Margot Robbie is one of the biggest stars in the world. After her star-making debut in "The Wolf of Wall Street," she became a sensation, and now is the titular character of "Barbie." While she is an Oscar-nominated actress with dozens of great performances under her belt, fans seem to keep focusing on one thing: her feet. Robbie’s feet have been the object of internet fascination for quite a while, and now she’s opening up about how she feels of this strange obsession.

Robbie and her "Barbie" co-star Ryan Gosling sat down with CinemaBlend's very own Hannah Saulic during the Barbie press junket in Los Angeles to talk about their new film. The conversation turned to Robbie’s feet, when she was asked how she felt about the persistent interest online. The "I, Tonya" star opened up about the first time she realized this was a thing, and it happened the first time she googled herself.

00:14 I'm so sorry to ask you this, but this is a little silly.
00:17 Don't, you don't have to.
00:19 - I do. - You don't have to.
00:20 - I'm scared already. - We'll say you do.
00:22 Something I was not aware of until the trailer dropped
00:24 and we got the iconic shot of the arched foot
00:26 was that the people on the internet are really into your feet.
00:29 - Yes. - From Wolf of Wall Street
00:31 all the way through to obviously, it was one time Hollywood,
00:33 Suicide Squad, now Barbie.
00:35 I'm learning so much about you.
00:36 That you're like aware of and when you're filming these shots
00:39 are you like, "Oh, here's one that they're gonna take."
00:42 I'll tell you, the very first time I Googled myself,
00:46 you know how when you type something into Google
00:49 and it predicts what the rest of it's gonna be?
00:51 I was like, you know, I'd started working and I was on some things
00:54 and I hadn't Googled myself before and so I wrote in
00:57 Margot Robbie and before I finished writing Robbie,
01:00 Margot Robbie feet came up and I was like,
01:03 Margot Robbie feet, that's weird.
01:05 And I clicked on it and realised that there was, you know,
01:08 like pictures zoomed in on my feet and people writing about,
01:11 you know, and like someone had made a video compilation
01:14 of footage of my feet and I was like,
01:17 "Oh, wow, this is like a thing I didn't realise."
01:19 And then since then I've, you know, been lucky to be in some iconic films
01:24 but there's been some, you know, shots of my feet,
01:27 which I think has only encouraged this notion and I have to say
01:30 I'm really flattered that people are excited about my feet.
01:34 I think that's lovely.
01:36 I am, genuinely. I don't feel weird about it.
01:38 I am actually like, "Oh, that's nice."
01:40 - That's nice, yeah. - Yeah.
01:41 - Please don't look at my feet. - Demarco's feet.
01:43 - I haven't... Demarco's feet.
01:45 Thanks.
