“We got this much older lady in and I was just not happy about it, and she told me to go have a bath and I didn’t want to and she was very cranky and I thought, ‘I’m going to show you’. ”

“So I got a big kitchen knife and the ketchup and I sprawled out naked on the tiles, covered myself in ketchup, put the kitchen knife, and I waited like 45 minutes for her to find me,” she added.
“But it was worth the wait,” the actress said.
“Did she run screaming from the house?” interviewer Zoe Ball asked.
“Oh yeah!” she replied.
“You produced your own death,” Ryan Gosling joked to which Margot smiling said, “Yes I did.”
The actress has been on a massive promotion tour this whole to hype up her new movie ‘Barbie’ which hit theatres on July 21. As such, she along with her co-stars and director Greta Gerwig went all out in promotions.
