Megan Fox named Sexiest Woman
Megan Fox stars in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

Transformers hottie Megan Fox was just named the Sexiest Woman in the World by FHM, but her eating habits are anything but beautiful.

Megan, 23, revealed during a red-carpet interview for the premiere of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, that she normally eats only once a day! Yikes!!

Fox, who was ordered by director Michael Bay to gain some weight for her role, says she gained 16 lbs. simply by eating three meals a day. "In my normal life I eat maybe once a day at 10 p.m., so I had to just start eating three times a day to gain weight," the 5'5" Megan recalls.

Most fitness and health experts advise people to eat at least three times a day (and two small snacks in between, if possible) in order to keep energy levels up and blood sugar stable. But Fox--who some consider the next Angelina Jolie--confesses she doesn't doesn't take good care of herself.

"I don’t have a special diet, I just sort of exist and survive," says Megan. "I actually gained 8 lbs. for the movie, and then I ended up gaining another 8 lbs.--not at Michael Bay’s request. He’s not super-big on scrawny girls, and so I put on weight to start filming. And then once I was filming, we’re on set a long time and there’s no time to work out and I eat a lot while we’re there because the catering’s really good."

Megan, who's a smoker, admits she's not a workout fanatic. "I’m very lazy," she says. "I have a personal trainer who is supposed to come three times a week. He does Pilates with me and I usually make it to one training session a week."

Fox, who acknowledges she's lucky to not have to work at her looks too much, is prepared to step up her workout routine as she gets older. "I’m 23. I’m prepared for when I hit 28 and I’ve got to change my whole thing," she says. "But, for now, if I can get away with it I’m going to do it. "

And how does Megan feel about the constant media reports comparing her to Angelina Jolie? "I don’t get the actual reference, but I appreciate it. Who wouldn’t?"

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, which co-stars cutie Shia LaBeouf, opened in theaters June 24.
