Why Megan Fox Is Telling Critics to "Calm Down" Over Her See-Through Dress

This is Jennifer's Megan Fox's body, and she's going to wear whatever she wants, thank you very much.

And she doesn't need any haters weighing in on her ensembles. So when the actress recently posted a picture of herself wearing a striped mesh maxi dress by Jean Paul Gaultier to Instagram, she also issued a message to beat any critics to the punch.

"Before you start angrily typing—those are not my nipples, calm down," Fox wrote in the July 25 post. "They are safely and completely hidden under nipple covers so no worries, we will all live another day without a rip in the space-time continuum."

In addition to the dress, the Transformers star sported silver statement necklaces by Dylan Lex and had her hair swept up into a top knot. And she had plenty of fans cheering her on in the comments.

"Goddess energy," Selling Sunset alum Christine Quinn wrote, while Jersey Shore's Jenni "JWOWW" Farley dropped a series of fire emojis.

Though Fox hasn't been afraid to clap back at Instagram commenters before, that doesn't mean that she's totally comfortable online.

"I have social media, but I don't personally use it," she told Glamour U.K. for its April 2022 issue. "I have somebody who posts for me and I decide what I want to say, but I think it's sinister. I think it's evil."
