The term 'Nepo Baby' is constantly at the center of controversy in Hollywood. It refers to the critical view that children of famous individuals easily gain opportunities thanks to their parents' influence. However, there's an actor who has openly shared his thoughts on this issue: Oscar winner Matthew McConaughey.
He will be appearing in the upcoming Apple TV+ drama 'The Lost Bus' alongside his 17-year-old son, Levi McConaughey. Ahead of his eldest son's Hollywood debut, Matthew McConaughey has opened up about his true feelings on this heated topic.
The Line Between 'Entitlement' and 'Shame'
In an interview with People magazine (reported on September 24), he stated, "There’s a line between entitlement and shame."
He further added, "You look them in the eye and you handle it, and if it’s working, you’ll see that it’s a really thrilling roller coaster (this acting thing) is."
A Father's Heart for His Son
Along with Levi, Matthew McConaughey and his wife Camila Alves have two daughters, Vida (15) and Livingston (12). He revealed that while he tries to offer his son Levi some advice on navigating the world of show business, he also encourages him to forge his own path.
"It's hard to differentiate the real from the B.S. in a crazy world. But you gotta develop that intuition, that sixth sense, over time," the 55-year-old Matthew McConaughey shared, discussing the challenges.
How Should We View the 'Nepo Baby' Controversy?
Frankly, when I hear the term 'Nepo Baby,' I do wonder if it's truly a fair opportunity. However, listening to Matthew McConaughey's words makes me reconsider, realizing that it's not just about gaining opportunities because one is 'someone's son/daughter,' but also about the effort and challenges one must overcome within that context.
