Golden Globes 2024: Margot Robbie channels 1977 Superstar Barbie in sequin H๏τ pink Armani dress and matching tulle boa wrap
Margot Robbie channeled Barbie once again as she arrived to the star-studded Golden Globes 2024 red carpet, held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Sunday.
The Australian beauty, 33, donned a plunging sequin H๏τ pink Giorgio Armani dress from the brand’s Fall/Winter 2022 collection.
The floor-length gown featured a plunging v-neckline and the actress paired the ensemble with a matching tulle boa wrap.
As she did throughout the film’s press tour, Margot took inspiration from the iconic Mattel doll, with her gown recreating the 1977 SuperStar Barbie doll.
Robbie is nominated tonight for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy for her lead role in Barbie. In her hand Margot held a matching pink clutch. The actress wore her blonde tresses parted in the middle and cascading down in gentle waves.
She added major bling to the ensemble, wearing over $3M of Lorraine Schwartz Jewelry. The blonde bombshell accessorized with 30 carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond studs, and a 3 carat D Flawless diamond ring.
As for glam, she looked picture-perfect with delicate bronze eyeshadow and pink lipstick. While on the red carpet she was joined by her husband Tom Ackerley, 33, who looked dashing in an all-black tuxedo.
As one of Barbie’s producers, Margot will also win the prize if the movie wins Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy (alongside her husband and fellow producers David Heyman, and Robbie Brenner).
The movie has picked up a total of nine award nominations at the 2024 ceremony. The film has grossed $1.4 billion at the worldwide box office and became the top grossing film of 2023 and the highest-grossing film in Warner Bros.’ history.
While on the red carpet she discussed the film’s success. ‘It’s more about what that number represents,’ she said about its box office success, as per Variety.
‘When we would go to the theater on opening weekend and seeing this sea of people wearing pink or dressed up as Ken, it was such a wild feeling and I haven’t seen this communal kind of experience since I was a kid.’
Robbie also weighed in on Lady Gaga playing Harley Quinn in the upcoming Joker: Folie à Deux, after Robbie played the iconic character in Suicide Squad and Birds of Prey.
The star revealed that she has not spoken to Gaga yet.
‘She’s going to crush it! She’s going to be amazing. I actually haven’t spoken to her about it. I almost don’t want to know so I can save it for a surprise when I see the movie.’
The 81st Golden Globe Awards honors the best in film and American television of 2023 – with the glittering ceremony held at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California. The most H๏τly anticipated movies of the past year – Barbie and Oppenheimer – lead the nominations.
Barbie’s nine nominations were closely followed by its ‘Barbenheimer’ release date companion Oppenheimer, which scored eight nominations, including best picture drama and for actors Cillian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr. and Emily Blunt.
The movie’s respective directors Greta Gerwig and Christopher Nolan are both up for best director and best screenplay for a motion picture. Ryan Gosling is up for best supporting male actor, while Margot has been nominated for best female actor for her performance as Barbie.
The 81st Golden Globe Awards will be the first major broadcast of awards season, with a new home on CBS and will be hosted by 52-year-old comedian Jo Koy.
And while to audiences it might look similar on the surface, it’s been tumultuous few years behind the scenes following a bombshell report in the Los Angeles Times.
The 2021 report found that there were no black members in the Hollywood Foreign Press Association – which votes on the awards.
Stars and studios boycotted the Globes and NBC refused to air it in 2022 as a result.
