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…

    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.

      After checking your account I’m thoroughly confused. Either this is a novelty account that takes itself really, really seriously, or you’re the actual actress, but that just doesn’t compute.

        Reminds me of years ago I joined the Counter-Strike server and ended up playing against Seth Rogen. Like, it was actually the dude… There was just no way that you could fake that laugh. And then he started talking about doing the ads for the Vancouver Metro which was really strange…

        For a while I didn’t really believe it was him, but I added him as a friend anyway and later it turned out it was him so… That’s kind of funny.

      I came to this thread to see if you were here. ;-)

      Reminder that you can buy tshirts from union groups to help support their members. Some of them have kickass art designs. I have three, so far. Starbucks, Rail, and Trucks. UPS placard in the window, too.

      There hasn’t been a moment like this in our lifetimes (unless you are literally 100yo). This is super exciting. Support unions on strike. Whether that’s buying a shirt, honking your horn, displaying a placard, standing or marching with them, honking your horn, donating money or food or coffee or water, etc. There’s a power dynamic shift taking place. Let’s see it through!

      I had it put into perspective by a friend who has been impacted by streaming (lack of) residuals. They were seeing something like 98% reduction in income from a project, despite wider reach. Absolutely crazy how much you folks are being robbed. And that’s before use of AI/ML to try to replace people with plagiarized pieces of past works.

      I supported the strikes before but the understanding of the magnitude of impact that is already being felt is shocking and makes me support it doubly so. Keep rocking and fighting for your rights and those of your fellow workers!
