Over the weekend, audiences got their first glimpse at what a kick-butt Clary Fray could look like as Lily Collins' vampire action flick "Priest" hit the big screen. And if you liked what you saw, you're in luck because Lily will re-team with "Priest" director Scott Stewart for the film adaptation of Cassandra Clare's "Mortal Instruments" novel "City of Bones," in which she will play a demon-slaying Shadowhunter.
We here at Hollywood Crush have never been shy about our love for strong female heroines, which is why this week, Lily Collins earns our Girl Crush title.
"I'm this week's Girl Crush?" she asked enthusiastically. "Oh my gosh. Wow. Thank you. That is a huge honor. I'm just, like, honored to be in an MTV building being interviewed. Wow. Thank you."
Of course, as we do with each of our honorees, we had to ask who Lily would pick as her Girl Crush. And she had several. "I love Anne Hathaway, Natalie Portman, Kate Winslet and Sandra [Bullock]," she said. "I feel so lucky to be able to work with Sandra because she is one of my favorites. I love everything from their sense of style to their choices in films."
As to what makes a Girl Crush, Lily had a few specific criteria. "A Girl Crush is someone, maybe, that exudes confidence in themself or the fact that they're just passionate about what they do and they just want to share their passion with everyone else."
We couldn't have said it better.
