Lily Collins is walking back the comments she made about her character Emily’s age in the new Netflix series Emily in Paris.
The 31-year-old actress, who was 30 when the show was being filmed last year, said in a new interview that her character was never given a specific number for her age. “I believe that she’s pretty fresh out of college,” Lily told British Vogue. “Maybe this is her first year after graduation.
I want to say she’s like, 22-ish.” The comments went viral after fans couldn’t believe that Emily was actually that young, considering that she has a pretty high-profile job. Lily took to social media on Friday (October 16) and shared a GIF of her character Emily giving some side-eye shade.
