A true Barbie girl. Margot Robbie revealed how she filmed the viral high heels scene that left fans with many questions.
In the April trailer for the Barbie movie, the 32-year-old star of Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood confidently walked in sparkling pink heels. Interestingly, when she removed the shoes, her feet maintained the same arched position as the plastic doll's. Robbie recently revealed the behind-the-scenes secret during an interview with Fandango.
"I approached the scene with sticky bits on the floor, specifically designed for the shoes to easily come off," Robbie explained. "In addition, I held onto a bar for support, but that was the extent of it."
The actress from The Wolf of Wall Street explained that she always insists on performing her own close-up shots. She dislikes it when she watches a movie and can tell that it's not her hands or feet being shown. She wants to be the one doing it.
Fans were eager to comment on the TikTok video of the interview that Fandango shared on Saturday, June 24. One social media user expressed, "FINALLY! We wanted to know these details." Another follower admired, "She is like a flawless Barbie doll."
Robbie confidently embraced the theme of the interview, donning a striking hot pink corset top adorned with gold buckles on the straps. Complementing her Barbie-inspired ensemble, she effortlessly paired it with a matching mini skirt, dangling heart-shaped earrings, and effortlessly tousled beachy waves. Adding to her soft yet glamorous look, the Australian beauty opted for a light contour, rosy cheeks, warm eyeshadow shades, and enhanced her lashes with mascara.
Leading up to the premiere of Barbie on July 21, Robbie has been showcasing numerous outfits that pay homage to her character's signature color. On Sunday, June 25, she captivated the spotlight at the Barbie photocall in Los Angeles, dazzling in a stunning fuchsia mini dress. The custom Valentino creation boasted a halter neckline that elegantly crossed around her chest, revealing a tasteful midriff cutout. To complete the ensemble, she accessorized with white stiletto heels, pearl jewelry, and injected a vibrant touch with a studded yellow bag.
Ryan Gosling, who plays Barbie's boyfriend Ken, was photographed alongside his I, Tonya co-star. The 42-year-old actor looked dashing in a pastel and cream-colored cardigan, black pants, a brown leather belt, and a coordinating watch. He styled his blonde hair with a side part, with strands elegantly swept across his forehead.
The dynamic duo wrapped their arms around each other and even posed in front of Barbie’s “dream car” — a bubblegum colored Corvette.
