Lily Collins, who claimed to be a "massive" fan of the Spice Girls, once stated that she would lip-sync the rap portion of "Wannabe" whenever and anywhere she wanted to.
Therefore, when the lead actress from "Emily in Paris" appeared on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” on September 17, the host accepted her challenge and played the song that has become synonymous with the film.
The words spoken by Mel B were perfectly matched by Lily, who rose up and danced. On the popular Netflix series that Lily is starring in, it was something that her courageous alter ego, Emily Cooper, might accomplish. On the other hand, the actress thought that the gesture was a little bit out of character for her.
"Lily is quite shy, not as bubbly or outgoing as her character," a source told Life & Style Magazine. "She says that people don't realize that she's a total homebody in real life!"
Lily, who is now 35 years old, is not exactly a Hollywood party girl, despite the fact that she began her acting career at the age of two on the BBC comedy-drama “Growing Pains."
"I love watching reality TV shows because they help me unwind and relax," according to her statement "I love ‘Top Chef,' ‘Real Housewives’ and ‘Project Runway.'"
The fact that Lily Collins, who is now 73 years old, was raised by her famous father, Phil Collins, is a significant contributor to the fact that she has chosen to avoid the spotlight.
"I remember being a kid at Disneyland with my dad and having someone come up and ask him for a photo," the anonymous insider stated. "There is a method to keep a balance, and while it is not always simple to do so... As a child, I was able to observe, learn, and develop as a result of what I witnessed.”
Fortunately, she has found a companion who is understanding in Charlie McDowell, who is 41 years old. The writer-director is the stepson of Ted Danson, who is 76 years old, as well as the son of actors Malcolm McDowell, who is 81 years old, and Mary Steen-burgen, who is 71 years old.
"Lily and Charlie grew up in show business, but you'd never know it by their personalities," the undisclosed informant shared. "They're both super lowkey and down to earth."
"I knew the moment I met him that I wanted to be his wife one day," Lily said after meeting him on the set of his film Gilded Rage. "It was then that I knew I wanted to be his wife..." Really, it was only a matter of when it would happen."
That particular year turned out to be 2021, and the two of them couldn't be happier about it. They have found happiness in Copenhagen, where they purchased property in recent years, according to The Copenhagen Post.
"They love to cook, love to travel and hike, and love to be outdoors as much as possible," it went on. "It's turned into a second home for me. They are in awe of the people, the surroundings, the cuisine, and everything else about it."
Additionally, the couple spends time with their family. The mole said that Charlie has a strong bond with both his parents and his siblings. "They vacation together every summer, and Lily is ler, close to them all, too," it added.
On the other hand, Lily is always a happy youngster to return to the set of "Emily in Paris," which has been extended for a Season 5, The Hollywood Reporter shared.
"With the growth of Emily, there's come a real growth in myself... as a producer," Lily disclosed to the Associated Press. "I've grown more confident as Emily but also with Lily."
