Megan Fox put on a racy display in a sheer brown top while stepping out in New York City, following the release of her new poetry book Pretty Boys Are Poisonous.
The star, 37, appeared in high spirits while arriving to her book talk on Tuesday night, after opening up about suffering a miscarriage, at 10 weeks, with her fiancé Machine Gun Kelly, and getting out of multiple ‘abusive’ relationships with some ‘very famous’ people over the years.
As she made her way through a autograph seekers to enter the Racket, the mother-of-three sported a racy tank, tucked under a long leather skirt.
The beauty, who debuted a bright crimson red hair color in September, accessorized her edgy ensemble with a pair of black latex boots and glamorous makeup look.

Fox carried a copy of her heartbreaking and dark collection of poetry, featuring more than 70 poems, which debuted at the number one spot on Amazon’s Best Sellers chart for the Poetry by Women category.
In its introduction, she wrote that her poems were inspired by ‘previously unspoken feelings of isolation, torment, self-harm, desperation, longing, restlessness, rage and general anguish.’
Fox narrated the Audible audio version, which runs 38 minutes.
The poems titles include Lessons in Hot-Boy Demonology, It’s Giving Patrick Bateman and The Avarice Pursuit of Money Power and Glory.
‘Some poems contain a Grimm’s-fairy-tale-type element, and others serve the same purpose as memes in online culture. All of it is something women can relate to,’ she told People on Monday.
Becoming an author gave her ‘freedom’ after spending her life ‘keeping the secrets of men.’
‘Acting doesn’t really allow me to express myself fully in the way writing does because I’m reading someone else’s words under someone else’s direction,’ she explained. ‘Poetry gives me a space to experience some catharsis through art.’
Ultimately, she admitted that she ‘didn’t even bother sending the majority of what’ she wrote to her editor ‘because they were too graphic and unsettling for others to read.’

During an interview on Good Morning America earlier this week, Megan opened up about her past connections with some well-known people that ‘no one knows’ about.
‘I have only been publicly connected to a few people… but I shared energy with, I guess we could say, [with people] who were horrific and also very famous, very famous people, but no one knows that I was involved with those people,’ she said.
Megan admitted that she felt the need to start writing poetry about her past experiences because it was ‘something inside of me that had to come out because it was going to make me sick.’
The Jennifer’s Body star confirmed that some of the book is ‘definitely a metaphor’ for how she was treated in Hollywood, but also stressed: ‘None of it is what I would call fictional, those are all real life experiences that I had.

‘This is not an expose that I wrote or a memoir. But throughout my life, I have been in at least one physically abusive relationship and several psychologically very abusive relationships.’
She continued: ‘I wrote a lot of things that didn’t make it into the book because I was like, this is maybe for God’s only. Some of it is too much when you are a known person.
‘If I had the freedom of just being a poet and people not really wanting to dig too much into my personal life, I would have included more entries like that.’
During the interview, she also explained how the ‘very difficult’ miscarriage sent her and Kelly – real name Colson Baker – on a ‘very wild journey together and separately.’

‘I had never been through anything like that before in my life, I have three kids,’ she said in a pre-recorded segment on Tuesday’s show.
‘So it was very difficult for both of us and it sent us on a very wild journey together and separately, and together and apart, and together and apart, and together and apart trying to navigate what does this mean and why did this happen.’
The Transformers star, who has three children Noah Shannon, 11, Bodhi Ransom, nine, and seven-year-old Journey River with her ex-husband Brian Austin Green, writes about an ultrasound of a baby girl at 10 weeks in her new book.
Lines from one poem include: ‘I want to hold your hand / hear your laugh… but now / I have to say / goodbye.’

She also writes: ‘I will pay any price. Tell me please / what is the ransom / for her soul?’
Back in May 2022, Machine Gun Kelly appeared to refer to their loss when he dedicated his Billboard Music Awards performance of his song Twin Flame to Megan, and said: ‘And this is for our unborn child.’
The actress said the book is a message to women that they don’t need to remain silent, adding: ‘It gives an elegant place for your pain to live, to put it into art makes it useful to other people so you don’t just suffer with it on your own.’
Megan and Kelly went public with their relationship in June 2020, just one month after it was confirmed that she had split from her then-husband Brian.
Megan and Brian’s divorce was finalized on October 15, 2021, just three months before she announced her engagement to Machine Gun Kelly.
