Nepotism has been a constant in Hollywood, but 2022 was the year that every up and coming celebrity seemed like a nepo baby. It sparked a lot of talk, this realization: some people say these A-listers are getting off too easy, and others say they are talented and hardworking in their own right. These are the nepo babies that everyone’s asking to see. Do you think they deserved the limelight?
Hailey Bieber
When people think of Hailey Bieber, some just think of her as a model, but almost everyone recognizes her because she’s married to pop star Justin Bieber. And Hailey didn’t marry into fame, she was born into it. She is part of the famous Baldwin brothers clan, her father, Stephen Baldwin, and most famous member of the clan, Alec Baldwin (Hailey’s uncle).
At around the age of 18 the model started her career, and she is still going strong today. Recently, Bieber made her feelings about the current debate known, by sporting a tshirt that said ‘nepo baby’ on it.
Michael Consuelos
Michael Consuelos started acting at a young age and is now most famous for playing a younger version of his father’s character on Riverdale. While the casting choice makes perfect sense, the public is still pretty worked up about it.
With actor Mark Consuelos as his father and talk show host Kelly Ripa as his mother, Michael is definitely a nepo baby. That being said, the young actor did have to audition for the role, just like everyone else.
