Nepo Babies! It’s what we’re wondering about. Towards the end of 2022 Twitter went buzzing about the term. A Nepo Baby, or the child of a famous actor. Many wondering about the roles they seem to be landing with ease.

Some aren’t even actors. Models, like Bella Hadid are even using their family connections to to gain acting roles. Is it wrong? Who knows. One expert said “In an industry built on reboots, a famous last name can be valuable intellectual property.” Sounds ‘bout right.

America loves legacies and a passing of the torch. A child following in the parents foot steps… Didn’t we fight a war about that once? Anyways, Nicky Trendz and Manny Oso are here to give you the skinny on what they think.

But anyways, you tell us!

Should Hollywood make their own kids work harder for roles?

What do you think of Models transitioning into actors?

Would you rather see a movie string Tom and Chet Hanks, instead? (Nicky would! Lol)
