– I am so tired of people blaming nepotism to explain why they are not rich and famous or successful. Lottie Moss, younger sister of supermodel Kate Moss, is said to have recently written on Twitter. – Of course, it is not fair that people who come from famous families get benefits because of that. But guess what? Life is not fair, continued Moss, who is also a model. The Twitter thread, which has since been deleted, is considered by several media outlets to be the last post in the debate about nepo babies. UNFAIR WORLD: Model Lottie Moss is the younger sister of supermodel Kate Moss. Recently, she came out hard against the criticism of nepo babies. Here she is pictured with Bulgari CEO Christophe Babin. Photo: Kamil Zihnioglu \/ AP For 2022, the nepotism of the starry sky was seen through and searched with the help of two small words: Nepo and baby. Nepo babies is an abbreviation for nepotism babies, which in Norwegian can be translated as the slightly small-sounding nepotism child. The term describes celebrities who are themselves the children of celebrities, and who can be assumed to have been born into a rather privileged life situation with massive pillows sewn under their arms. Not to mention a huge network of contacts. And while it’s not new in itself that celebrities give birth to celebrities, it’s only this year that discussions about nepo babies have really heated up. Do you have an advantage to the starry sky if you have celebrity parents? Yes, nepo babies need to check their privileges. ? No, there is a reason why it is called “everyone is the forge of his own success”. ?\u200d? Show result NEPO-ZO\u00cb: Zo\u00eb Kravitz, known for her role as Catwoman in the latest Batman film, says that being called a nepo baby gives her a sense of deep insecurity. Photo: Vianney Le Caer \/ AP Denies nepotism The debate boiled over when nepo baby above all nepo babies, Lily-Rose Depp, denied that her very famous family connections are the reason she has already had a smashing career as both a model and actress. – The Internet seems to care a lot about that type of thing, she told the fashion magazine Elle in November. LIKE MOTHER, SO DAUGHTER: Lily-Rose Depp (right) with mum Vanessa Paradis. Both have had brilliant modeling careers. Photo: Francois Mori \/ AP – People will always have preconceived ideas about you and how you got to where you are today, and I can definitely say that nothing will give you a role unless you are the right person for the job, she continued . These statements made some people see red. Lily-Rose Depp, who is the daughter of supermodel Vanessa Paradis and actor Johnny Depp, had her first modeling assignment for Chanel – the same fashion house that her mother has worked for for a number of years. NEPO-BABY-BOOM: New York Magazine has dedicated its entire front page to an in-depth analysis of the nepo babies phenomenon in its issue that came out earlier in December. Photo: Skjermdump \/ NYMag \/ TWITTER And she made her film debut side by side with her father Johnny Depp, in the film “Yoga Hosers” when she was 15. – I was not born on a sexy pillow Lily-Rose Depp’s statements therefore got the Italian model colleague Vittoria Ceretti to react strongly. – I have many friends who are nepo babies and whom I respect, but I still can’t bear to hear you compare yourselves to me. I wasn’t born on a comfortable, sexy pillow with bright future prospects. I know it’s not your fault, but please appreciate and show self-awareness about where you’re coming from, Ceretti wrote on his Instagram account. – You can tell me sad little stories about not succeeding, but you can still go to your dad and cry on his couch in their villa in Malibu. What about not being able to afford to fly home to your family? Ceretti went on to ask rhetorically if a nepo baby would even survive the first five years of her career. NOT A NEPO BABY: Model Vittoria Ceretti hit back when Lily-Rose Depp claimed her famous family background was not the reason for her star status. Photo: CHRISTOPHE ARCHAMBAULT \/ AFP – You have no idea how much it takes for people to respect you. It takes tears. It takes years. You get it absolutely free on day one. Several models supported Ceretti’s power volley, among them Anok Yai and Aweng Ade-Chuol. – We don’t get to choose whether we have a supportive background or not, but for a moment – show insight into your own experiences, wrote Chuol on social media. Chuol himself has fled from South Sudan and lived for several years in a Kenyan refugee camp. SUPPORTS CERETTI: Supermodel Anok Yai is among several who supported Vittoria Ceretti’s statements that family connections have a lot to say about whether one succeeds in one’s career.

STATEMENT: TikTok user is tired of nepo babies with no ground contact. Photo: mizft \/ tiktok \u2013 I don’t know why I’m shocked. I expected more from Lily-Rose Depp, but of course she turned out to be just like any other nepo babies, he says in the video clip. On TikTok, the discussion about nepo babies has gone like hotcakes. Several users have used the platform to deal properly with celebrity children’s innate star status and privileges. But despite the scolding, Lily-Rose Depp is far from the only celebrity child who has been critical of the nepo baby label. Deep uncertainty and massive benefits There was an ever-so-slight tremor through social media when users around the world realized that supporting actress Maude Apatow in the smash hit “Euphoria” is the daughter of star director Judd Apatow and actor Leslie Mann. Maude Apatow later said that she was “sad” when she was first called a nepo baby. NEPO SHOCK: There was an ever so slight tremor through the internet when people realized that supporting actress Maude Apatow in the smash hit Euphoria is the child of star director Judd Apatow and actor Leslie Mann. Photo: Jordan Strauss \/ AP Zo\u00eb Kravtiz, daughter of artist Lenny Kravitz and actress Lisa Bonet, has said being called a nepo baby fills her with “deep insecurity.” However, child of former celebrity couple Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke, actress Maya Hawke has admitted that having two famous parents comes with “massive advantages in life”. At the same time, she emphasized that the roles stop coming if you do a bad job. Hawke also pointed out that the debate about nepotism is too often blown out of proportion. THURMAN-HAWKE-HYBRID: Celebrity child Maya Hawke is known, among other things, from the series Stranger Things, where she plays the character Robin. She is the daughter of Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman. Photo: Netflix \/ Netflix – You are not God’s gift to humanity, but you are not a small, dirty garbage rat either, said Hawke in an interview with Rolling Stone. Blame the patriarchy Lily-Rose Depp, however, blamed the patriarchy for nepo babies becoming a thing at all. – I feel that throughout much of my career, people have really wanted to define me based on the men in my life, whether it’s men in my family or boyfriends, Depp said in the interview with Elle. CELEBRITY PARENTS: Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis were one of Hollywood’s favorite couples for a number of years and have children Lily-Rose and Jack Depp together. Johnny Depp split from Vanessa Paradis in 2012, and got together with Amber Heard shortly afterwards. Heard and Depp did not manage to have any nepo babies before the marriage was broken up and ended with a court scandal. Photo: Amy Sancetta \/ Ap But is it completely true? There are many nepo babies who define themselves as men, for example Jaden Smith and Brooklyn Beckham – both with famous mothers and fathers. And then you can always mention Chet Hanks, son of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson. Hanks has built an entire career on being a hated internet phenomenon who fakes his Jamaican accent and has repeatedly made racist remarks. Time for re-creation He is also a corona denier. Nevertheless, he has released a number of rap songs and has been given roles in several well-known TV series, such as “Empire” and “Shameless”. WORST GUY IN THE WORLD? Chet Hanks, son of Tom Hanks, has created media coverage after media coverage – most often by being obnoxious, either with or without intention. Photo: Richard Shotwell \/ AP Journalist Nate Jones in New York Magazine, who has devoted an entire cover photo to the phenomenon, points out that 2022 has really been the year of nepotist children, partly because the film industry is largely built on remakes and reproductions. Then the value of a historic, well-known name is great \u2013 also for filmmakers who diligently use family connections to attract audiences.
