Margot Robbie has recently been in the spotlight for her maniacal role as Harley Quinn in David Ayer's "Suicide Squad" (2017). She is being dubbed a rising star -- a celebrity to watch. But there are still a lot of things no one knows about the budding actress.

1. Before her Hollywood break, she worked at a Subway as a sandwich artist.

2. Robbie refused to lose weight for her role as Jane in "The Legend of Tarzan" (2016).

She said she would rather focus on being healthy, than skinny.

3. She is a natural brunette.

She dyed her hair blonde when it became obvious that Hollywood preferred blonde actresses.

4. Robbie was backpacking on the island of Croatia when she got the callback for "Focus" (2015).

She managed to arrive on time, although Will Smith was late, claiming he was traveling from Queens. When Smith told Robbie the reason for his lateness, Robbie said to him, "Yeah? Well I just came from an island off Croatia and I'm here on time." Robbie believes this interaction won her the role.

5. Robbie went to clown school when she was eight, learning proficiency in trapeze work.

This skill came in good use for her role as Harley Quinn in "Suicide Squad."

6. She downed three shots of tequila before her first sex scene with Dicaprio in "Wolf of Wall Street" (2013) because she was so nervous.

She was also supposed to appear in a robe, but decided to go nude because she felt it was more true to her character.

7. She opened Harley's tattoo parlor while filming for "Suicide Squad."

She tattooed "SKWAD" on several cast members, members of the crew and director David Ayer with a tattoo gun she purchased from eBay.

By reading this, you have probably reached the same conclusion as myself: Margot Robbie is basically awesome. Not only is she beautiful, she is extremely talented in more ways than one. I can't wait to see what she does next.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
