SUPERSTAR BARBIE! FROM HUMBLE BEGINNINGS TO MULTIMILLION-DOLLAR PAYCHECKS, MARGOT ROBBIE IS LIVING HER DREAM.
Hollywood's GOLDEN Girl

MARGOT ROBBIE is having a moment. Barbie, which she stars in and produced, has raked in $1 billion and counting at the box office, making the 33-year-old beauty — who’s set to take home $50 million in salary and bonuses — the highestpaid actress in Hollywood. And there’s already talk of a sequel. “The success of Barbie has solidified Margot’s A-list status,” an insider tells Star. “She’s the biggest star on the planet.”

She’s come a long way since her days of working odd jobs and taking bit parts in her native Australia before moving to Los Angeles at 20. But according to the insider, Margot’s newfound fortune and fame hasn’t gone to her head. “She’s never been one to seek out attention,” says the insider, noting that Margot and her assistant director husband of six years, Tom Ackerley, also 33, prefer to remain under the radar. “Tom’s also very understated and humble. They’re still the same down-to earth people they’ve always been.”
