Maybe you think you’re too young or you think something major couldn’t possibly happen to a regular person like you. Stop the negative[消极的] talk， because Lily Collins is proof that you can make your dreams come true―now！ Before Lily starred in movies like Abduction and Mirror Mirror， she was already a super-successful reporter.
