Lily Collins Laughs Off 'Snow White' Director's Eyebrow Obsession

'It's good to know he has a strong vision of what he wants Snow White to look like,' she tells MTV News of Tarsem Singh.

At WonderCon last month, "Snow White" director Tarsem Singh laughingly told almost every outlet in San Francisco that he cast Lily Collins as his fairy-tale heroine because of her eyebrows. "I just saw her eyebrows and I said, 'That's Snow White,' " he told MTV News.

The press went wild with the suggestion that her brows — as opposed to, say, her talent — landed her the coveted role opposite Julia Roberts' Evil Queen. That couldn't be further from the truth. But still, we were left wondering: Did Lily's eyebrows really draw in Tarsem when they first met?

"He told me he likes my eyebrows," Collins said to MTV News in a recent interview. "That came up maybe as a joke at the end of our long conversation. He's a very funny guy, and he's got a great sense of humor, and I think he threw that out as part of a joke, and everyone seemed to catch on.

"But I'm glad he liked my eyebrows. It's a compliment," she added. "It's good to know he has a strong vision of what he wants Snow White to look like, and I'm very glad I'm a part of that."

A "strong vision" is an understatement. At WonderCon, Tarsem described his "Snow White" aesthetic as incorporating Gaudi's architecture into an England-based locale, inspired by turn-of-the-century Russian films and directed by an Indian director. As for his costumes, he declared, "I never know how actors give you all the trust, because the stuff that I make people wear does not look ridiculous — it looks ridiculous."

The day after she stopped by the MTV Newsroom, Collins was set to go in for her first costume fitting. She didn't know what to expect, except that it would indeed be outrageous. "They've taken my sizes and they've gone off and designed whatever crazy costumes Tarsem has in mind," she said. "I've heard him describe his vision on this, yet I haven't actually seen ideas yet or sketches or anything. So I'm going to walk into this completely unaware and walk out probably dumbfounded with excitement. It's going to be amazing whatever it is, because Tarsem is the definition of a true visionary."

Lady Gaga's 'Edge Of Glory' Is A 'Bold Move,' Co-Producer Says

'This record is all heart,' Fernando Garibay tells MTV News about the sax-driven record.

Lady Gaga's "Edge of Glory" is an undeniably pure pop track. The Born This Way single dropped earlier this week, and the song's co-producer, Fernando Garibay, says he's still "very surprised," "floored," even, by the song's release.

"You know what's crazy, as we were making the record ... 'Born This Way' is a statement song, but here with 'Edge of Glory, it's very personal to her," he explained. "It is very personal and very real; it's a real moment. This record is all heart."

Garibay worked on "Edge of Glory" with Gaga and DJ White Shadow, who also revealed some details about the song to MTV News before its release, calling Gaga's vocal delivery on the track particularly moving. "This song's had room for her too ... this is her natural tone. The vocal was one take," White Shadow said. "The whole thing from top to bottom was her, just backstage singing it all the way through."

At the pop star's request, Garibay threw in a heartbeat and made sure during production that it was clear Gaga's "finding acceptance in the bridge." He added, "It's a bold move on her part to put this out there the way it is, where the full version is intact [on the radio]. When was the last time you heard a musical solo sax break in the middle of a song on the radio? It was innovative as a song and it was totally guided by the emotions and the heart. That's what we did here. She wanted to put sax on it ... Her references were E Street Band and Bruce Springsteen, so the isolation of what the sax represents in the music dichotomy, what it represents in the whole spectrum of music," he said of the saxophone section, which is actually played by E Street's Clarence Clemmons.

"And that's how we captured that feeling. It's like that moment of acceptance and letting go. ... She said, 'Dude, there's no boundary, go all the way.' Her soft side is just as intense and as emotional as her intense, hands-in-the-air side you see onstage," he added.

Garibay couldn't even imagine what a video for the song might look like. "We're all excited," he said. It's always a surprise, but whatever it is, it's going to be epic. ... In this case, it's edgy because it's not edgy."
