How did she get started in Hollywood?

Just wondering how she managed to get her foot in the door and break into the business. It's pretty hard to do so I am always interested to hear how people did it. How did she do it?

Her dad is Phil Collins (the singer) and her mom was formerly the president of the Beverly Hills Women's Club.

So she had connections everywhere.

Well she did hundreds of auditions while working two jobs as a bartender at night and a Starbucks barista during the day until one day she was discovered when she played a bit part on a big TV show.
