Margot Robbie has revealed that the worst gift she ever received – and wow, it’s bad.
The Aussie star revealed that very early into her career, she was given a book about “how to lose weight” by a fellow actor.
The 35-year-old explained how she got the awful gift in an interview with musician Charli XCX for Complex.
“Very, very early in my career, an actor I worked with, a male actor, gave me a book called Why French Women Don’t Get Fat, and it was essentially a book telling you to eat less,” she said in the interview for Complex.
The book, written by Mireille Guiliano, was published in 2007.
Robbie said her reaction was a blunt ”Whoa, f–k you, dude.”
The Wuthering Heights lead did not name the actor, but added it was “really back in the day,” before saying she had “no idea where he would even be now.”

Charli XCX chimed, saying, “Your career’s over, babe.”
“He essentially gave me a book to let me know that I should lose weight,” Robbie continued.
“I was like, ‘Wow.'”

Charli XCX added that she was once given ”a small jar of one of my fan’s mother’s ashes.”
“It was a jar on a necklace. I just didn’t quite know what to do with it … I don’t know where it is now.”
“Wow, that’s intense,” Robbie replied.
Robbie first started acting in Australian television on the show Neighbours, getting her breakout role in Hollywood in The Wolf of Wall Street, which led to her roles in I, Tonya and Bombshell, which landed her an Oscar nomination.
Now, she is leading the film adaptation of Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights, while Charli is creating original music for the film.
Fellow Aussie Jacob Eldordi is playing across from Robbie as the mysterious and moody Heathcliff.
