Lily Collins Startling Lifestyle Confession

Written by Kelly Bandas on February 25, 2012 – 12:03 pm -

In an unprecedented Hollywood event, 22-year-old actress Lily Collins recently announced that she “… never did do the whole drinking, drugs [thing]…That wasn’t ever me and is never gonna be me.”

What?  A second generation A-list celeb (her father is pop musician Phil Colins) who isn’t interested in the L.A. party scene?  That’s unheard of – even for a Brit!

Of course we kid.  We’re sure there are plenty of celebrities out there who are just like Lily, but she’s so freaking cool that we couldn’t pass this story up!

Allen, who will star in this year’s other Snow White-themed movie, Mirror Mirror, opposite Julia Roberts, is also the cover girl for this month’s issue of Nylon Magazine and in an exclusive interview with the mag, she opens up about life growing up in the English countryside and steering clear of drugs and alcohol.

Growing up in the English countryside, I would go out into the fields and create my own stories, and I would run around as if I was in a movie… That’s why for me, playing Snow White was a crazy dream come true, because I’ve always been someone who would read books and then go and make a movie in my head.

I have no idea what will happen after Mirror Mirror but I love that I can still do what I want to do on a weekend, like go to the flea market. I don’t ever want that to stop… I won’t want to suddenly have to sacrifice parts of myself, and I don’t feel like I am, knowing that people are going to be more interested in my personal life. I never did go out and party! I never did do the whole drinking, drugs…That wasn’t ever me and is never gonna be me.

Love this gal and know we’re going to see many more wonderful things from her in the future – I can feel it coming in the air tonight…

Lily Collins Is A Picture Perfect Snow White

Written by Violet on July 27, 2011 – 11:11 pm -

A princess in a fancy dress with an innocent look, Lily Collins as Snow White is a light and sunny heroine with perfect porcelain skin and not a hair out of place.

Relativity media released this photo of Collins for the March 2012 release film The Brothers Grimm: Snow White.

Costarring Julia Roberts, Sean Bean, Nathan Lane and Armie Hammer, this adaptation of the tale looks fluffy but is supposed to have a darker side.

From the director of The Cell and The Immortals, Tarsem Singh will certainly bring a distinct visual to the project.

Lily Collins Gushes About “Abduction” BF Taylor Lautner

Written by Gossip Gal on May 22, 2011 – 6:21 am -

Abduction” co-stars, Lily Collins and Taylor Lautner, who are rumored to be secretly (or not so secretly!) dating, have only good things to say about each other for now. Last month, Taylor said Lily was simply awesome, so it’s Lily’s turn to praise his impeccable acting skills.

“[He is] very Jason Bourne-esque, of course with his own twist on it,” Lily explained of Taylor’s character in the film. “It’s a complete departure from Jacob. Obviously I’m in the movie so I’m biased, but I think it’s going to completely shock his fans, and people that necessarily don’t know him very well as Jacob that aren’t ‘Twilight’ fans. I think he brings an aspect people haven’t seen yet and [it's] very, very exciting.”

WATCH Abduction Trailer HERE. The 22 year-old actress explains why their characters have this sort of complicated relationship that starts as something platonic and develops as they both have to face new and difficult challenges.

“There is romance, but it’s also [we're] partners-in-crime, we’re going through everything together.”

“We’ve got some awkward past that is alluded to, and we tend to avoid each other in high school,” she explained. “There’s always been something [there] but we tend to avoid each other. We’re thrown together for a school project and because I’m associated with him through that project, I then have to go on the run with him when everything starts to happen.”

When asked the important question “how often we get to see Taylor shirtless”, Lily reveals: “That is very minimal,” she said with a laugh. “It’s not about him taking his shirt off, this movie. There’s a lot more that I think makes up for that. That’s not to say that there’s not some steamy moments in the movie”.

Boo! No teasing, just give us Taylor shirtless and will go see the movie. Are you interested in watching “Abduction”? Is the new action-hero Taylor hotter than the teen-werewolf-shirtless Taylor?

Taylor Lautner On Girlfriend Lily Collins: “She’s Awesome!”

Written by Gossip Gal on April 16, 2011 – 5:17 am -

Twilight hunk Taylor Lautner is completely smitten with his rumored girlfriend/Abduction co-star, actress Lily Collins. The two partners in crime were seen out on a couple of dates recently, but they apparently refuse to confirm the romance rumors.

That doesn’t stop Taylor from saying Lily is incredibly sweet, talented and awesome. It’s LOVE. How sweet… Taylor also revealed they had incredible chemistry on the set of the movie, which hopefully translates to the big screen.

Taylor said, “I didn’t know her very well. I had met her a couple [of] times, but she blew me away. She was awesome. She’s extremely talented. Whenever [my character] Nathan crumbles, she has to always be there to support him. And she was.”

On romance scenes: “I mean, I think it depends. It depends on the person and your vibe together, ’cause sometimes it can totally be awkward. But if you’re in the moment and you are literally living these characters, you forget about everything else, then it’s fine. It was totally fine.”

OH. Taylor and Lily definitely make a super cute and fun couple. And they definitely make a perfect on-screen couple. Check out Lily and Taylor’s movie “Abduction” trailer HERE.
