Most of them started out the same way -- hitting the streets, hustling, working odd jobs to make ends meet and lucked out becoming wealthy stars... If I were any of them, I'd be donating major money to help out fellow actors and writers.

Granted, some A-listers were born to privilege and probably don't fully understand how hard it can be to work a 'regular' job while trying to work as an actor. Nepo babies can kindly stay quiet.

Clooney is a nepo baby.

I'm always surprised he isn't more of an asshole because of this tbh but he came up with some people who never made it and I think that's why he stays humble.

I refused to believe Amal would marry a loser asshole so that alone gives him points for me

I mean, if you ignore that very disturbing blind item, yes he's great!

Omg. That’s horrifying! And Rande Gerber too. How has this managed to get swept under the rug? Like, I can only find the one site mentioning it with a google.

He was always low key when it came to his family connections. I’m sure his family connections helped early in his career, because let’s be real, if you catch his appearances on Facts of Life and Rosanne, you’d wonder how he got the part, cause oof, his acting was really bad.

Rosemary’s son, Miguel Ferrer, was a really great character actor, and should have had George’s career tbh.

[recognitions]

Miguel didn't have George's face

[chase65]

Yeah that's the long and short of it. I really liked Miguel and he looked just like his father which gets you a different kind of career regardless of family connections.

I used to watch Crossing Jordan and then I loved Twin Peaks. I get so sad when I think of Miguel Ferrer.

[thatgum_youlike]

miguel ❤️❤️❤️ he was a double nepo baby too! deserved a better career for sure

[amor143x]

I will always hate on him a bit bc of that actors round table where he cut off Viola when she was discussing what it was like for her getting fame at an older age-to talk about how ~they ~all had it hard or smth. Funny how his family connections didn’t come up!

[wwgrogudo]

RIP Miguel

[gillenvillain]

True, I keep forgetting his parents.
