Emma Roberts CALLS OUT George Clooney During Nepo Baby Argument

Emma Roberts weighs in on the 'nepo baby' debate on 'Table for Two' by adding George Clooney's backstory to the discourse. The late actress and singer, Rosemary Clooney, was George's aunt, while his dad, Nick Clooney, is a prominent journalist and TV host. As for Emma, her dad is actor Eric Roberts and her aunt is Julie Roberts. Emma argues women get much more heat for being nepo babies than men do.

A nepo baby calling out another nepo baby.

George Carved His Own Way…

[@ankahbello1327]

Just the fact that you can get an audition it's a huge advantage

[@joeyslab9404]

Lots of whining about absolutely nothing

[@costalangel20]

Nepo babies do get a leg ahead of everyone & they can suck yet STILL get rolls. Her failures aren't the same as others bc her family can make a call for her, then use that. Would she be where she's at TODAY if not for HER famous family?? She needs to honestly answer that... then look in the mirror. There's nothing wrong w that, but be honest that thathelped you.

[@Kanoog]

FACTS - The issue isn't that she is a Nepo baby, it's that she doesn't acknowledge it as being a HUGE advantage. Jack Quaid during a interview even said it himself, how he is fortunate to be in the position that he is in with a famous father. Julia Robertso - Academy Award, a BAFTA Award, three Golden Globes, and a Screen Actors Guild Award and has received numerous award nominations makes a call about her niece. NOW Emma is known as Julia Robert's family member in the community. OHH yeah, that isn't a factor huh Emma, you did it all on your own. Like The Boys "Girls get it done"

[@dope5476]

There is something wrong with being a nepo baby if you deny you got a hugh advantage. Otherwise only sometimes wrong. If it was only purely about talent there wouldn’t be so many nepo babies doing so “well”. It is also about who you know, do you fit in and know the culture.

[@adelaferreira4575]

At the end of the day,they can be anybodys children,but if actors don’t have the talent ,they certainly won’t make it,look at Michael Douglas older son ,and other famous actor children ,some have the talent and some others never will !

I get it, if I was a big influencer of an industry, I would invest in people I know and give opportunities to them as well(it's not to say I would give to others too) and there are celebs who are truly talented and have come from no where.

[@jargraroch3000]

Because guy nepos are mostly boring, and George especially, considering his political lunacy.

[@zerogamerx1087]

Ofc a nepo baby will say they aren’t a nepo baby. Also i don’t think Clooney was a good example to call out he because he really isn’t one yea he had a famous aunt but I don’t think that got him far to become a nepo baby. A famous nepo male would be RDJ

[@cristinaapariciolinale2119]

The thing is some lean into it and accept that they have an advantage and those are usually the ones that succeed because they’re not entitled brats. Actors like Maya Hawke, Jamie Lee Curtis, Riley Keough own that they are NB and are amazing actors! I just watched inside out and Maya killed it as anxiety and Riley Keough was amazing in basically everything she has done!

[@Kanoog]

Besides Jack Quaid, he straight up admits to having a massive advantage but he also said he works hard with the position he is in. He doesn't go around saying "Oh yeah, my famous as fuck dad had nothing to do with getting work in HOLLYWOOD"

[@jayl983]

I called out Timothy Chalamet all the time

[@pikebishop8516]

​@@PureSparkles22they all have connections. Back in the day, actors came from the working class. Al pacino, brando, keitel, rourke, connnery, Caine, Richard Harris, Burton, hopkins etc... The flavor changes.

@@PureSparkles22 he is a nephew of husband-and-wife filmmakers and producers Rodman Flender and Amy Lippman, so lets try to defend him not being a NEPO baby again, but this time try to think.

[@mindynickels57]

I’ve looked at actors kids becoming actors as being in the family business. Lawyers kids become lawyers, doctors kids become doctors. What is so surprising about children following in a life they live? Give it a rest people, their success is theirs, no matter how the door got opened!

[@cristinaapariciolinale2119]

You do know that doctors and lawyers study many years to get a degree right? A call from mommy or daddy doesn’t give them the diploma. Smh

[@mindynickels57]

@@cristinaapariciolinale2119 So? Those doctors and lawyer parents make plenty of phone calls on behalf of their offspring. They make movies about it. Perhaps those children of actors will play one of those characters.

[@anthonyb9451]

It's funny because when I tell my friends Emma is related to Julia they have no idea because she is so good...probably the same for George

[@Kanoog]

I don't see why that's "funny" what's funny is Emma acting like her famous aunt had no impact on her getting work. That is the biggest punch line.

[@arontamas5639]

Emma's good but not as much as her auntie or her dad. I love her indie movies tho I think she really nails them especially in Blackcoat's daughter!

[@jchawkenspoet3099]

Nepo baby is someone getting a job not because of merit but because they are famous for being the child of someone famous; nobody knew Georges's connections when he was coming up as an actor; he got to where he is through merit.

[@nad9695]

She did not call out Clooney. She gave him as an example, being in the industry for so many years and nobody "accused out of jealousy" him or any other actor. Its another stupid trend thta begun woth social media, putting down children and especially daughters for having chances in their lives

[@costalangel20]

The moment she used his name as an example, she called him out.... the Nepo babies that deny their advantage of famous family members help ARE the ones getting called out more, not the ones that acknowledge it helped them

[@Lfly7]

Honestly I don't mind the nepo babies like who cares 🤷‍♀️❤

[@Jprager]

Of course Miss Entitled is going to make it a gender thing. George has had a longstanding career in a completely new century. Rosemary Clooney wasn’t known by the later 80s to 2000s in mainstream cinema. So that argument is invalid. I don’t see any know Male Actors in the industry who’ve had their leg up because of parents or family? Anyone?

[@IaneHowe]

Wonder way ? Funny, no one calls a veterinarian child that followed in dad's footsteps and go work in dad's business. Or doctors or lawyers. Yet for an artist, it's a crime.

[@Erg-tk2ln]

Yup. If I ever become successful, I’m going to make sure my kids benefit from it first before any rando.

[@cristinaapariciolinale2119]

Yes, they should be called Nepobabies because they are and as far as sons not being called that she’s nuts how about Ben Platt, jack Quaid, Jaden Smith, Colin Hanks and the list goes on….also some nepobabies have talent like George and some are whiny talentless hacks like Emma who mistreat their fans and beat up their boyfriends…no comparison!
