Being a nepo baby doesn’t give you talent. She did all the work, she just didn’t have to spend a decade serving tables while waiting to be discovered. Nepotism sucks, but we shouldn’t turn away genuinely hard working and talented people for it. It’s more like a red flag that makes the nepo baby need to prove themselves, which she did.
She’s talented and hard working, but there are zillions of actresses just as talented and hard working as her. The nepotism is what gets her the extra auditions and gets her selected over the other equally talented and hard working actresses
And people could come under the impression you were born with a trust fund but attribute your millions to your “hard working investment strategy”… it’s the same. You can put hard work in, but after a certain threshold it guarantees success. It’s life on easy mode. Period.
Edit: And she probably never got diddlied by an ugly old producer. Which I am honestly happy about for her.
there’s a couple nepo babies in Hollywood that I’m ok with. She’s one of them, Julia Louse Dreyfus is another one. I mean, granted going into acting and getting some success was not exactly due to straight up hard work, but there’s plenty of people in similar situations who don’t put in ANY work, don’t give us good performances and don’t support decent social causes…
I just can’t get angry just from where they came. I get angry with those that exploit and feel entitled simply due to their luck of birth.
How is Julia Louis-Dreyfus a Hollywood nepo baby? Her family doesn’t work in the industry. Sure she’s privileged as hell since she is a billionaire heir. She never had to worry about money while pursuing an acting career, but being privileged isn’t automatically nepotism. Maybe her family could have used their vast network to get her an audition for SNL but there is no proof of that.
Yeah, I suppose you are right, but money pretty much replaces connections in any industry so I lump them in the same category. Both had roadblocks cleared for them that most don’t due to connections. One came from the industry, another from Industry.
I mean yes, but also no. She’s a total nepo baby. Her mom was a big actress and her dad was literally the president of NBC

Yeah and that’s the damage. I said as much. But they aren’t going to not audition her.
And you sound awfully like Pol Pot now

Though her son is a straight up nepo baby.

I think you mean legacy artist. Nepo babies are the ones that can’t act.
Not true at all. Nepo babies can be talented, but they got a massive leg up over the competition because of who their parents are.
So, not normal
