Margot Robbie proved she can make even the most casual look runway-ready as she took to the streets during Wednesday’s SAG-AFTRA rally. The Barbie star, 33, was a vision in an oversized white tee, putting her own stylish spin on the protest uniform. With her signature blonde locks flowing freely and chic sunnies shielding her eyes, Margot commanded attention as she proudly held her poster high during the march from Netflix to Paramount Studios.
The Australian beauty was joined by fellow Aussie actress and friend Samara Weaving, who sported a similarly laidback look of green shorts and a white cap. But all eyes were on Margot as she led the pack of protestors through West Hollywood in her effortlessly cool white kicks.
Margot and her fellow actors are currently united with the Writers Guild in the first “double strike” the entertainment industry has seen in over 60 years. The united front is aiming to get more equitable pay and protect workers from being replaced by AI, among other important issues. Read more…
Ah yes let’s talk about what Margot is wearing as the lead in for this garbage article.
I mean, a bunch of us responded so it seems like not the worst choice…
Probably says more about us than the writers.
Wearing a baggy t-shirt like everyone else on the strike is news now?
Also, have I not been vocal enough about my support of the strike here?
Where is my front page post on Lemmy about being “the opposite of a scab”?
You’re a vision in a t-shirt! Your sunnies are so chic! What a stylish spin on… appropriate clothes for a warm sunny day. How do you do it!?
Wait till they see my home outfit of a hoodie, sweatpants and a tub of ice cream.
Scandalous! Content should be marked as NSFW!
@MargotRobbie - B-b-but “you” have… “signature blonde locks”, unlike anyone else in Hollywood.
I think @Mantis_Toboggan is right, this has to have been written by an AI.
Thank you for your service. o7
Well, I think you’re doing a good job modding the android instance.
Thought I’d give Jared Leto’s method acting nonsense of “a reddit moderator” a try.
Turns out to be pretty easy, all things considered.
I haven’t been particularly following the strikes but just scrolling on here I had seen you mention your support for it somewhere.
It’s weird reading this person praising what I assume to be a free t-shirt on par with the ones they give away for running a 5k as a fashion statement.
Hi, local blonde woman pictured wearing a T-shirt here. Since everyone’s still here right now, a reminder again to loudly and proudly show your support to unions, strikes, and worker’s right in every industry. Every little bit counts.
This is a time for real change, it’s a matter of fighting for our survival. Do not fall into despair, because we can win, and despair is the enemy of progress.
This is not the end for us.
Also, want to steal this look? Buy a shirt here.

yes my queen🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏#
I’m tempted to say that if I was a wealthy actor I could take a year off too.
But I actually think this is a pretty significant move for her. She is at the top of her game right now and female actors don’t have a very long window of time where they can stay there. This strike is eating directly into her career prime after she won the 1-in-a-zillion lottery to even make it to that point. And she’s potentially pissing off the studio bosses by doing this, so even if the strike ends she may not be able to resume where she left off.
That all means Margot Robbie is potentially sacrificing one of the sweetest, most lucrative careers in the world to support the Labor movement and show solidarity to her coworkers.
Good for her.
Hey, I’m betting on Lemmy getting big and be the first one to get in, so I can do like a podcast or something for my backup plan.
It’ll all work out. Hopefully.
If I learned anything from Mugatu is that is that anything can be made runway-ready.
Also, I’m willing to bet my lunch money that this article was written by AI.
Pardon my ignorance, but isn’t this writers and actors strike? So she isn’t just showing solidarity by sympathizing with writers, but also striking?
sol·i·dar·i·ty noun 1. unity or agreement of feeling or action, especially among individuals with a common interest; mutual support within a group.
Striking is an act of solidarity by definition.
Yes, but you know what I mean. That the way article used it implied a different meaning, similar as if I (not involved in film or TV), picked up a sign and marched with them.
Take some notes, Drew
The dangers of engaging with content based on title and thumbnail, a case study. Even the first sentence of this is trash.
“Make sure you go down there and take photos of her with a sign.” — Margot’s agent.
I mean she’s Margot Robbie. There are people taking pictures of her anywhere.
It’s nice to just blend in with the crowd here.
You are doing a horrible job at it!
The actors guild is also on strike. So she’s less showing solidarity and more actually on strike.
Generally unions have rules for picketing while in strike, specifically, how much time members are expected to spend picketing. It varies from Union to Union, it could be as little as 4 hours a week, it could be a much as 8 hours a day, and you’re typically paid to picket.
Joining a strike even in your own exact union is still an act of solidarity with your peers. Don’t forget how easy it is to be a scab.
Her agent makes money when she gets roles. And she gets roles when the Hollywood elites give them to her. Joining a strike will not endear Robbie to them. So no, this is not her agent’s wet dream at all.
The Hollywood elite know this strike will end eventually and they know they want to fill movie seats. Endearing her to the masses and making her looking like “one of them” is exactly what people want to see and is just the kind of thing that will fill those movie theater seats when this strike is over. That one photo, assuming it was picked up by all the usual celebrity-worshiping publications and websites, will have upped her desirability by quite a bit. Smart move by her and her people.
This is how viral campaigns work.
Having weirdos take pictures of you in public is a viral marketing campaign now?
Yeah! Where have you been?
I think you are confusing the ability to spin up elaborate paranoias with intelligence.
Geez, they couldn’t write an article about the strike and the issues rather than how “runway-ready” she looks in a t-shirt?
Who??
