Margot Robbie has transformed into an extraordinary actress and style icon.

But during her humble beginnings on local television, Robbie scored two Logies – Popular Female Talent in 2009 and Popular Actress in 2011.

And it seems Robbie enjoyed every minute at Australian TV's night of nights.

Speaking about the Logies while on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the Suicide Squad star lifted the lid on what really goes on at the awards.

"The Logies are the funnest award shows ever," she told the late-night host in 2019.

"I haven't been for a decade now. It's like the Wild West … They're just a big piss-up, everyone gets absolutely hammered."

She recalled passing out in one of the toilet stalls during her second Logies outing.

"I came out and it was such a weird, surreal experience because there was no one around … for a second in my drunken state, I was like, 'Did I die? Is this purgatory? Am I in between heaven and hell right now? This is so weird'."
