Child of a famous actor/celebrity etc. lots of the time Nepo Babyβs donβt have any skills what so ever and only get famous due to the connections that their parents have but sometimes they actually do have acting/modeling/whatever skills!
Ex. Lilly Rose Depp, Taissa Farmiga, basically anyone on the American Horror Story Cast
(DISCLAIMER!!! Not all Nepo babyβs have bad acting skills /modeling skills)

What happened to the best person for the job? It should be the best person most competent person for the job. Is a thing you have said repeatedly. You don't actually care about meritocracy. YOU want preserve your ability to horde opportunities for yourself, your cronies, and your kids. AT THE COST OF EVERYONE ELSE.
Hym "If you don't have a problem with Nepo babies you don't actually have a problem with DEI."
