HOW BIG IS Lily-Rose Depp ON THE NET?
Lily-Rose is a digital icon with over 8.3 million followers on Instagram, despite being notoriously selective about what she posts. In 2026, she is one of the most talked-about actresses in Hollywood following her critically acclaimed performance as Ellen Hutter in the 2024 remake of Nosferatu. She is currently trending for her second collaboration with director Robert Eggers in the 13th-century thriller Werwulf, scheduled for release in late 2026. Her single “One of the Girls” (from the HBO series The Idol) remains a streaming giant, having surpassed 1 billion streams on Spotify.
HOW DID Lily-Rose Depp become famous?
While she was born into fame as the daughter of Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis, Lily-Rose made her own mark at age 15 with a cameo in the film Tusk (2014). She became a global fashion fixure in 2015 when Karl Lagerfeld handpicked her to be the face of Chanel, a partnership that continues a decade later. Her transition to serious acting was cemented by her roles in The King (2019) and her divisive but highly-watched lead role in the HBO series The Idol (2023), which made her a household name for a new generation.
BEFORE THE FAME
Lily-Rose’s “before” was spent in a highly private, bilingual world between Paris and Los Angeles. Her parents famously kept her away from the cameras for much of her childhood to give her a “normal” upbringing. Interestingly, she originally wanted to be a singer like her mother, even appearing on Vanessa’s album Bliss. However, after her first day on a film set, she realized acting was her true calling, eventually dropping out of high school in 2016 to pursue her career full-time.
CLOSE WITH (ASSOCIATED);
Lily-Rose is the older sister of Jack Depp, who largely stays out of the public eye. She is in a high-profile, long-term relationship with rapper 070 Shake (Danielle Balbuena), whom she has called the “love of her life.” Her inner circle includes “It-girl” peers like Jennie Kim (from BLACKPINK), Margaret Qualley, and Stella Maxwell. Professionally, she is a frequent collaborator with director Robert Eggers and designers at Chanel, where she is considered a permanent muse.
