I was very lucky that my first film, ‘The Blind Side,’ I worked with Sandra Bullock. Lily Collins Read Quote
I’m very British at heart. When I come to England, I say I’m coming home, and then it’s funny: when I leave England to go back to L.A., I also say I’m going back home. Lily Collins Read Quote
I’ve always been a huge admirer and lover of Alexander McQueen, Alexander Wang. I love so many British designers like Stella McCartney. Lily Collins Read Quote
Every movie that I’m in is very different in terms of aesthetic and costume. I mean, from ‘Mirror, Mirror’ to ‘Mortal Instruments,’ I went from dressy dresses to leather and heels and tight, sexy, chic outfits. Lily Collins Read Quote
Every day, there is a person following me, taking pictures. It’s bizarre because I’m just going to the gym or getting a smoothie. I don’t have the time or energy to be constantly put together all the time, but that’s real life. Lily Collins Read Quote
Don’t let the American twang fool you. I still say, ‘I’m going home,’ when I come to England, and I love a good old cup of PG Tips with a Jaffa Cake. Lily Collins Read Quote
So much has changed since the ’70s and ’80s when it comes to acting and being in the public eye. We’d go out to a restaurant, and there would be five or six people. Now there’s a lot more, plus social media, and this desire to bring other people down. Lily Collins Read Quote
Not many people know my father was an actor. He was the Artful Dodger in ‘Oliver!,’ and was in a film called ‘Frauds,’ too. It’s interesting talking to him about acting, how much you can get turned down, and how not to take that as a discouragement. It’s nice to have that element to relate to for us both.
