Eye Care About This SO MUCH: THIS FUCKIN' NEPO BABY ARTICLE!!

Dec 19, 2022

I had no intentions of posting anything until like Wednesday but this fucking article from Vulture that came out today —

Vulture @vulture

We love them, we hate them, we disrespect them, we’re obsessed with them. On the latest @NYMag cover, @kn8’s extremely-overly-analyzed story on Hollywood’s nepo-baby boom: vult.re/3WbhzOD

— and I thought I knew of a lot of the Nepo babies of Hollywood but APPARENTLY, I DID NOT KNOW AS MANY AS I THOUGHT.

This nepo baby piece has taught me so much this morning. Like Lena Hornes granddaughter had a baby with Bobby Cannavale

These are the ones I was shocked to learn about:

Jessica Capshaw (Arizona from Grey’s Anatomy) is STEVEN SPIELBERG’S DAUGHTER!
Zosia Mamet is NY Theatre Royalty.
Hannah Einbinder (who is incredible) from the incredible show HACKS is LARAINE NEWMANS DAUGHTER making her OG SNL ROYALTY.
Zoey Deutch (who is in my top 5 fav actresses of recent times) is LEA THOMPSONS DAUGHTER!
MELANIE GRIFFITH IS TIPPI HEDRENS DAUGHTER?!?!?
STEVE AND DEVON AOKI ARE BROTHER AND SISTER AND THEIR DAD FOUNDED BENIHANA?!?

I just am shocked but not really shocked on how much of current Hollywood is nepo babies but also I fully plan on helping any of my children should they wanna go into media so maybe in about 20 years they will appear on this list having written some play or show with the help of me, my money and my name.

If you read this plz tell me who you were shocked by?
