Megan Fox reveals sometimes she feels the 'need' to look naked on the red carpet... after showing off her body in several sheer outfits

Megan Fox has shared that sometimes she just feels the urge to go naked.

The Jennifer's Body star - who recently released a book of poetry - told WWD that the feeling overcomes her.

'That's like, "No, I need to be naked this day,"' the 37-year-old told the outlet.

Fox is nearly as famous for her revealing red carpet looks as she is for her acting career, often covering up just the bare minimum when she hits the red carpet with or without her boyfriend Machine Gun Kelly, 33. 

At the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards she wore a beige sheer dress over a bra and undies that left little to the imagination.

And over the summer she posted a pic of herself in a sheer, skin-tight Jean Paul Gaultier dress that appeared to expose her nipples.

While the Transformers actress may show off her perfect figure in nearly naked looks on the red carpet, the truth is she is very introverted.

'I think a lot of people are under the impression that I like attention, which is hilarious because I'm so tragically introverted,' she said. 

'I wish I loved attention. I would have the best life. I would have so much fun. I have so many opportunities,' the mom of three said. 'I could be doing so many things, but instead, I have crippling anxiety and I never want to leave my house.' 

To underscore her point, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles star, just released her first book of poetry and the attention that came with that caused her first-ever panic attack. 

Her new book, Pretty Boys Are Poisonous, is a New York Times bestseller and writing it was a form of therapy for Megan. Her therapist told her if she kept holding onto her pain it would create illness. Her poems are how she let it all go. 

'I knew that I always had to put it out. I feel like one of my strengths is my spiritual foundation, or the way that I process things and my mindset, and I feel like of all the things I could offer people through the platform that is celebrity, that would be my best offering,' she said. 

'And so something like this I felt had to go into the public because it's hopefully going to be much more impactful than a movie I've done or anything I'm going to post on f**king Instagram.' 

She added: 'I've only ever dated musicians or actors or people who would fall into that pretty boy category, so it just represented my specific experience so well.' 

Megan has three sons with her ex-husband, 90210 alum Brian Austin Green, 50, - Noah, 11, Bodhi, nine, and Journey, seven, and she knows one day they will pick up the book and have questions. 

'I think because I have sons, it's very important to me to raise boys who are not like these men that I've been with,' she said. 'It's very important for me to raise boys who are able to have a very deep emotional intimacy with their partner. 

'It's very important to me that they are not liars, that they are able to be fully transparent and honest and respectful and experience at some point in their life, I don't expect them when they're 16 to have a sacred love, but I do expect them at some point to get to that place, because I am their first introduction into women and the way that I love them is going to influence the way they are allowed to love others when they go out into a relationship,' she continued.

'And so I hope that just through my transparency in the way that I engage with them, in the way that I am demonstrative and affectionate with them, that allows them to love in a really healthy way.'
