Gillian Anderson is planning to let it all hang out.

The two-time Emmy Award winner shared her honest thoughts on brassieres ahead of Tuesday’s announcement of the 2021 Emmy nominations.

On Instagram, the star of “The Crown” star answered a variety of questions from followers, which led to her sharing her honest thoughts about lingerie, particular bras.

The lighthearted 30-minute conversation saw Anderson, 52, explaining that she doesn’t find the undergarment very comfortable and would rather go the rest of her life without wearing one.

“I don’t wear a bra anymore. I can’t wear a bra. I’m sorry,” she declared. “I don’t care if my breasts reach my belly button!”

The comment caught the attention of many on social media, with one viral tweet declaring: “If two time Golden Globe and Emmy winning actress Gillian Anderson says no more bras, who are we to disagree.”

The “X-Files” alum, who just garnered her sixth Emmy nomination for her portrayal of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher in Netflix’s “The Crown,” also revealed that her greatest fear is relaxing, that her first concert — that she could recall — was seeing The Eagles when she was 16, and that she prefers gelato over ice cream.

Anderson is well-known among her 828,000 followers for sharing suggestive imagery on her Instagram page, alongside the hashtags #PenisoftheDay and #BoobiesoftheDay.

The Chicago-born mother of three has been recently cast as Eleanor Roosevelt in the upcoming Showtime Series “The First Lady.”
