Young and the Restless’ Lily Brooks O’Briant Teases Details Of New Gig

Lily Brooks O’Briant is “feeling very grateful” about her life lately. She’s been busy with numerous projects outside of The Young and the Restless. The aspiring star took to Instagram to share a career update with her followers, which could explain why her character has gone M.I.A. lately.

Embracing Her Inner Cheer Leader

Recently, O’Briant shared a behind-the-scenes snapshot from her secret project. The photo showed her dressed up as a cheerleader. The Y&R star wore a navy blue turtleneck under a silver sequined halter top, rocking an edgier look than usual.

Her blonde hair was styled in waves with a middle part. She wore smokey eye makeup, dark blush, and Gothic lipstick. But she still had her winning smile. 

“feeling very grateful…can’t wait to share more about what I’ve been up to recently 🎬🤍,” O’Briant wrote in the caption.

Just by looking at the emojis, she could be working on a new movie or television show. It’s also possible that she’s filming a music video. In September, she released the ultimate breakup soundtrack, Hopeless Romantic. (Get More Details About the Inspiration Behind Her Music.)

Whatever it is, fans are excited for this next installment in her career. They flocked to the comment section to react. One user supportively wrote, “Looking forward to it, [Lily Brooks O’Briant], you’re an incredible person!” Fellow child star Cameron Hoppe teased, “I heard it’s a really good one!!” 

What Happened to Lucy?

O’Briant joined the cast of Y&R as Lucy Romalotti in 2023. She left Genoa City after the death of her mom, Heather (Vail Bloom) to spend time with our touring grandpa, rockstar Danny Romalotti (Micahel Damian). Her father, Daniel (Michael Graziadei), was framed for her murder and is facing a trial.

Yet, fans know that Sharon (Sharon Case) has something to do with that gruesome night, even if the details are still blurry. Lily wasn’t at Heather’s funeral. (See How O’Briant Prepared For Lucy’s Grief.) Fans wonder if her daughter will ever have any closure in her life.

Now it makes sense as to why Lily is off the canvas. O’Briant is busy juggling multiple projects. She’s a young star in the making. What do you think of her latest Instagram post? Let us know in the comment section.
