Zoe Kravitz has recently expressed her feelings about being referred to as a 'nepo baby', following Lily-Rose Depp. They both come from famous Hollywood families.
Due to a TikTok trend, where many people have brought up the fascination with celebrities who blithely ignore how their wealthy and well-known parents have made it simple for them to exist in the industry, the topic of nepotism has been brought back up for discussion. Nepotism is referred to as the cause of these celebrities, or 'nepo babies'.

In an interview, Kravitz addressed the allegations that she was a 'Nepo baby', saying that the constant reminders that she was a beneficiary of nepotism had left her feeling "deeply insecure" about her success as an actor. Kravitz is the daughter of musician Lenny Kravitz and actress Lisa Bonet. It's "absolutely common for folks to work in the family company," Kravitz continued.
It's literally where last names come from, the Big Little Lies actor told GQ, "If your family was like the Black family, you were a blacksmith." Her father, Lenny Kravitz, had previously spoken with Far Out Magazine and had stated, "She has my utmost admiration. She did it herself, without assistance from me or her mother other than what she was exposed to and her upbringing."
Lily-Rose Depp, a nepo baby and the daughter of Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis, also spoke out about her fascination with her status.
People are going to have preconceived notions about you or how you got there, and I can undoubtedly affirm that nothing other than being the correct fit for the role will get you the part. "I find it strange to minimise someone to the notion that they exist solely due to a generational issue. Simply said, it doesn't make sense. You wouldn't say, "Well, you're only a doctor because your parent is a doctor," if someone's mom or dad is a doctor and then they grow up to be a doctor. "No, I went to medical school and trained.” she further added.
