SCANDALOUS SPORTING SENSATION! Margot Robbie's Rugby League Revelation Exposed!

Get ready for a footy-filled frenzy as we dive into the sultry world of Aussie actress Margot Robbie, who's just revealed her secret rugby league obsession in a resurfaced clip that's got everyone talking!

The 34-year-old Barbie star, who was only 18 at the time, rocked up to a State of Origin game in 2009 donning a Queensland Maroons jersey alongside her Neighbours co-star Ashleigh Brewer. But little did we know, this wasn't just a casual outing – it was all part of a Nivea campaign called 'Margot's World', where she followed the first game of the 2009 series.

But here's the juiciest bit: Margot confessed on camera that she was FURIOUS she never got to play rugby at school because they wouldn't let girls participate! "I was never allowed to play rugby as an actual official team sport because they wouldn't let girls play, which is something that frustrated me," she spilled.

We can only imagine the drama that unfolded when Margot begged her football coach to let her join in on the action. But alas, he shut her down with a firm "No, girls couldn't play". Talk about a missed opportunity!

Undeterred, Margot turned to touch football and unofficially played with friends – because what's an Aussie girl without a bit of footy flair? "I did play touch football, and unofficially with friends we would always kick the footy," she revealed.

Fast-forward to game night, where Margot was ready to cheer on her team from the sidelines. Wearing a Queensland Maroons jersey, 2000s-esque skinny jeans, and brown ankle boots, this Hollywood A-lister was determined to show off her team spirit! "Jeans – pretty standard at the footy, comfy shoes a must-have," she gushed.

But the real kicker? Margot's infectious enthusiasm! As she entered the stadium, she let out a passionate rendition of the iconic Queenslander chant, sending the crowd into raptures!

In other news, Margot recently attended the wedding of fellow Aussie actress Phoebe Tonkin – and we've got all the deets! The H20: Just Add Water alum tied the knot with fiancé Bernard Lagrange in a chic New York ceremony surrounded by an A-list gathering of stars.
