There are some stories that celebrities tell that we wish that they had a video for, because we think that the video would be amazing. Even then, the story still makes us laugh.
And we like laughter.
Margot Robbie is the name on everyones lips these days. TBH, the only celebrity that we see people speculate on more is Taylor Swift. But Margot deserves all of the attention, because Barbie is life.
She was at SAG-AFTRA screening of the Barbie film in Los Angeles and told the story of being in a pub in Scotland overhearing a group of men talking about the film. They didn’t notice her sitting there.
She said, “I was in a pub in the middle of nowhere in Scotland and I listened for about 30 minutes to a group of guys on a bachelor party discussing the Barbie movie, not knowing that I was sitting two or three feet away from them.”
People at the table were refusing to see the film and one man tells them, “‘Dude, it is a cultural moment, don’t you want to be a part of culture?”
The man had said that he’d never see it, but by the end of the conversation, the man did want to see it. Robbie wasn’t going to go up to them and say anything but she decided to.
“At the last minute as I was walking out I went to their table and I went ‘Thank you for seeing the Barbie movie’,” she continued, “It was very funny, they lost it. It took a full minute for them to realise and I was practically out the door and they went ‘Ohhhh’.
She added, “People’s reactions to the movie have been the biggest reward of this entire experience.”
We would have died. We’re wondering what the conversation with all the men was like after she left.
