Whitney is the definition of nepotism as she followed her mother and cousins Respectfully nepotism means being positively discriminated due to family ties - Whitney is pure talent and would go down in history as one of the greatest recorded voices in human history with or without her family OT: being born in a family in the business helps IMMENSELY but i don’t think Liza Minelli, Cher, or Miley qualify as famous-thanks-to-nepotism celebrities as they are incredibly talented on their own Is there some reason my LG7 isn't here?

He happened to have a famous aunt, but Rosemary Clooney hardly had enough influence in the entertainment industry to push her nephew. Talent runs in the family just like other things, it makes perfect sense that some successful people had successful relatives. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemonkey 639 Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Kaia Gerber. She wouldn’t make it as a model if her mom wasn’t a supermodel. Actually a lot of today’s “supermodels” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most nepotism artists have talent but got to where they were thanks to their family connections. I.E Miley wouldn’t be anything without Billie Rae Together You And I!

Actually a lot of today’s “supermodels” I agree with this about most other nepotism models but not Kaia. She’s a really special model imo and it happens that a big part of it is because of her parent’s genes. Modelling is first and foremost about physical appearance, naturally being a supermodel’s kid means you have an advantage? She was born to be a model (as many unknown girls are too, but I don’t think that discredits her potential though). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GagasLeftFoot 391 Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Miley is not a nepo kid. She got the Disney deal fair and square and her dad was a one hit wonder. The true nepo kid is Noah, Miley's sister. Which further proves my point, everybody refers to her as Miley's sister, not Billy's daughter. the last thing the world needs is another feet lover, but that's TOO BAD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nepotism is often used pejoratively, but the denotation is not overtly negative. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
