Gwyneth Paltrow Addresses and Defends the 'Nepo Baby' Label

Gwyneth Paltrow has spoken out against the term "nepo baby," stating that children of famous parents should not be judged negatively for following in their footsteps. Paltrow, herself the daughter of actress Blythe Danner and director Bruce Paltrow, believes there is nothing wrong with pursuing the same career as one's parents. She hopes her own children will feel free to pursue their passions without worrying about what others think. The term "nepo baby" gained popularity last year to describe the new generation of celebrities with famous parents, but Paltrow argues that the label is an "ugly moniker." Other celebrities, including Lily-Rose Depp and Zoe Kravitz, have also defended the idea of following in their family's footsteps.
