She currently stars in one of the most popular shows on Netflix.
However, Lily Collins has stated that she was rejected for many roles at the beginning of her acting career. Being Phil Collins' daughter - this could have been one way for her to get jobs - but she was not able to.
Was her father the reason?
The 33-year-old actress appeared on the cover of V magazine and told the publication, "I definitely got rejected a lot at the beginning. I got told "no" over and over and over again. The feedback was that I was too green. I was like, I don't know what that means."
"Like, green as in "go"? But really I needed a little more maturing, practice, and experience. I guess, for me, it was always really important to not take [rejection] as, "No, this isn't going to be for you." It was just, "No, not right now."
In the accompanying glamorous photoshoot, Lily wore a variety of fashion-forward looks and looked absolutely stunning.

She donned an elegant black fishtail dress and posed with her hands on her hips while wearing a large hat.
Her dark hair was slicked back, and she wore a full face of makeup to accentuate her beautiful features.
It comes after Lily discussed the contrast between the classic sitcom "Sex and the City" and her own Netflix series "Emily in Paris", stating that her leading role in the latter is "more modern."
This week, the actress, who is the daughter of singer Phil Collins, explained that the Netflix series is not a typical romantic comedy, as Emily is more focused on her career, friends, travel, and education.
In Sarah Jessica Parker's "Sex and the City", Carrie Bradshaw and her friends are frequently on the lookout for romantic partners.
Lily explained that the rom-com structure of "Emily in Paris" incorporates a number of additional storylines in addition to the romance.
Early on, she was already asked about how she felt about being Phil Collins' daughter and she shared how she was actually apprehensive to use her last name initially because she might be accused of riding on her parents' fame. She eventually realized that this is not going to happen as long as she knows she works hard.
At present, Phil Collins reportedly has retired already because of his declining health. Not that his fans have vanished overnight.
Although Phil Collins has been out of the spotlight since announcing his retirement, he is continuously dominating the internet. Collins gave fans heartbreaking news during Genesis' O2 Arena performance. As he announced his retirement, the drummer, who had been seated during his final performances with the band, stood up and walked off the stage with his bandmates.
The musician's health issues, which occurred months ago, resurfaced in the news, propelling them to the forefront of trending topics. Multiple news outlets shared the previous update on Collins' inability to hold a drumstick on Facebook.
Because of his health problems, he decided to leave his position and "find a real job." After sustaining a spinal injury, he previously stated on BBC Breakfast that he could barely hold a stick. He explained that his drumming position was causing his vertebrae to compress his spinal cord.
