AceShowbiz - Megan Fox flaunted her sexy body in a cover for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue 2023. For the cover, the 36-year-old actress posed seductively while rocking a barely-there suit in the lush waters of the Dominican Republic.
The "Transformers" beauty left little to the imagination as her swimsuit for the cover was made of gold coins and an intricate body chain. While looking smoldering for the camera, she let the wind hit her brunette locks free as the water splashed at her knees.
Megan also donned a beaded minidress by Celia Kritharioti teamed with a tiny gold bikini bottom from SKIMS. In another picture, which was taken by photographer Greg Swales, the mom of three wore a plunging cutout one-piece from Miaou, a Jeblanc bikini top and matching miniskirt made from strands of colorful stones.
"Shooting Sports Illustrated Swimsuit is definitely a lot of pressure," the fiancee of Machine Gun Kelly told the outlet. "I have a vision in my head that I'm trying to achieve, so we'll see if it pans out for me."
In an accompanying interview, Megan opened up about her body dysmorphia battle. "I have body dysmorphia. I don't ever see myself the way other people see me," the "Jennifer's Body" star shared. "There is never a point in my life where I loved my body, ever ever," she said, adding that she is on a "never-ending" "journey" to love herself.
Megan also admitted that she has always been critical of her image. "When I was little, that was like an obsession I had, that I should look this way. And why I had an awareness of my body that young, I'm not sure," she continued. She went on to say that she hoped people would notice her "rainbow aura."
It wasn't the first time for Megan to talk about her body insecurities. In a 2021 joint interview with MGK, she admitted to having a "lot of deep insecurities." She explained, "We may look at somebody and think, 'That person's so beautiful. Their life must be so easy.' They most likely don't feel that way about themselves."
