Margot Robbie's sky-rocketing fame has made her the target of an American comedian, who has relentlessly teased the Aussie actress in a YouTube comedy skit.

The five-minute video, titled 'Escape Margot Robbie's Moment!', was made by Billy On the Street host Billy Eichner and pokes fun at the Aussie star's success.

Actress and comedian Rachel Dratch is shown being put through an obstacle course that re-creates Margot's movie roles and talk show appearances in 2016.

Slippery slope: Actress Rachel Dratch poked fun at Margot in video titled 'Escape Margot Robbie's Moment!' made by 'Billy On the Street' host Billy Eichner

Wearing a red jumpsuit and helmet, Rachel is first seen 'firing her Australian management' by blasting three mannequins with a fire hose.

Next, the 30 Rock star races through a mock TV studio, dodging a gyrating extra in an Ellen DeGeneres mask.

As the challenge continues, the 50-year-old pours a keg of beer over an actor in a Jimmy Fallon mask and is asked to tell a funny anecdote.

The most amusing moment in the skit comes when Billy Eichner forces the actress into a bathtub and asks her to recreate Margot's infamous cameo in The Big Short.

Talk show circuit: The skit lampooned the Aussie actress' appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

'Talk about people losing their homes, but sexy!' he cries to which Rachel answers, 'Oh, the banks ! Ooh, banks ...' in a lusty tone.

Rachel then races to another mock studio scene and is covered in netting as Billy predicts Margot will be embroiled in an online controversy before the year ends.

The video ends with Rachel sliding down a cardboard cut-out of Margot's IMDB page and finally winning the challenge by fighting off 'rival' actress Hailee Steinfeld.

To make the whole joke more surreal the confused actress is rewarded with a pair of earrings made in the shape of the Google Chrome search engine logo.

Bath time: Rachel awkwardly recreated Margot's infamous scene in The Big Short

Bubbles and bubbly: The scene may have been mocked in the comedy skit but the former Home and Away star's cameo in The Big Short was a highlight in the film

The former Home and Away star is one of Australia's most dazzling exports but that's clearly made her a target for some good-natured, albeit cutting gags.

No doubt the 26-year old Gold Coast native will take the skit in her stride.

She's got her next six film roles lined up and her 'moment' wont be over any time soon.
