While the 23-year-old stunned on the red carpet in a black slashed mesh mini dress with thigh-high boots, there was no hiding the welts that appeared on her back and arms.

“She said, “This is terrible!” I thought I was hanging out with Ed. I was thinking “Ed’s a really cool guy”.

Forget the runway: Cara Delevingne is turning the streets of NY into the ultimate catwalk. “Because I grew up in this very “Emotion is weak, head up, move on, onward and upward” kind of way”.

Luckily, Delevingne’s Suicide Squad co-star helped her get comfortable tapping into certain emotions.

And the Australian beauty is thankful director David Ayer helped her and her castmates – who also include Will Smith, Jai Courtney, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, and Jared Leto – to bond as they are now “truly a squad”. “So, when it got to being a teenager and all the hormones and the pressure and wanting to do well at school – for my parents, not for me – I had a mental breakdown”.

“Will Smith [her “Suicide Squad” costar] was telling me he brought up his kids to put their emotions first, and when I heard that, I was just like, ‘Oh my God, that sounds like a fairy tale.’ Because emotions should be put first. It’s the most important thing”, said Delevingne before adding, “No, I’m not going to start crying”. She, however, cautioned against taking meds as though she believes it saved her, she also think it is easy to “abuse” them. “I’m eating burgers at lunchtime, and then you go do a scene where you’re hosed down and soaking wet in a white T-shirt, it’s so clingy and you’re self-conscious about it”. She recently opened up about her 33-year-old musician girlfriend, St. Vincent, in British Vogue.
