more.
Chelsea, on the other hand, criticized the public reaction to her comparison.
She expressed, "I'm torn between blaming him and not blaming him. I did say it, but I believe the reason it became such a big deal is because of the 'she lied' narrative." She explained to Us magazine, "It was just a light-hearted, silly conversation between him and me. I didn't even realize I had said it. The fact that it has become such a huge issue is unbelievable."
