Obvs nepo babies come in different hierarchies but regardless they come with a connection that non-nepo babies don't automatically have.
" No one’s getting jobs because their dad’s a DP.”Hmm depends cause even though she doesn't act anymore Claire Julien had a supporting role in The Bling Ring and her dad is Wally Pfister who's an Oscar-winning DP and worked a lot with Nolan on the Batman movies and Inception (he won for this one). She had a small role in Dark Knight Rises. Regardless that's an easy way to get on film set compared to those who don't have those connections

I think if you have a parent that trained in acting (or whatever Hollywood profession) and has even the barest semblance of connections and knowledge about how to make it in the industry, you get a leg up. If your parent has a Wikipedia page for being involved in Hollywood, you have connections a lot of people don't.
Even if your parents aren't well known to the average person or didn't work in Hollywood for very long, the fact that they have knowledge of how the industry works is already a huge advantage because they can help you avoid certain pitfalls and point you in the right direction, which are two things that non-industry parents don't have a clue about

If my ex friend could hold it over my head that he basically paid my bills because he got me a receptionist interview 10 years ago, she can admit she is a nepo baby. Sorry, eventually I’ll stop making posts about me!
My cousin who had a failed acting career loves to remind people of the low-budget frat boy comedy she was in 20 years ago wearing a very tiny bikini, and I hope her tween sons don't brag about that.
LMAO I tried to find the name of it the other day but I can't find it, and my cousin doesn't have an IMDb page (but mysteriously still has a Model Mayhem one). It was one where they licensed the National Lampoon name just to slap it onto the movie but it was direct to video/DVD.

I always laugh when I see statements like "my dad's a DP" because my brain automatically assumes they're using the porn version of that acronym.
