I think nepotism is problematic when people like Kim Kardashian is telling people they need to get off their ass and work. As if she knows what it means to truly work hard and still be struggling. It's a lot easier to hit a home run if you started off on 3rd base. Some of us don't even know where the game is being held to begin with 🤷🏾‍♀️

I think we really need to stop using terms like “talented”, because it makes it seem like these people are just naturally good entertainers somehow, when actually a lot of them were just able to get the best music/acting training money can buy. Anyone can study hard and become a decent actor, singer, etc if they want to. It has less to do with “talent” and more to do with time, money, and resources. I’m trying to use “skilled” instead of talented, because I think “talented” makes people think that if they’re not a natural at something, their dream will always be out of reach, and I don’t agree with that.

Good point. I wonder the history of how actors/actresses became referred as "talent" given they're the ones who are guided 9 out of 10 times on what to do. Better point you made is that acting is, well, acting. It's a unique skill (debatably whether it's an actually talent given the amount of guidance they get - they don't do they're own makeup or costumes, they don't write their own lines/barely any improve, they need to be guided by the directors, editors make them look real good) but ultimately it's pretending to be someone you're not (or someone you relate to because the character is closer to your own life/mentality).

I think its important for the artists to recognize their privileges too. They not only have connections, but some part of their talent is also constructed by their opportunities to study and practice whatever profession they want, like acting and singing classes by the best and most expensive schools/tutors. Eventhough their talent is worked hard for and etc, their opportunities are completely different. This discussion is very important in the distorted ideas surrounding meritocracy as well. Especially in the entertainment industry.

Yes! They must recognize their privilege. It's like how having white privilege doesn't make a white person a "bad person", or how a man having male privilege doesnt automatically make him a bad person. But what IS bad is ignoring that privilege & continuing to do nothing about it nor give back in any way.

It’s not always a bad thing if you’re actually talented. Gladys Knight was Aaliyah’s aunt. Technically, Whitney Houston could be called a nepotism baby. She came from a LONG line of talent and music royalty. Her god mother was Aretha Franklin and her aunt was Dionne Warwick. But she was still gifted, herself. 🤷🏽‍♀️ That’s why I think this is a hard standard to apply across the board. If your relatives are movers and shakers in Hollywood, then yeah, you’re privileged. But if you simply *happen* to be related to other talented people, then I think that’s just a coincidence. I think it’s the same when it comes to modeling. Let’s be honest- Beauty, weight, and height are the biggest factors, and they’re also usually genetic. If you were chosen specifically for your unusual genes, then people who share your genes will have an advantage. Sadly, It’s not a meritocracy.

@RunningOnEmpty yeah but just because great singers who don’t have famous parents don’t get as much fame doesn’t mean that actual talented celebrities kids don’t deserve it.

@namjoonstrashbag6889
@namjoonstrashbag6889 2 года назад
@RunningOnEmpty I think it’s important to acknowledge that they do have it easier but it’s still also good to acknowledge that talented kids with famous parents deserve a career in something they excel in. At the end of the day it’s the rest of us that give some people the attention and the money they have, so we should focus on the talented people instead of the ones that don’t do anything.

@@namjoonstrashbag6889 i don't think they were saying talented nepotism babies don't deserve their fame or don't work for what they have. But they have had to work relatively less hard (at least early in their career) than someone coming into the fame game with nothing. It's not inherently bad to have privilege. But it is bad to have privilege, not acknowledge it, & not try to even the playing field or give back in any way. Like some nepo babies hire a lot of minorities when they get to a certain status, & I love that. Nepotism, favoritism, & the privilege it brings has lead to our government & institutions being run almost by entirely white men for generations. I think nepotism can easily exclude minorities from fame. There are almost no famous Native American actors, for example. I fear that nepotism is too exclusionary, although some kids of famous parents deserve their fame & aren't bad people at all. They're extraordinarily lucky, but not bad.

To be honest ever since I heard Maud Apatow was a nepotism baby it hasn't changed my perception of her. She's an incredible actress and among her cast she does not stand out as someone who shouldn't and doesn't deserve to be there. She got a big help of course but I can see her standing on her own and making a name for herself.

for me a problem with nepotism babies (besides them not being good at whatever they do) is if they don't acknowledge it or straight up deny it, say kendall and kylie jenner or lena dunham and basically the whole cast of girls. some nepobabies don't even allow questions about their families in interviews. there's literally nothing we can do about nepotism in hollywood, but as long as they are talented and accept it, i don't think it's that bad? like zoe kravitz has literally said that her parents helped her, and maude apatow talks a lot about her family, and what else can they do? they are good at what they do

I concur. We give them attention so in a way we give them the green light to do it.

Six degrees of separation exists in tv/film for the fact that people stay in each others professional circle in one or another.

Yeah Miley Cyrus is the case of a nepotism babie that eventually grew into her own. She originally got denied to be the lead of Hannah Montana, but because she wasn't not a good actor starting out (season one it was so cringey watching her) when the producers found out she was Dolly Parton's god daughter they gave her the role. But she has one of the best singer voices in the industry that was the biggest reason why her Twerk phase was so annoying because she didn't have to go that route her voice spoke for itself. She actually surpassed her dad with her music. Same with Janet Jackson.

I just think it’s the nepotism babes who actual are known for their own life and career apart from their parents that people will have a hard time accepting. Willow and Jaden smith, Maude, Tracy Ellis Ross are all prime examples of people who started early and earned their fans from the get go. It’ll always be hard to deny the success of those with wealthy parents who also are uniquely talented and impactful on the viewer. Those people got their foot in the door in one second but there’s no denying the genuine talent and impactful work done by them apart from the knowledge or unknown past of said celebrity and their ancestors.

I honestly think it's more cons than pros regardless of a said person having "talent." It creates gatekeeping as well when it's only the ~exculisve related familys~ rather than you know...someone whose parents aren't in the industry. I work in film and it's just so much hard to work with directors who have NEVER worked as a PA or "below the line" they have absolutely no concept of how a set is run why 17 hour days is wrong and expect the crew to make a drop at the hat changes because they literally have never worked below to understand their ask is wrong/ridicules. I totally get that there are people who have worked from the bottom and act this exact way too, don't get me wrong but honestly...more often than not directors/talent/producers who have never really worked their entire life are much hard (in my experience) to work with than those who didn't come from nepotism. I mean like for example Sam Levinson, his sets were hitting 17 norms which is, unfortunately, the norm for some sets but he also has ZERO concepts of what it's like to be crew for those 17 hours. His dad is a producer, his first job was as an actor then director/writer. He has no concept how what he is putting his crew through and that's where nepotism is a problem.

Not quite. Nepotism is present in many industries but the more subjective an industry is, moving away from results and hard numbers, the more nepotism there is. Hollywood (film, tv) and politics are rife with nepotism. Not surprising each relies on narratives and images. You can still be a very mediocre politician and be a lifer at it.

It just irritates me when you have people like Kim Kardashian out here speaking on women, saying that women don’t want to work. It was much easier for you to get your opportunities. I’m not saying that Kim Kardashian does not work because she does, but don’t act like there aren’t people out here spend the majority of their livelihood working to make ends meet.

Ya should see this clip of Maude Apatow from one of the movies her Dad produced/directed and her Mom starred in it (This is 40) I believe this was her 1st emotional scene and her parents were so encouraging. You can see how passionate she is about the craft of acting, and her parents themselves being in the industry, how supportive they are, in a healthy loving way. I can appreciate a nepotism baby/child/adult when they acknowledge their last name and famous relatives, and are humble enough to admit that if it wasn’t for that relevancy they’ll have to work 10x harder than regular folks to get the career advancements or opportunities they got. It’s why I can’t stand the Kardashians and Jenners women, they literally live in their own bubble of calabazas and believe that the majority of ppl have the same opportunities they did 🤦🏽‍♀️ “self made”

I honestly think nepotism wouldn't be a big problem in the entertainment industry for people if acting/directing/etc. in the capacity they do would be accessible to lower classes. But instead most people in Hollywood (+ NYC and London) that aren't nepo babies are coming from families well off enough to be a safety net for them or that are able to pay for their acting training. Like the part of that industry that is accessible through hard work is overcrowded with what's been labelled the class ceiling in the UK industry. Maybe 2-5% of big actors actually come from low income backgrounds (but usually also from geographic areas that are close to important industry places). If you're rich you can go to all the events and make connections. If you're low income you need either luck w connections or luck w castings. The fact that industry even exists is crazy, if you think about the fact that 98% of actors can't live from acting.

I love how people are acting like nepotism is "rising" as if it's happening more. So many celebrities from previous generations got to where they are due to nepotism. It's more like there's a rise of people finally talking about nepotism. It's been around for a very long time. I think that as long as these people prove that they deserve that fame they've got and are truly talented and hard-working, I'm okay with it. I take issue to nepotism babies who are famous just for being rich, like Paris Hilton and all of the Kardashian/Jenner sisters. The ones that don't really do anything of value (like singing, acting, doing comedy, etc.) but are still so famous that they get invited to the Met Gala simply by existing or have their own TV shows based on themselves. It's worse when they say tone deaf crap like, "People just don't want to work these days!" Or criticise ordinary people.

I love your video quality and you are very charming and likeable but I’m tired of watching a show I don’t like jsut to be able to watch your videos lol. Also I always debate this topic with friends. Like we’re not saying these celebrities don’t work they clearly do but they can’t be out here claiming they had the same stakes as someone who had nothing and had to eat plain bread every day while working on their business. Kylie already had an audience that was programmed to do everything she did so all she had to do was pay a company to make a product for her and sell it to those fans. It’s unfair of them to say that they’re “self made” when they already had millions that they were able to turn into a billion.

They try to use their platforms to make us feel like we're part of their family that they care about us ... Social media is free advertising but I love that people are starting to wake up life should be fair ... At the end of the day you're accomplishments are still yours but let's give everybody a fair chance...

I think it is naive to think that everyone else just got to their fame by working hard and being talented. Everyone famous was lucky at some point and had someone who "saw their potential" and took them under their wing. Of course its easier if these people are literally your parents but making it in the entertainment industry is always because of a little luck. There are way too many talented people in the world for you to just work hard and do your job and becoming successful and famous like that

i don’t think it’s necessarily bad it’s just society obviously if you have good connections you will be higher in life that’s why they tell you to make connections with your teachers in high school so you can get recommended for good colleges and so on it’s not like they chose to be born into famous rich parents and i’m sure most of us would take advantage of our positions if we were born in a rich famous family and use our resources and connections to get ahead i mean who wouldn’t but obviously the problem is when they claim to be “self-made” or don’t acknowledge that they had a head start to begin with and think it’s our faults that we’re not like them (cough cough kim) when we don’t have near as much resources that they do

Kristen Stewart - parents are Hollywood people (producers) Dakota Johnson - parents are famous actors Daisy Edgar-Jones - father is tv producer (Big Brother UK) Allison Williams - father is prominent American news commentator and journalist Emma Roberts - comes from acting family (Julia Roberts - aunt, Eric Roberts - father) Lilly Collins - father is UK rock singer Sting Non of them actually really struggled with finding work as an actress; not one can be said to be a journeyman actor. Non have dedicated any portion of their life to stage work. What do they also have in common besides having blood connection to the industry? Some are more talented than others in the acting department, but each one is relatively pretty. So blood connection plus cute face = decent agent = chance at a decent role.

I feel like loads of people would put in a lot more work than I did, but that said, I did do everything and more than I was required to. Unfortunately, merit, perseverance and willpower is not the only thingthat counts in life, nepotism can play a huge role too.
