Jenna Ortega wears NO bra or underwear in skimpy dress as she talks battling 'tension and fear'
made it very clear she is embracing a Hollywood pinup image.
For her new cover of Harper's Bazaar Summer 2025 Discovery Issue - on newsstands June 3 - the Wednesday actress went lingerie free in a bubblegum pink gown.
And the 22-year-old artist made that obvious as the dress was plunging showing off her cleavage. She also lifted the side of the dress to flash her suntan line which made it clear she had on no underwear in a shoot by Willy Vanderperre.
In her interview with writer Carina Chocano the brunette bombshell shared that she struggles with anxiety.
'I was always very existential as a kid,' began the actress.
'The world was always ending. I was worrying about things way earlier than I needed to. My work felt like the safe place. When I wasn't on set, I had a really, really hard time,' said the red carpet fixture who started acting as a child.

Ortega added that her teen years were 'full of tension and fear.'
Jenna also admitted that social media disconnects us from real interaction.
'We're incredibly desensitized and disconnected from real interaction. I mean, God, if you could speak to everybody like Wednesday—just say what you truly mean—it would be amazing!' offered the TV star.
On her character Wednesday: 'She doesn't care. It's pretty funny, when you think about it. She's an outsider, but now she's on these mugs, cereal boxes, and T-shirts.
'You're just thinking, Oh, man, she would hate this!'
Natalie Portman also talked to the publication.
'We're both physically tiny, so people will often treat you like a child forever,' she said.
'I'm 43 now, and people kind of pat me on the head.
'I don't look like a child, but I often feel like I'm treated like a kid. Child actors often cultivate a serious persona because otherwise they'll get treated like kids forever.

'When you start working as a kid, you kind of always feel like a kid in the workplace. Having some of that seriousness helps remind people, 'I'm a grown-up.' '
Jenna said she understood Natalie.
'I relate to that so immensely, and it's always been really annoying, because you just don't feel like you're being taken seriously. You know, it's like how you're dressed in the schoolgirl costume. …
'There's just something about it that's very patronizing. Also, when you're short, people are already physically looking down on you.'
This comes after news Ortega is set to star alongside Robert De Niro in Shutout.
The actress will appear alongside the Hollywood icon in the David O. Russell-led movie, which centers on the story of a pool-hall hustler.
Shutout follows Jake Kejeune, a pool-hall hustler played by De Niro, as he takes Mia, played by Jenna, under his wing. Jake helps Mia to sharpen her natural talents as they compete in the cutthroat world of high-stakes pool.
However, as Mia's reputation grows, Jake is left wondering whether he can steer her towards greatness, or whether she'll ultimately choose to abandon what he's taught her.
Jenna has enjoyed a meteoric rise in recent years, starring in a host of big-budget projects, including Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Scream and the hit Netflix show Wednesday.
