She mentioned similarities to Megan Fox when asked if she looked like a celebrity by fellow contestant Jimmy Presnell. During their conversation in the pods, Chelsea said, "I do too, all the time on the plane! I get one person, and it’s just because I have dark hair and blue eyes. But I don’t see it, so don’t get excited.” She said back at her time in the pods. Jimmy, however, was unable to keep quiet about his disappointment when they finally met. Despite expressing his strong attraction to her, he continuously emphasized that she had misled him about her appearance.
“She definitely lied to me on some uh … how she looked,” Jimmy said in the confession room. “Chelsea told me she looks like Megan Fox. But, you know, at the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter. I’m very attracted to her. I can work with that.” He continued.
