Margot Robbie Shows Solidarity with Writers Guild - eviltoast

Margot Robbie proved she can make even the most casual look runway-ready as she took to the streets during Wednesday’s SAG-AFTRA rally. The Barbie star, 33, was a vision in an oversized white tee, putting her own stylish spin on the protest uniform. With her signature blonde locks flowing freely and chic sunnies shielding her eyes, Margot commanded attention as she proudly held her poster high during the march from Netflix to Paramount Studios.

    I had it put into perspective by a friend who has been impacted by streaming (lack of) residuals. They were seeing something like 98% reduction in income from a project, despite wider reach. Absolutely crazy how much you folks are being robbed. And that’s before use of AI/ML to try to replace people with plagiarized pieces of past works.
