Celebrities who acknowledged their nepo-privilege
Celebrities who acknowledged their nepo-privilege…The veracity with which the age old nepotism debate has caught fire in recent times, easily places it in the bracket of evergreen gossip fodder. The debate also stands consistently sparked, courtesy of legacy names from showbiz justifying the assumed privilege— sometimes aggressively, sometimes candidly. maya Hawke in this regard, has added her name to the mix once again. The actor wholeheartedly accepted how repeatedly being called out for her privilege in navigating her path in Hollywood, is in fact, “a lucky place to be”.Who really deserves it?Maya, daughter to actors Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman, had been caught unawares in the nepotism crossfire earlier, based off her comments during an interview in 2019. The fact that the actor auditioned with her father in her bedroom and bagged a role in Quentin Tarantino’s (2019) just didn’t sit right with the internet. Especially for how nonchalantly maya relayed her anecdote. Almost 5 years later, the actor has a refined perspective to share. She is self-admittedly “comfortable with not deserving it and doing it anyway".Elizabeth Olsen, sister to actors-turned-fashion designers Ashley Olsen and Mary-Kate Olsen, recalls feeling conflicted about this very sentiment back when she was all of 10 years old. In 2021, the Avengers star recalled not wanting to be associated with her sisters during her early years as a child actor. Elizabeth even considered dropping her last name. Olsen then, presents herself as a bankable example of a quintessential 'nepo baby' who has managed to prove her worth over the years.
