5 actors born with a “golden spoon” enjoy privileges that not everyone has

Recently, the term “nepotism baby” (or “nepo baby”) has become popular in Western countries. This phrase is used to refer to young boys who grew up in families whose parents are rich and famous.

Some “nepo babies” have become famous stars and proven their real talent. However, many argue that they achieved such fame in part because their parents had connections in the industry and were given opportunities.

Actress/model Lily-Rose Depp

Lily-Rose Depp’s daughter, Johnny Depp and actress Vanessa Paradis, started her modeling career when she participated in her first advertising campaign for Chanel. At the age of 16, she became the fashion house’s youngest ambassador, leading an eyewear campaign.

Since then, Lily-Rose has starred in Chanel Beauty ads, sat in the front rows of power shows, modeled at legendary shows for the French brand, and has a host of other perks.

It was her mother – actress and singer Vanessa Paradis – who brought her daughter close to the fashion house. Paradis is a longtime ambassador of Chanel, representing COCO perfume and many of the brand’s handbag models.

In an interview with ELLE in November, Lily-Rose attracted attention when she expressed her frustration because many people called her “a grandchild”. The actress believes that parents are not the only factor that leads a person to success, but they also need to make efforts.

But Lily-Rose’s statement received many mixed comments. Many people point out that Lily-Rose’s modest height (1.52 m) could be the first barrier in her modeling career. Without her parents’ support, it would be difficult for Lily-Rose to reach her current position.

Chef Brooklyn Beckham

According to The Independent, another typical example of a “nepo baby” is Brooklyn Beckham.

A few months ago, TikToker Daniel Mac approached Brooklyn Beckham – who was sitting in a limited edition car worth more than 1 million USD. When asked about his profession and how he affords such luxuries, Brooklyn bluntly replied: “I’m a chef.” With just 5 words, Brooklyn implies that he can afford to buy an expensive car himself.

But he was quickly criticized for not mentioning his family’s origins: His father is the famous former football player David Beckham and his mother is a former member of the famous Spice Girls group – Victoria Beckham. They are giving him certain privileges that non-popular kids cannot achieve.

Supermodel Kendall Jenner

One of the most criticized “grandchildren” is the world’s most expensive supermodel Kendall Jenner. She once strongly denied that coming from one of Hollywood’s most famous families had anything to do with her modeling career.

“Of course, I have a platform and I never take it for granted. But it almost makes my job a little bit harder,” Kendall Jenner shared during the reunion special of the Kardashian family. According to Refinery29, this is despite the fact that Kendall’s mother – Kris Jenner – helped her daughter sign with Wilhelmina Models in 2010.

Actor Timothée Chalamet

The 26-year-old American has become a Hollywood heartthrob since his critically acclaimed role as Elio in the movie Call Me By Your Name .

Timothée’s parents were not stars or from aristocratic backgrounds. Timothée’s mother – Nicole Flender – is a dancer on Broadway. His maternal grandfather is writer and filmmaker Harold Flender.

Song Timothée Chalamet continuously strives and proves his acting talent. He is one of the most popular stars in Hollywood, starring in the films Little Women and Dune , receiving many award nominations for his work.

Actress Maya Hawke

The daughter of actress and model Uma Thurman and actor Ethan Hawke is one of the few celebrities to admit that having famous parents helped her advance her career.

The 24-year-old girl is known mainly for her roles in two films Stranger Things and Do Revenge .

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Maya Hawke said: “I feel that the only way to come to terms with the ‘nepo baby’ thing – which certainly gives you huge advantages – is if you have the opportunity to costs, but opportunities are not endless”.
