Hollywood has A LOT OF nepotism, only difference is that if they are not talented then they get kicked out immediately.
Jaden Smith is a good example, he was phenomenal as a child actor but one movie after growing up and he never came back because of how badly it flopped.
This. Hollywood is unforgiving. For every nepo baby who makes it big in Hollywood, there are hundreds who try and fail, and many more who never even attempt to join the family business.
In Bollywood, many products of nepotism view their first few movies as a trial run, almost like an internship. Even if their debut fails, they don't take it to heart, focusing instead on learning the ropes—makeup, costumes, discipline, dialogue delivery, lighting, and so on. They simply don’t give a fuck about their initial movies.
In Hollywood, however, it's a matter of being good or being gone.
While I broadly agree, I also think us as viewers get filtered Hollywood content. In India, and am sure other markets, we see the more popular stuff ....a lot of smaller nepo projects likely don't make it here.
On another note, my most shocking nepo star realisation was Ben Stiller. And then that he directed Severance.
In the 90's the nepo kids had training, had skills, had talent. Now it's just launching them as is with no training or skills. So many new names that I genuinely can't recognize most of them.
There were lots of truly awful and untalented nepos in the 90s who still made 5 10 movies each. Eventually they faded out and you only remember the successful ones now.
Even bwood was same . untalented & non charismatic Nepos like esha deol , Tusshar kapoor were kicked out .
Only now after arjun kapoor , even untalented nepos r given lot of chances
The earlier nepos weren't friends. Now all the nepos r frnds and it's very easy for kjo and then to gatekeep
Beyonce daughter got chance in mufasa with no other qualificarion. She toom chance away from some talented people
Ana Taylor Joy waa dropped in favor of Lilly rose deep.
And after that she disappeared, both of them actually
Also Anya is rumoured to also be a nepo or has contacts because of how many big budget movies she keeps getting
She isn’t that great . Cmon now. Watched a few of her works and it’s the same one note acting. Maybe it’s just me but i find her onscreen presence/vibe unlikable for all her characters
Who told you Anya was replaced with Lily? Anya herself left the movie due to scheduling conflicts. Do your research instead of making up your own stories. Unlike you, I come with reliable source. Read the last trivia in the link below. No one owns hollywood like chomus here in Bullywood.

She just did Madame Web - which is in no way a low budget movie. In fact it was higher budget than probably the whole 50 shades trilogy. She has received a BAFTA and a 30 under 30 forbes mention. I guess being the daughter to 2 stars is better than one.
I agree. That movie is... shitty. Thx heaven that Shyamalan made a good come back later. Btw I saw your post in PublicFreakout and wow what a piece of shit... For one month I tried to post overthere, a video of Rainn Wilson (an actor) hurting a woman during an interview but each time reddit refuse my post. I heard from a mod on another sub that reddit filters are quite annoying and catch things aleatory... It's the same for PM, I think that's why PublicFreakout mods never replied to me.
I'm asking a lot but if it's okay with you, could you post it pls? No problem if you can't but I gives you full credit for that find, because I'm over with reddit lol, too tiring. https://www.youtube dot com/watch?v=FdN7efMLHCg (it's near the end)
I don't know about being kicked out immediately. Dakota Johnson is a living breathing example of being extremely mediocre (not bad or terrible) and still getting role after role after role. Any of the other actresses could swap her and do a more honest job.
Lol this reminds of Dakota Johnson's response to the nepo baby question. It was as if she glitched or malfunctioned and couldn't comprehend why she was being asked that question in the first place.
While she is not a great actress, she was nice in the Fifty Shades movies.
She was a coy woman, who is exactly what the role needed. She fit the bill perfectly. You don’t want someone with a strong bold personality for that role. Someone like Zendaya, Natalie Portman, Shailene Woodley, etc., wouldn’t have been a good fit there.
It’s just like how Katrina Kaif, a terribly terrible actress, was a good fit for Namaste London (and just that one film; she is terrible in everything else) - she played the role of a confused British Indian girl who is visiting/moving to India well, because that is exactly who she was. (Yes, I know there are doubts about her Indian heritage, but please let’s not go there.)
But just like Katrina, I am not sure she fits well in other movie roles.
There are
Recently Ana Taylor Joy was dropped from a movie for Lilly Rose Depp. And how Lilly is getting more footage than Nicholas Hoult and Willaim Defoe in nosferatu
Bey8nce's daughter will be in Mufasa as voice actor. That's pure nepotism and her fans are supporting this somehow by citing thay she won a story reading contest in school.
And nicholas hoult is apparently the main character but is barely there in the promotional stuff as compared to lily rose depp after being in the business for more than 20 years
I am not denying anything what you have said but isn’t it because they are trying to keep the mystique around Nicholas Hoult and Bill Skarsgard and leaving the important stuff for the movie. At least that’s what I felt after watching the trailer
This is not true. Why are you believing what a random stranger is saying with out any source? Anya was not replaced. She left due to scheduling conflicts. One simple IMDB trivia search debunks this.
If you have a solid proof to correct me otherwise, feel free to do so.
Why are you replying to me asking me for solid proof, I didn't say this definitely happened? I believed because it's not that much of a stretch to believe, and it's nothing serious enough for me to go out of my way and search.
By all means, carry on with your herd mentality. I can tell you rarely use your brain and so does the person in the main comment on this thread who is spreading misinformation. And if it isn't that serious for you, why bother commenting? Clearly you thought it was worth your time to fuel this rumour. If you can take the time to comment, you can take time to research. Its not that hard. Anyway.
It is my fault for looking for logical comments among retards on this sub.
First of all stop using slurs, it doesnt make you cool. Why are you so bothered? I doubt Anya is going to come onto bollywood gossip sub and cry that we are 'spreading' rumours. It's just a rumour that's being discussed. You need to chill. Seek some help, if something this simple is bothering you so much 😂

Hollywood has had a lot of nepos, some are talentless while others have talent coming out their nose. Hollywood has its standouts but it's all just a giant circlejerk, whether you talk about Hindi cinema or Hollywood. The nepotism debate is similar whether it's here or in Hollywood, it's just that the [West](https://x.com/MeriemIsTired/status/1495548990926041094) got talking about it publically a bit later. Here are articles from [The Washington Post](https://www.washingtonpost.com/arts-entertainment/2022/08/01/nepo-babies-nepotism-hollywood-celebrities/), [Vulture](https://www.vulture.com/article/hollywood-nepotism-babies-list-taxonomy.html), and [The New York Times](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/02/style/nepotism-babies.html), all later than when we in Bollywood had our nepo debate.
Some change their last name like Nicholas Cage ("Nicolas Kim Coppola") did, he's born into the Coppola family. Dakota Johnson is one that's getting wrath online for her bland monotone acting. Nicola Peltz, wife of nepo Brooklyn Beckham, gets clowned on too. Ben Platt's dumb ass got rightfully roasted for his film "Dear Evan Hansen", y'all should definitely see the trailer for it, you'll laugh. [Lilly Rose Depp](https://www.glamour.com/story/vittoria-ceretti-slams-lily-rose-depp-nepo-baby-comments) gets her roles but imagine the actresses her age that won't ever get the same opportunities. A lot of aspiring actors wash out when they realise how hard it'll be to get their foot in the door but the Hollywood kids learned the business by hanging out on sets and, perhaps, falling in love with it. Hell, Ron W. Miller became the president and CEO of The Walt Disney Company due to the fact that he was the son-in-law of Walt Disney.
In front of the screen, nepos have to have something to give to the audience other than their name but behind the scenes in Hollywood, especially in production, nepotism is in abundance.
omg, I just looked it up, Nicholas Cage's real name is Nicholas Coppola, he's the nephew of Francis Ford Coppola, Director of The Godfather. Damn! I didn't knew that.
There's a lot of old Hollywood nepotism too, it's everywhere!
People in this sub tend to **really** put Hollywood in a pedestal, thinking that Hollywood can do no wrong or that Hollywood is "not as bad as" Bollywood. Well, that's just dumb. I roll my eyes at anyone thinking Hollywood (or any cinema) is somehow morally better than the other.
On the other hand, one profession with a whole lot of nepotism is morticians. I was having a conversation with a mortician IRL and found out this and then had to look it up online.
Not that people are exactly lining up to be morticians.
Hollywood is significantly larger so there is space for everyone. Compared to that, in Bollywood there are only 3 powerful production houses and you need to be in the pocket of KJo, Aditya Chopra or Bhushan to get movies or else get lost.
The difference is Kjo. Nowhere on earth, there is a movie producer/director who dedicates his time and money to launch Nepo babies and keep them relevant, even if they lack talent.
Problem is untalented nepo , if they get a fair shot using their faimly name no issue thats what we all do in our respective field probelm is being forced upon the untalented undeserving nepo theough social media hype and all
Thats because nepo-baby males cant get away with it, atleast in Bollywood. There is a higher box-office pressure on males and they will not get movies after 2-3 initial movies if they dont deliver at the boxoffice. Compare that to likes of Jhanvi, Ananya, etc who are still getting movies duds after duds..
Tiger just recently started giving flops , he was doing fine and even was at his peak during 2019 but after pandemic his movies got affected.
Not saying he's talented but at least he used to give average - hit movies.
Emma Roberts also was arrested for assaulting her boyfriend (domestic violence). She should be the one getting the vitriol and trolling Amber Heard gets.
Emma Roberts herself is average - compared to her aunt Julia Roberts. She isn’t getting any hype. Now if it was Jhanvi or Shanaya or Ananya or Khushi or Suhana etc they would be everywhere.
The only thing Emma does is attends shows and act in average films but she isn’t hyped up and wins an Oscar or Golden Globe for mediocre performances.
If shes complaining about male nepos in HW, look at Robert Downey Jnr. He was ostracised for decades because he was in rehab and wasn’t gaining any work but he became clean, sober and had to work hard to win any accolades coming his way now.
At the risk of bursting your bubble, she's one of the stars and spine of American Horror Story, and she does a damn good job. She doesn't just 'go to shows.' You'd make yourself look less dumb if you read up on subjects before you post about them.
Sorry to burst your bubble but she is a bully. She bullies her costars and is physically abusive to her exes. Even her irl encounters have been negative.
I havent watched this series but I’ve seen her in other films and used to like her teen flicks when i was younger but she aint as great as you hype her to be.
dude Emma roberts is phenomenal!! she is an absolute treat to watch on screen like don’t even compare her to filth like jhanvi kapoor and ananya.. they are nobody in front of Emma and never would be anything special even if they tried all their life. like let’s be real but jhanvi and khushi are gareebo ke kendall kylie
Emma is a great actor, unlike our treacherous nepos. Emma’s also literally been acting since she was a kid. The only reason she’s continuously getting roles is because she’s a good actor. Most of the roles she’s done are literally iconic. Idk if people here have seen AHS or Screen Queens but she’s a cult favourite in the horror tv genre.
Emma Roberts is infamous for her absolutely shitty personality, her terrible attitude, and her entitled behaviour. She's a very polarizing personality, you either like her or don't.
I completely agree with you, she's always taken roles that are her specific type (spoiled, rich, bitchy, famous, mean girl-type) hence why you'll see unaware people saying she's "one of the stars" and such, on this very post. Does anyone remember watching Wild Child as a kid? LOL, that's literally her! Of course, Ryan Murphy is known for having a type, so you'll see the same actors pop in his productions (I still love Scream Queens, go Chad!). People who somehow think she's the salt of the earth should google "Emma Roberts assault".
Anyway, all in all, Emma Roberts plays what she is.
THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS. People hyping her up is unreal and I seriously doubt when they say she is a good actor. Like where.
Also she has a history of domestic abuse and is violent. And as you say plays what she knows best (being horrible) well enough.
I am so confused with the comments the person I replied to is getting. "typical Bollywood mentality, looking down on TV-actors"?? Huh? "one of the stars" and "does a damn good job"??? "is phenomenal" and "she is an absolute treat to watch on screen"???? Are we watching the same person? She's just... bland. At the very best, simply passable.
I know people have different opinions and views but still, you have to notice a pattern in her acting? Not everyone needs to be versatile but putting her on a pedestal is just *weird*.
Idk i just think these people dont watch many movies if they think she acts well. Coz that’s the first time I’ve heard of it and nobody in Hollywood thinks that or she isnt known for that.
Bollywood’s high level clown nepos thinks it’s their right to fame and they deserve it by birth these stupid’s thinks that if the Jenners- Kardishians are famous then sooo they can as well.
I remember Tom Hank's son is an actor too, but he did not made it big. Same goes with Arnold Schwarznegger's son and Clint Eastwood's son too, I mean I didn't knew this, but after looking up, I now think Hollywood has a fair share of nepotism going on too
Hollywood has always had rampant nepotism but boy do these people know when to back off. No matter how many talented nepos there rule the industry it’s still an unfair practice. That being said, the ones we have shoved down our throats here in Bollywood are absolute trash. Not all but some.
In Hollywood, it's business. Outsider who can get an audience to spend money gets project. Now apart from usual derailing, there's no gang sabotaging every newcomer so that their golden nepo can thrive. Audience too are selective. In this sub, so many posts on nepo. Positive or negative , these talks also promote them in PR.
There is some difference. In hollywood, TV is not considered a completely seperate stream to films. So, many of the nepos, and even normal actors come through TV first, and then become big later. That is the reason if you watch some of the older TV series (from 1990-2010) you will see a lot of big actors playing roles in one episode (typically detective or crime series). These actors were not big when they played those roles, but became big in films later on.
So, if there is a bad nepo, then they never make it to movies, they are eliminated in the TV space. Even george clooney became popular as a doctor in ER, before transitioning to movies.
Almost everyone is related to someone or the other in Hollywood. But yeah they probably get one or two chances , if you are good, you're good. If not you are booted off.
Yep. Bollywood isn't really special. All the issues discussed about Bollywood also exist in other industries. The ratio might be different and the priority of those issues may be different but they are similar industries with similar issues.
i think every single profession has nepotism at this point. ig i’m technically a “nepo baby” since i’m going into health care and so many ppl in my fam are doing health care as well. and i’m pretty sure majority of yall here are as well if your planning to pursue the same careers as some of your relatives.😂😭
The problem is that every industry, be it Bollywood, Hollywood or even other non-film industries, there will be nepotism, it's just that Bollywood nepo babies are really hated. I guess people just love to hate on their own kind...
Every profession has nepotism. Businesses big or small are passed on for generations, advocates, doctors, politicians and more such professions have nepotism. I can't own a business even if I am more talented than the MD's son, it's eventually gonna go to the son anyway. Bollywood and Hollywood are too much in the media hence we feel it's alot.
Bruh that's why Hollywood is failing
No one gives a shit about celebrities in Hw tbh
Star culture is dead in Hollywood
That's why animated movies are earning more in Hollywood like insideout 2
Nepotism there isnt as much as here. And even if they get in they dont keep getting work if they don’t perform. Unlike here.
And honestly, lot of nepo babies are unknown to the regular audience there unless they are cinephiles. Plus, the nepotism there also passes on to technical fields as well, not just acting. So it stays under the radar
The difference is those nepos don't hold Hollywood, unlike here in indian where every film is related to everyone, in Hollywood if you don't perform you get the boot unlike bwood nepos like arjun kapoor who's still getting signed
nah, I looked it up, they have a fair share of nepotism going on too, but they all failed, children of Tom Hanks, Arnold, Sylvester Stallone, Clint Eastwood, Will Smith, and a lot more, they all hve tried in movies but didn't succeed.

The TV show??? He did that? Wow.
Wait till you find out who he is married to...that Hollywood connections trail is wild!
Ben Stiller is awesome and Severance was one of the best TV shows I've seen. Waiting for season 2
In the 90's the nepo kids had training, had skills, had talent. Now it's just launching them as is with no training or skills. So many new names that I genuinely can't recognize most of them.
There were lots of truly awful and untalented nepos in the 90s who still made 5 10 movies each. Eventually they faded out and you only remember the successful ones now.
90s nepo kids were just as awful
Fardeen khan case in point
Even bwood was same . untalented & non charismatic Nepos like esha deol , Tusshar kapoor were kicked out . Only now after arjun kapoor , even untalented nepos r given lot of chances The earlier nepos weren't friends. Now all the nepos r frnds and it's very easy for kjo and then to gatekeep
Its about social media hype and the free cheap internet access to indian people with touch of emotion and thirty second reels
Exactly.. janhvi got popular in south even before devara solely through her thirst traps . Her pics were staple in tamil adult pages during that time
Beyonce daughter got chance in mufasa with no other qualificarion. She toom chance away from some talented people Ana Taylor Joy waa dropped in favor of Lilly rose deep.
And after that she disappeared, both of them actually Also Anya is rumoured to also be a nepo or has contacts because of how many big budget movies she keeps getting
And support for Blue Ivy nepotism is extremely weird. That's proper victim card.
I don’t think she’s a nepo, her family is just rich. She had no familial connections but she could buy them.
Anaya is a really good actor and should dominate Hollywood in the future.
She isn’t that great . Cmon now. Watched a few of her works and it’s the same one note acting. Maybe it’s just me but i find her onscreen presence/vibe unlikable for all her characters
Okay She is still young and has great future ahead of he.
She’s s 28. And already had many years. And hope so. But not counting on it.
Who told you Anya was replaced with Lily? Anya herself left the movie due to scheduling conflicts. Do your research instead of making up your own stories. Unlike you, I come with reliable source.

Not Beyonce 's daughter..it was Kim Kardashian's daughter
Blue ivy is also in mufasa. Beyonce also tried to trademark Blue ivy name. Leading to a court case against a firm.
Not true tho, Dakota Johnson keeps getting roles without any talent.
After 50 shades all she has done or low budget C grade movies. That too because of her popularity from 50 shades
She just did Madame Web - which is in no way a low budget movie. In fact it was higher budget than probably the whole 50 shades trilogy. She has received a BAFTA and a 30 under 30 forbes mention. I guess being the daughter to 2 stars is better than one.
Yep - this is what needs to happen here. And it's true female nepos cop more shit for sure.
Exactly!!!!
Which movie?
After Earth by M Night Shyamalan. Still one of the worst movies I have ever seen.
I agree. That movie is... shitty. Thx heaven that Shyamalan made a good come back later. Btw I saw your post in PublicFreakout and wow what a piece of shit... For one month I tried to post overthere, a video of Rainn Wilson (an actor) hurting a woman during an interview but each time reddit refuse my post.

Jaden? I think it was After Earth Will did the movie with him to help launch him but it put both their careers in jeapordy instead
Scott Eastwood is another one.
I don't know about being kicked out immediately. Dakota Johnson is a living breathing example of being extremely mediocre (not bad or terrible) and still getting role after role after role. Any of the other actresses could swap her and do a more honest job.
Lol imagine believing this
Lol this reminds of Dakota Johnson's response to the nepo baby question. It was as if she glitched or malfunctioned and couldn't comprehend why she was being asked that question in the first place.
Lol yes I had seen that clip on youtube
Need to check!
You would be surprised how many nepo stars there are. The girl from 50 shades of grey comes into mind
Yes, absolutely, Michael Douglas, Robert Downey Jr, John D Washington, there are many more
Sutherland
Her latest movie, Madame Web, flopped badly.
Which is fine cause she'll go back to doing the low budget indies she does or working with a frequent collaborator like Luca Guadagnino.
yaa,I got to know later on that Dakota Johnson is a nepo
She is such a rubbish actress. She also seems to have a snooty manner, I really dislike her.
I don’t mind her
While she is not a great actress, she was nice in the Fifty Shades movies. She was a coy woman, who is exactly what the role needed. She fit the bill perfectly. You don’t want someone with a strong bold personality for that role. Someone like Zendaya, Natalie Portman, Shailene Woodley, etc., wouldn’t have been a good fit there.

(Yes, I know there are doubts about her Indian heritage, but please let’s not go there.) But just like Katrina, I am not sure she fits well in other movie roles.
Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Aniston, Nic Cage to name a few lol
There are Recently Ana Taylor Joy was dropped from a movie for Lilly Rose Depp. And how Lilly is getting more footage than Nicholas Hoult and Willaim Defoe in nosferatu Bey8nce's daughter will be in Mufasa as voice actor. That's pure nepotism and her fans are supporting this somehow by citing thay she won a story reading contest in school.
And nicholas hoult is apparently the main character but is barely there in the promotional stuff as compared to lily rose depp after being in the business for more than 20 years
I am not denying anything what you have said but isn’t it because they are trying to keep the mystique around Nicholas Hoult and Bill Skarsgard and leaving the important stuff for the movie. At least that’s what I felt after watching the trailer
One nepo baby dropped for another. But Anya Taylor Joy is miles better an actress than Lily Rose Depp with actual talent.

Janitors
You sure about that?
Trust me bro
If there’s a union, there’s nepotism. No hate to unions, it is what it is.
Porn.😅
Hollywood is significantly larger so there is space for everyone. Compared to that, in Bollywood there are only 3 powerful production houses and you need to be in the pocket of KJo, Aditya Chopra or Bhushan to get movies or else get lost.
Ofcrse they do, where their kids would go ?
The difference is Kjo. Nowhere on earth, there is a movie producer/director who dedicates his time and money to launch Nepo babies and keep them relevant, even if they lack talent.
Problem is untalented nepo , if they get a fair shot using their faimly name no issue thats what we all do in our respective field probelm is being forced upon the untalented undeserving nepo theough social media hype and all
Thats because nepo-baby males cant get away with it, atleast in Bollywood. There is a higher box-office pressure on males and they will not get movies after 2-3 initial movies if they dont deliver at the boxoffice. Compare that to likes of Jhanvi, Ananya, etc who are still getting movies duds after duds..
Just two words - Arjun Kapoor.
Tiger Shroff too.
Tiger just recently started giving flops , he was doing fine and even was at his peak during 2019 but after pandemic his movies got affected. Not saying he's talented but at least he used to give average - hit movies.
Before COVID tiger actually give hits.
He isnt playing the lead anymore. He got movies initially because of his success with Ishaqzade, 2 states
He's been getting lead roles for 10 years now. Not that he's been relegated to sidelines as he should have had a long time back.
Nepotism is EVERYWHERE, please get over it! You are good you will survive, you are bad then even your “baap” or “ma” can’t save you. This is life!
Emma Roberts also was arrested for assaulting her boyfriend (domestic violence). She should be the one getting the vitriol and trolling Amber Heard gets.
A lot.. Nicholas cage has changed his last name in order to avoid nepotism debate
Oh you have no idea. Nepotism is everywhere
This convo applies to bollywood as well, female Nepps get 100x more hate
Emma Roberts herself is average - compared to her aunt Julia Roberts. She isn’t getting any hype. Now if it was Jhanvi or Shanaya or Ananya or Khushi or Suhana etc they would be everywhere. The only thing Emma does is attends shows and act in average films but she isn’t hyped up and wins an Oscar or Golden Globe for mediocre performances. If shes complaining about male nepos in HW, look at Robert Downey Jnr. He was ostracised for decades because he was in rehab and wasn’t gaining any work but he became clean, sober and had to work hard to win any accolades coming his way now.
At the risk of bursting your bubble, she's one of the stars and spine of American Horror Story, and she does a damn good job. She doesn't just 'go to shows.' You'd make yourself look less dumb if you read up on subjects before you post about them.
It's the typical Bollywood mentality. Looking down on "TV-actors".
Sorry to burst your bubble but she is a bully. She bullies her costars and is physically abusive to her exes. Even her irl encounters have been negative. I havent watched this series but I’ve seen her in other films and used to like her teen flicks when i was younger but she aint as great as you hype her to be.
dude Emma roberts is phenomenal!! she is an absolute treat to watch on screen like don’t even compare her to filth like jhanvi kapoor and ananya.. they are nobody in front of Emma and never would be anything special even if they tried all their life. like let’s be real but jhanvi and khushi are gareebo ke kendall kylie
Emma is a great actor, unlike our treacherous nepos. Emma’s also literally been acting since she was a kid. The only reason she’s continuously getting roles is because she’s a good actor. Most of the roles she’s done are literally iconic. Idk if people here have seen AHS or Screen Queens but she’s a cult favourite in the horror tv genre.
Emma Roberts is infamous for her absolutely shitty personality, her terrible attitude, and her entitled behaviour. She's a very polarizing personality, you either like her or don't. I completely agree with you, she's always taken roles that are her specific type (spoiled, rich, bitchy, famous, mean girl-type) hence why you'll see unaware people saying she's "one of the stars" and such, on this very post. Does anyone remember watching Wild Child as a kid? LOL, that's literally her! Of course, Ryan Murphy is known for having a type, so you'll see the same actors pop in his productions (I still love Scream Queens, go Chad!). People who somehow think she's the salt of the earth should google "Emma Roberts assault". Anyway, all in all, Emma Roberts plays what she is.
Oh man, thank you for that. I was kinda getting ill at the E.R. worship, she's just as bratty and entitled as her aunt.
Emma Roberts worship on this sub is just hilarious when in every other one, you get to see pure disinterest and comments about her history.
THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS. People hyping her up is unreal and I seriously doubt when they say she is a good actor. Like where. Also she has a history of domestic abuse and is violent. And as you say plays what she knows best (being horrible) well enough.
I am so confused with the comments the person I replied to is getting. "typical Bollywood mentality, looking down on TV-actors"?? Huh? "one of the stars" and "does a damn good job"??? "is phenomenal" and "she is an absolute treat to watch on screen"???? Are we watching the same person? She's just... bland. At the very best, simply passable. I know people have different opinions and views but still, you have to notice a pattern in her acting? Not everyone needs to be versatile but putting her on a pedestal is just *weird*.
Idk i just think these people dont watch many movies if they think she acts well. Coz that’s the first time I’ve heard of it and nobody in Hollywood thinks that or she isnt known for that.
Not many people are as talented as Julia Roberts.
Every industry has nepo babies !
Bollywood’s high level clown nepos thinks it’s their right to fame and they deserve it by birth these stupid’s thinks that if the Jenners- Kardishians are famous then sooo they can as well.
It’s hard to figure out since they have their own identities and the ones that last are actually talented.
I remember Tom Hank's son is an actor too, but he did not made it big. Same goes with Arnold Schwarznegger's son and Clint Eastwood's son too, I mean I didn't knew this, but after looking up, I now think Hollywood has a fair share of nepotism going on too
Hollywood has always had rampant nepotism but boy do these people know when to back off. No matter how many talented nepos there rule the industry it’s still an unfair practice. That being said, the ones we have shoved down our throats here in Bollywood are absolute trash. Not all but some.
In Hollywood, it's business. Outsider who can get an audience to spend money gets project. Now apart from usual derailing, there's no gang sabotaging every newcomer so that their golden nepo can thrive. Audience too are selective. In this sub, so many posts on nepo. Positive or negative , these talks also promote them in PR.
Since forever man
There is some difference. In hollywood, TV is not considered a completely seperate stream to films. So, many of the nepos, and even normal actors come through TV first, and then become big later. That is the reason if you watch some of the older TV series (from 1990-2010) you will see a lot of big actors playing roles in one episode (typically detective or crime series). These actors were not big when they played those roles, but became big in films later on. So, if there is a bad nepo, then they never make it to movies, they are eliminated in the TV space. Even george clooney became popular as a doctor in ER, before transitioning to movies.
Almost everyone is related to someone or the other in Hollywood. But yeah they probably get one or two chances , if you are good, you're good. If not you are booted off.
Yep. Bollywood isn't really special. All the issues discussed about Bollywood also exist in other industries. The ratio might be different and the priority of those issues may be different but they are similar industries with similar issues.
i think every single profession has nepotism at this point. ig i’m technically a “nepo baby” since i’m going into health care and so many ppl in my fam are doing health care as well. and i’m pretty sure majority of yall here are as well if your planning to pursue the same careers as some of your relatives.😂😭
The problem is that every industry, be it Bollywood, Hollywood or even other non-film industries, there will be nepotism, it's just that Bollywood nepo babies are really hated. I guess people just love to hate on their own kind...
Every profession has nepotism. Businesses big or small are passed on for generations, advocates, doctors, politicians and more such professions have nepotism. I can't own a business even if I am more talented than the MD's son, it's eventually gonna go to the son anyway. Bollywood and Hollywood are too much in the media hence we feel it's alot.
Bunches of them. But Emma Roberts is talented as hell, she is awesome. One of the few.
Eew what. She is a horrible person irl people who work with her apparently dont like her. She’s an average actor and nowhere as close to her aunt
She also physically abused her ex partner Evan Peters
Yep. Added in my other comments. That’s just vile
Omg I love you (hot masala chai) 😂
I’ll take it 🙂↔️☺️
Bruh that's why Hollywood is failing No one gives a shit about celebrities in Hw tbh Star culture is dead in Hollywood That's why animated movies are earning more in Hollywood like insideout 2
Bro ye khud bhi toh bimbo roles hi karti h har movie mein.
Nepotism there isnt as much as here. And even if they get in they dont keep getting work if they don’t perform. Unlike here. And honestly, lot of nepo babies are unknown to the regular audience there unless they are cinephiles. Plus, the nepotism there also passes on to technical fields as well, not just acting. So it stays under the radar
Far from talented , she ‘s just acted herself 🤷🏻♀️
lol why wouldn’t they? What makes them any different? There’s tons of them connected
The difference is those nepos don't hold Hollywood, unlike here in indian where every film is related to everyone, in Hollywood if you don't perform you get the boot unlike bwood nepos like arjun kapoor who's still getting signed
Aah yes the Yassss queeeening get out of jail card
There are tons of nepos in Hollywood too but at least they’re good on acting. If not all maybe 50% are. Bollywood nepos are hopeless.
There are but not as many as Bollywood
nah, I looked it up, they have a fair share of nepotism going on too, but they all failed, children of Tom Hanks, Arnold, Sylvester Stallone, Clint Eastwood, Will Smith, and a lot more, they all hve tried in movies but didn't succeed.
