Margot Robbie schools press conference like a boss

WHEN the Aussie star was repeatedly asked in a press conference what it was like to be married she completely schooled everyone.

MARGOT Robbie doesn’t only star as Tonya Harding in I, Tonya — she produced the project.

According to the New York Post, Robbie said, “I had a boss moment the other day.

“I was doing a press conference and they keep asking me what it was like to be married, and I said, ‘Being married is not my achievement. My achievement is producing this film and having a producing deal with a major studio — that is my achievement.’ And everyone shut up after that. It was really nice.”

On playing Harding, she said: “It was an interesting time to reflect on media and how we as a society kind of eat up what we are given and what we are told in these little sound bites, and you pass judgment so quickly.

“So I have learned not to judge so quickly.”

The Aussie star is taking Hollywood by storm with her mounting success in the film industry.

At the moment she is focused on all things Tonya.

Robbie said, “The point of the movie was never to say she was a victim or she was a villain.

“It was just to show that she was a person. That’s what we were hoping to achieve.

“Not for people to think she’s perfect. Just to care for a moment, to feel what she felt, to some small degree.”

She’s also a rumoured contender for the upcoming Quentin Tarantino movie set in the late 1960s and 1970s.

Robbie’s name has been linked to the role of Charles Manson murder victim Sharon Tate.

“I adore Tarantino, I’m a humungous Tarantino fan,” says Robbie, “and if that happens — it’s not official — but if it did happen, I would be the happiest girl in the world.

“So please cross your fingers for me.”
