“The Wolf of Wall Street,” directed by Martin Scorsese and released in 2013, was a turning point in Margot Robbie‘s career, propelling her into the Hollywood spotlight.
The film starred Leonardo DiCaprio as former stockbroker Jordan Belfort and Robbie as his wife, Naomi Lapaglia. The two actors engaged in several explicit s*x scenes, one of which proved to be quite embarrassing for Robbie, as she shared during an interview with The Talk in 2015.
Leonardo DiCaprio’s e-cigarette was in Margot Robbie B*tt crack
We’d just finished this scene, and Leo always carries an e-cigarette with him, like all the time. So he hid it under a pillow while we were shooting. Afterward, he’s like, ‘Where is it? Where did I put it? I had it right here.’
I was looking around with him – both still sitting in this bed – and then I went, ‘Oh, um, it’s literally, like, in my b*tt crack. I’m sitting on it. I am so sorry. He probably threw it away. It was so embarrassing. Margot Robbie jokingly added: “S*x scenes are super sexy.”
Martin Scorsese requested Margot Robbie to wear a robe

If they’ve put it in just so that a girl gets her top off, then that’s disgusting. But I also think it’s disgusting when someone would have got naked in real life, but in the film, they conveniently leave their bra on or hold up the bed sheet.
Filming those Intimate scenes with DiCaprio was embarrassing for Margot Robbie
In 2016, Robbie discussed the intimate scenes in “The Wolf of Wall Street,” noting that it was her first experience filming a sex scene “from beginning to end” and confessed that she found the experience to be “embarrassing.”
I’d done scenes, where it’s leading into sex or sex, has just finished. But I hadn’t done a start-to-finish sex scene like I did in Wolf Of Wall Street. That was my first. Tons of people are watching you. It’s so awkward. It’s just like, this is what you need to do – get on with it. The sooner you do it, the sooner you can stop doing it.
Recently, during a Bafta event, Margot Robbie told how she drank tequila before filming some rather naughty scenes of The Wolf of Wall Street. “I’m not going to lie; I had a couple of shots of tequila before that scene because I was nervous…very, very nervous,
