Into the Nepo-Verse

Nepotism babies, shortened to "nepo" babies, have become a hot topic in Hollywood. These are people who have achieved success from family connections in their industry.

This phenomenon is particularily pronounced in media because it's an industry that millions dream of being a part of, with few available spots. A family connection can go a long way.

Some celebrities have spoken up about nepotism. Kate Hudson says as long as you work hard, "it doesn't matter". Kendall Jenner says actually, family connections make getting the job "a little bit harder". Gwyneth Paltrow claims after getting the job, nepo babies "almost have to work twice as hard". Lily-Rose Depp thinks the whole thing "just doesn’t make any sense".

A common source of misunderstanding seems to be the point of this topic. Most people aren't looking to attack or belittle the work of any individual. The nepo baby discussion is a counter force to the narrative of perfect meritocracy. For this reason, Nepo List aims to be the biggest database of nepo babies and their connections.
