Actress Margot Robbie has revealed that she was offered a job at Hooter when she was just 16 years old.
The Wolf of Wall Street star explained that when she was a teenager, she appeared in a adverts for the chain Hooters in Australia.
If you’ve ever heard of Hooters you will probably know that the restaurant is known for it scantily-clad employees.

However Margot didn’t appear in the advert as a member of staff she was in the background eating the food.
The 32-year-old recalled: “I was in a Hooters commercial, not as a Hooters girl but as someone eating at Hooters.”

She wasn’t paid for the job, but she was later offered the opportunity to make some money thanks to her appearance.
Speaking to NME, Robbie continued: “At the end of the day, they offered me a job and I was like, ‘I think this is where my career is going and I’m going to end up working at Hooters. That’s cool’.”
The waiting staff at Hooters restaurants are primarily young women, usually referred to simply as “Hooters Girls”, whose revealing outfits and sex appeal are played up and are a primary component of the company’s image.

Margot didn’t take the job as she had her sight set on Hollywood.
It was lucky she didn’t as she was cast in the Australian soap Neighbours when she was 17.
Since then she has appeared in some huge Hollywood movies including Wolf of Wall Street, Suicide Squad and Harley Quinn.

Her most recent performance comes in Damien Chazelle’s Babylon.
Margot stars alongside Brad Pitt as struggling actor Nellie LaRoy, who is determined to make it to the big time.
Her journey involves a lot of parties and a lot of cocaine, but, unlike Margot, it doesn’t involve any making adverts for Hooters.
