By 2020, Collins landed her most-talked-about role to date as the title character in Netflix’s Emily in Paris. Of course, all that talk must mean that Lily Collins’ net worth is also worth some discussion. So, without any further ado, let’s get into how much Collins makes from Emily in Paris and more.

What is Lily Collins’ net worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth , Lily Collins’ net worth is $25 million as of 2024. All in all, Collins has earned this impressive net worth thanks to her many film and television roles throughout the years. Obviously, it pays to be in the biz from an early age!

In an interview with Vogue France in 2022, Collins opened up about being the daughter of singer Phil Collins , and why she wanted to make a name for herself without her family. “It was out of the question that people would think that I use a free pass thanks to my name,” she said. “I’m proud of my dad, but I wanted to be me, not just his daughter. For that, I was ready to wait to break through. By dint of failed castings, I learned to focus more on my work, and I managed to make acting my job. But I’m not resting on my laurels: this environment is very competitive and places are expensive.”

Collins also revealed that, while she “loves to sing,” she didn’t want to pursue a music career like her father. “I love to sing. But as I wanted to make my own way, far from the paternal genius, I preferred to be an actress,” she said. “I played in a few musicals because it’s the only setting in which I allow myself to sing. Frankly, I would be too afraid of comparisons!”

In her 2017 book, Unfiltered: No Shame, No Regrets, Just Me , Collins wrote a letter to her father “not being the dad [she] expected.” She wrote, “I forgive you for not always being there when I needed and for not being the dad I expected. I forgive the mistakes you made. And although it may seem like it’s too late, it’s not. There’s still so much time to move forward.” She also wrote

She also wrote about how she learned to “accept” her father as the parent he is. “We all make choices and, although I don’t excuse some of yours, at the end of the day we can’t rewrite the past,” she wrote. “I’m learning how to accept your actions and vocalize how they made me feel. I accept and honor the sadness and anger I felt toward the things you did or didn’t do, did or didn’t give me.”

What is Lily Collins’ Emily in Paris salary?

While Netflix has yet to publicly reveal Collins’ Emily in Paris salary, Cosmopolitan estimates that the star earns around $300,000 per episode of Emily in Paris . At 10 episodes per season, Collins’ Emily’s salary in Paris is around $3 million. Not too shabby for a show that has fans torn!

Netflix’s Emily in Paris premiered on the streaming service in October 2020. The series—which stars Collins as a 20-something American who moves to Paris for a job opportunity despite not speaking a lick of French—became a quick hit on the streaming platform. However, if you ask some viewers, it wasn’t always for the right reasons. Many critics of the show took issue with the way that Emily in Paris proliferated stereotypes and cliches about Paris and its residents, along with the highly privileged lifestyle that it seemingly promoted.
