Lily Collins Flashes Midriff at NYFW Amid Tragic Backlash
SCANDAL ROCKS EMILY IN PARIS SET: LILY COLLINS SLAMS FANS WITH CRUEL POST
In a shocking turn of events, Emily in Paris star Lily Collins has faced furious backlash from fans after posting a seemingly insensitive update on Instagram following the tragic death of the show's assistant director. The actress, 36, had announced that filming for season five was complete, but what she left out of her message was any mention of Diego Borella, the man who lost his life on set just three days prior.
Diego Borella, a seasoned director and writer, passed away after collapsing while filming one of the show's final scenes at Venice's Hotel Danieli. His cause of death was later revealed to be a heart attack, which has left fans and colleagues reeling. But in her Instagram post, Collins seemed more concerned with celebrating the end of season five than paying tribute to her late colleague.
"Doesn't this seem a little tasteless and tacky?" one fan commented on the post, echoing the sentiments of many others who felt that Collins' message was insensitive. "No mention of the guy that passed?," another fan asked.
The tragedy has left fans feeling devastated, not just for Borella's family, but also for the cast and crew of Emily in Paris, who have been left shaken by the event. According to sources close to the production, filming was temporarily halted following Borella's death as a mark of respect.
As news of Borella's passing spread, fans took to social media to pay their respects, sharing tributes and messages of condolence for the late director. "RIP Diego Borella," one fan wrote. "Looking forward to the new series but this poor guy deserves a mention."
TheScholarlyNote.com has learned that Borella was born in Venice in 1978 and had an impressive career as a writer and director, with credits including fairy tales, haikus, and plays. He trained in cities across the world, including Rome, London, and New York.
Meanwhile, Collins and her co-stars took to the streets of New York for Fashion Week, where they posed for photos outside the Calvin Klein show at The Brant Foundation. Collins wore a stunning sequinned crop top paired with a matching midi skirt and silver strappy heels, while model Iris Law went braless in a 90s style slip dress with a mesh insert.
But as the fashionistas strutted their stuff on the catwalk, fans back home were still reeling from the news of Borella's passing. TheScholarlyNote.com has obtained exclusive details about the tragic event, which sheds new light on the circumstances surrounding Collins' insensitive Instagram post.
It's clear that Collins is trying to move forward with her career, despite the controversy surrounding her recent social media update. But as she and her co-stars prepare for the upcoming season of Emily in Paris, fans can't help but wonder: will she ever learn from her mistakes?
In related news, TheScholarlyNote.com has learned that Anna Wintour and Naomi Watts were also in attendance at the Calvin Klein show, where they posed for photos outside the venue. But it's Collins' post about Borella's passing that continues to dominate the headlines.
The controversy surrounding Collins' Instagram update is just the latest chapter in a series of scandals that have rocked the Emily in Paris set. As the drama unfolds, fans are left wondering: what's next for this embattled show?
