Be careful what you wish for!
For Margot Robbie‘s transformation into a Bay Ridge model-turned-trophy wife in The Wolf of Wall Street with Leonardo DiCaprio, the Australian actress knew that one style choice was a must. “The first thing I said was that my character needs acrylic nails all the time because that changes everything,” Robbie, 23, told website Violet Grey in a new interview.
However, those super-long acrylic nails proved a hindrance during certain scenes. “Well I couldn’t do anything the way I wanted to: I couldn’t wipe tears the way I would, I couldn’t brush my hair the way I would,” she revealed. “It was a massive pain in the ass to have them on for six months. I really hated them so, so much but it seriously created the character.”

To make sure her nails were on-point, Robbie had a weekly manicure session. “I was getting them done once a week,” she says. “On Sunday night, I’d get my nails and my spray tan, after I finished watching football.”
