Lily-Rose Depp, the talented daughter of Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis, is no stranger to scrutiny about her privileged background. However, the 25-year-old actress has made it clear she’s focused on proving herself through hard work and passion.
In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Lily-Rose opened up about facing criticism tied to her famous lineage. “I love acting,” she shared. “If people still want to talk s*** or see me in a certain way, that’s not my problem. I’ve had to grow into that mindset as well.”
Acknowledging the influence of her parents, the Nosferatu star expressed deep respect for their artistry. “They are incredible artists, and I’ve grown up with that,” she said. “Respecting them so much and what they do, while trying to find my own identity in this world, has been interesting—especially when people think you’re here for the wrong reasons or don’t deserve to be.”
Lily-Rose emphasized the importance of perseverance in the face of criticism. “You can either sit there and cry about it, saying, ‘This isn’t fair!’ or you can choose to work really hard and do your best.”
The actress’s perspective reflects a maturity and determination to rise above negativity. With notable projects under her belt and more on the horizon, Lily-Rose is carving out her own path in the entertainment industry, proving she’s more than just a product of her famous parents.
As she continues to shine on screen, fans and critics alike are witnessing her dedication to her craft—and her ability to handle the pressure with poise.
