Margot Robbie stuns in pink crop top and skirt for Oscars Nominee Luncheon despite Best Actress snub
BARBIE star Margot Robbie gets dolled up for the Oscars Nominees Luncheon in a pink high-waisted skirt, crop top and jacket.
Despite missing out on the Best Actress award, Aussie producer Margot, 33, and her hit movie are in the running for Best Picture.
Poor Things star Emma Stone, nominated for Best Actress, and Emily Blunt, up for Best Supporting Actress for Oppenheimer, were also at the Beverly Hills bash.
Earlier in the week, The Sun reported how the actress wore a plunging dress at the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards ceremony in her Gold Coast home town.
After posing with fellow Aussies Rebel Wilson and Cate Blanchett, Margot scooped the Trailblazer Award and International Best Actress for her lead role in the Barbie movie.
The film and cast won seven other gongs.
Last month, The Sun also revealed that Barbie power duo Margot and Greta Gerwig’s Oscars snub was due to jealousy and top female stars refusing to back them, according to a Hollywood insider connected to the franchise.
Lead Margot and director Greta, 40, were said to have been left reeling after they were passed over for nominations.
The pair were expected to be in contention after the summer box-office smash became a darling of critics and grossed $1.4 billion.
Adding insult to injury, Margot’s male co-star Ryan Gosling got a Best Supporting Actor nod for his role as Ken among a total of eight nominations for the film, including Best Picture.
An insider laid out for The U.S. Sun how and why the politics of campaigning the coveted golden statuettes played against both women this Oscars season.
“You have to deal with the simple fact that when a movie makes a billion-plus dollars, people get jealous, even if those people themselves are rich, famous and good-looking movie stars,” the source said.
“Margot and Greta had a good number of high-profile supporters, including Gal Gadot and Anne Hathaway, but the absentees are glaring especially when you think about the sheer number of big names they’ve both worked with over the years.
“There wasn’t as deep a bench in support as there may have seemed when the movie was selling so many tickets over the summer.
“I think what you saw this year were a lot of past Oscar-winning actresses just ignore Barbie completely.
“Margot and Greta are paying a price here with their suddenly dominant status in the industry.
“That can put a target on the back of your head, especially if important people feel left out.”
