Put Some Clothes On!:

In my interview with Michael Papajohn who plays Fox's dad in Transformers 2, he talked about his onscreen daughter: "...My friends would call me up and go, 'Hey, is she really that hot?' Or I'd be going there and someone would go, 'Tell me about Megan Fox.' I just say, 'I stayed in the character all the time, so I just kept looking at Megan through the character's eyes.' And I kept saying to myself, 'Please put some more clothes on.' But my buddies would email me – 'Papajohn, your little girl just got voted sexiest woman in the world by FHM...' And I'm texting them back or emailing them, 'Good genes, what can I say?'"
