Calling them nepo is rude.

To me, nepotism is giving someone a job or position simply because of who their family is. But if someone has put in the time and effort, has the talent, can stand on their own, and could get the part without help. Then they deserve to and shouldn't be punished because of who their family is.

Recently coined and vilified thanks to a bunch of "influencers" complaining that they can't get acting or modeling jobs because of all the "nepo babies" in the industry. Sorry people, following a parent or relative in the same business is as old as employment. It may not be fair, but it is how the world has worked for millenia. In entertainment, the cream will rise. If the kid has talent, they will have a great career (Jeff Bridges, Jaimie Lee Curtis, Emma Thompson, Lenny Kravitz, Ron Howard, etc.). If the kid doesn't have talent, they will fade away (a few like Tory Spelling may find ways to hang around but won't have a great acting career).

Emilly osment was not startet in hannah montanah, she startet to acting in the saga of Spy Kids she apeard in spi kids 2 and 3, that was 4 years before hannah montanah

Being a nepo baby doesn't mean you don't have talent. It means you had a 1000% easier chance getting in the door because of a famous relative. People need to stop pretending that all of these actors be famous without help or at the very least they're recognizable name

I knew about Emily Osment, but i had no idea about Ever Anderson

I remember watching Emma Roberts on the nickelodeon show unfabulous i used to watch her on that show it was OK it was pretty funny though honestly, if she ever went back to do a reboot of it, I will be pretty surprised, but watching her on that show made me remember her and I love listening to her version of Santa Claus is coming to town. I can’t stop listening to that version two it’s pretty fun.

Another "nepo baby" is Tex Hammond, son of voice actress Grey DeLisle and Americana musician Murry Hammond. He voice acted in his mom's series "The Loud House" and at only 16 is one of the top up and coming painter artists on the planet.

Ever Anderson being a nepo baby makes so much sense now😂

What about Jaden Smith, he wouldn't of been in the karate kid if Will Smith wasn't his father

Hey Watchmojo you forgot to mention that Nico Parker started her big role in and Disney live-action film Dumbo..... BTW why Damon Wayans son Damon Wayans Jr not on this list. He starred in numerous hit TV series and movies like the Fox hit comedy series New Girl with Zooey Deschanel and Let's Be Cops so on....Plus you forgot about legendary actors Bruce Willis and Demi Moore daughter( Rumer Willis) and Denzel Washington son(David John Washington) as well.

Did anybody else have to look up nepotism? LOVE your channel!!!!

Sooooo... no Uma Thurman's daughter, whose name i can't remember, no Kieran Culkin, no Jaden AND Willow Smith, no Elle Fanning, no Elizabeth Olsen, no Lily Rose Depp, and on and on and on.

I feel like nepotism refers more towards people getting the job with out talent. Like Jaden Smith for example. I feel like his dad basically produces movies to put him in. Of the ones I’ve heard of in this list they all have talent. And aren’t riding on their famous names.

This list is filled with people that I already knew were nepo babies (who didn't know that Emma was Julia's niece?) and people I've never heard of. LOL "Here's this actor you've never heard of, and here are his parents: two people that you've also never heard of."

If there are any other nepotism babies, hope for an eventual part 2 please

Not every celebrity kids are nepotism baby 😂😂😂 like most of those are not to me

Forgot about the Skarsgards and the Fiennes

Hard to not know these when you made about 300 videos about it

when they have the same last name or the famous relatives name in anyway, shape or form. IT is not HARD to figure our who their parent is. ALso, Elizabeth Allen-Dick? Has only one screen credit

do I agree with your picks? Heck I only recognized a few names or shows

There are a lot more you could add to this list but the one from new Zealand and the UK can't really be counted on this list if their parents aren't really known in Hollywood. I it's good you picked for the rest people who's break out roles mostly were with their parents movies that's what a nepotism baby is.

If they didn’t get their roles purely by name &/or parental intervention, then they wouldn’t classify, in my opinion. Honestly didn’t recognize many of the names & some really don’t bear a whole lot of resemblance to their parents, so from my perspective, unless a kid got their role like the first kid (Tim Allen’s?!), b/c one of the parent is in the movie or directed/produced the movies, I wouldn’t quite label them as ‘nepo babies”, per se. Osment, Apatow & Roberts were the only three I recognized & those three are definitely nepo babies, emphasis on Emma Roberts. It’s interesting how things have changed, b/c I read somewhere that many people, pre-2000s, would change their surnames just so they can shed their connection to their famous parents. This particular article was re: Rockwell & how he changed his name & signed with his father’s label without anyone knowing who he really was.

So, being the child of people famous in some trade, means you are forbidden from trying to have a career in the same trade under the penalty of being publicly demeaned as a "nepo baby"?

Having family connections doesn't equate to being untalented, but they do open the doors to many mediocrities who are accepted with disregard for standards - thanks to corruption, favoritism and elitism.

His father, Rance Howard, got an acting job in a western and they needed a little kid for a scene so he brought his little son with him. Even though the scene was short and there was no dialogue for little Ronny, he was noticed and the rest is history. Dad got him his first job but his presence and talent got him a career.

*Well, nothing against nepotism, as long as the person really appreciates their privileges and has the talent to carry on.

It will be appearance, because the person is beautiful and standard, or because there is someone important supporting, but really talent... No, no!* *Look at the case of Angelina Jolie, she insisted on trying to do tests, without revealing who her father was. And today she is an icon. We know that in the world, WE ALWAYS NEED HELP.
