Having a famous father can be both a help and a hindrance when it comes to making a name for yourself. But Lily Collins, daughter of Genesis singer Phil, is finding her star firmly on the rise and has spoken out about finding her own feet in the limelight. The 22-year-old graced the cover of Seventeens March issue and talked about being part of a famous family.

Not Guilty!!!
Haven’t heard her speak a word, but I’ll guess by her dress that she’s not a ditz.
Has Class!
Rock Stars have their pick of very good looking women with which to mate. She probably looks more like Mom!
Thank God she is not bald like her father!
Yea, but can she play drums?
Why would she? Her father couldn't play them (or sing) either...
She’s not bad, her mom is even hotter.
No doubt!
Go listen to some early Genesis live bootlegs and tell me Phil couldn't drum.
*ouch*
“daughter of Genesis singer Phil, is finding her star firmly on the rise and has spoken out about finding her own feet in the limelight”
Then why didn;t she drop Collins’ at the end? Nicolas Cage’s last name is Coppola of Francis Coppola fame and he didn’t even use it.
A bit of useless trivia: In the Beatle’s film Hard Day’s Night, a young Phil Collins was a paid extra. He was part of the screaing fans scenes.
They still do - just not in places you want to look at.
Actually, her mother is Jill Tavelman. Phil's wife number 2. Cevey is number 3.
Try the first three Brand X albums. Sorry, but on the drums, Phil was a (diminutive) monster!
Probably his best drumming album was “Selling England by the Pound”. There wasn’t a time signature he couldn’t handle, i.e. “Apocalypse in 9/8” on Supper’s Ready.
Oops. Thanks for the correction. Looking at pictures of Jill and Lilly, there is a huge resemblance.
Third wife still hotter.
Listen to Keith Moon if you want to hear some awesome playing. There are parts of Quadrophenia where he is simply amazing during the instrumentals, same thing on Tommy. Unfortunately, the same things that made him a great drummer also contributed to his (same thing with John Bonham) untimely death. His stint as Wicked Uncle Ernie in Tommy is probably more real than acting if you've seen The Kids Are Alright.
Keith Moon starts around 4:00 minutes.
I could be wrong though since I haven't listened to either in years but I did see the movie Tommy recently and I was amazed at how incredibly bad it was although Ann Margret is still hot in it.
