Lily Collins is a British-American actress and model, born on March 18, 1989, in Guildford, Surrey, England. She is the daughter of English musician Phil Collins and his second wife, Jill Tavelman. Collins moved to the United States as a child and grew up in Los Angeles.
She began acting at a young age, with her first on-screen role being in the BBC series "Growing Pains" when she was two years old. However, Collins' breakthrough came in journalism and writing. As a teenager, she wrote a column for the British magazine "Elle Girl" and also contributed to "Seventeen" magazine, "Teen Vogue," and the "Los Angeles Times."
Collins' return to acting was marked by a series of film roles. She made her feature film debut in the 2009 film "The Blind Side," where she played Collins Tuohy, the daughter of Leigh Anne Tuohy, portrayed by Sandra Bullock. Her performance in this film helped her gain wider recognition.
Lily Collins' career took a significant turn with her lead role in "Mirror Mirror" (2012), where she played Snow White alongside Julia Roberts. This role established her as a prominent actress in Hollywood. She continued to star in various films, including "The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones" (2013), where she played the lead role of Clary Fray, and "Love, Rosie" (2014), a romantic comedy-drama.
Apart from her acting career, Collins is known for her work in modeling and has been recognized for her unique style, often appearing on best-dressed lists.
Collins' personal life, particularly her relationship with her father, has been a subject of media interest. She has spoken openly about the challenges of growing up with a famous parent and their sometimes strained relationship.
As of my last update in April 2023, Lily Collins continues to be an influential figure in the entertainment industry, known for her versatile acting skills and contributions to fashion and journalism. She has also been vocal about issues such as body image and self-confidence, using her platform to inspire and empower young women.
