Nepo Baby

[Tom Hanks](https://people.com/tag/tom-hanks/) also weighed in on the conversation, telling Reuters, per The Sun, about his role in [A Man Called Otto](https://people.com/movies/see-tom-hanks-in-a-man-called-otto-first-look-exclusive/) and the "family business" of entertainment. We have four kids — they're all very creative, they're all involved in some brand of storytelling." "The current conversation about nepo babies is just designed to try to diminish and denigrate and hurt," she continued. "I have been a professional actress since I was 19 years old so that makes me an OG Nepo Baby," Curtis, 64, wrote. And while Bieber is embracing the phrase in her latest look, others like Jamie Lee Curtis and Lily Allen have expressed their concerns about it.

Hailey Bieber, who is the daughter of Stephen Baldwin and niece of Alec Baldwin, wore a shirt with the phrase "Nepo baby" printed on it.

[Kate Hudson](https://www.insider.com/kate-hudson-says-she-doesnt-care-about-nepo-baby-debate-2022-12) and Jamie Lee Curtis, who also have famous relatives, have spoken out in several interviews about their dislike of the phrase. [daughter of movie stars](https://www.insider.com/lily-rose-depp-entitled-private-thoughts-johnny-depp-2022-11?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=yahoo.com)," wrote Curtis, 64. The term is used to describe a famous person who may have found success due to a relative also being in showbusiness. She wore it with a belted pair of low-rise jeans, a black handbag, and black loafers. The words printed on the T-shirt are a not-so-subtle reference to the debate about nepo babies in the entertainment industry. [Rhode Skin](https://www.insider.com/guides/beauty/hailey-bieber-rhode-skincare-review), 26, was spotted out in about in Los Angeles, California on Friday wearing a cropped white T-shirt with the words "Nepo Baby" printed on the front.

Hailey Bieber, niece of Alec Baldwin, was phorographed wearing a cropped white t-shirt printed with the words, "nepo baby."

She may have a sense of humor about her family ties, but she has also discussed her nepo baby status in ways that might lean a little more toward the hard work ethos. The Vulture article didn’t really dig too deep on Hailey, who is the niece of actor Alec Baldwin, and apart from the t-shirt appearance, she hasn’t really said much else in response. It has been an especially cold winter for the children of the rich and famous, and Hailey Bieber has something to say about the topic.

The daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin and niece of Alec Baldwin addressed the viral topic with a true fashion statement, during a day out in Los Angeles.

Because people are ready to pull you down and say 'You don’t belong there' and 'You’re only there because of your dad, or your mom,' or whatever the case may be." So the playing field is not level in that way," Paltrow said. Bieber, née Baldwin, faced criticism and accusations of nepotism when she first began her modeling career in the 2010s.

Short for nepotism baby, the term has become a popular, semi-derogatory way to describe someone who has well-connected parents in their chosen field (though ...

After Paltrow said that rising children of celebrities shouldn’t limit themselves, Bieber said that she “needed to hear that today”. Last year, she had Gwyneth Paltrow (who, in addition to being Gwyneth Paltrow, is the daughter of actor Blythe Danner and producer Bruce Paltrow) on her YouTube series “Who’s In My Bathroom”. (She is barred from social media, but still knows how to stir up the platforms!) And who can forget Winona Ryder showing up at court after she was caught shoplifting a $760 Marc Jacobs cashmere sweater wearing Marc Jacobs’s autumn/winter 2001 collection? Recently, New York magazine devoted a viral magazine package to the term, in which Bieber was labelled a “double nepo”, referring not only to her father, but also her husband Justin Bieber. What’s a girl to do but wear the label with pride and a pair of low-rise jeans? There, Paltrow voiced the more controversial opinion that children of people in the industry have to work harder than those without connections in order to prove themselves.
