Hailey Bieber makes a fashion statement in response to the “Nepo Baby” debate

• Incorporating the current “nepo baby” discussion, Bieber’s ensemble included a black bag.
• Bieber is embracing it in her most recent outfit.
• Tom Hanks added his voice to the discussion by speaking to the news.

Hailey Bieber isn’t scared to stand out in the fashion world. The 26-year-old creator of Rhode Skin was caught in a parking garage on Friday while wearing a baby tee with the words “nepo baby” printed across the front.

Incorporating the current “nepo baby” discussion, Bieber’s ensemble included a black bag, a pair of blue trousers that had a retro feel, and of course, Bieber herself, Justin Bieber’s wife and the daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin.

The ongoing discussion about “nepo babies,” or children of celebrities or other business insiders who have benefited from their familial connections, recently gained momentum thanks to a New York magazine cover story that highlighted a few well-known figures in the entertainment business.

While Lily Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis have voiced their opposition to the slogan, Bieber is embracing it in her most recent outfit. When Curtis shared vintage images of herself with her famous actor parents Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh in December, she referred to herself as an “OG Nepo Baby.”

“I have been a professional actress since I was 19 years old so that makes me an OG Nepo Baby,” Curtis, 64, wrote. “I’ve never understood, nor will I, what qualities got me hired that day, but since my first two lines on Quincy as a contract player at Universal Studios to this last spectacular creative year some 44 years later, there’s not a day in my professional life that goes by without my being reminded that I am the daughter of movie stars.”

“The current conversation about nepo babies is just designed to try to diminish and denigrate and hurt,” she continued. “For the record, I have navigated 44 years with the advantages my associated and reflected fame brought me, I don’t pretend there aren’t any, that try to tell me that I have no value on my own.”

Tom Hanks added his voice to the discussion by speaking to the news about his work on A Man Called Otto and the “family business” of the entertainment industry, as reported by The Sun. Rita Wilson, Hanks’ wife, and their four children—Colin Hanks, Elizabeth Hanks, Chet Hanks, and Truman Hanks—share the actor’s spotlight in the business.

“This is what we’ve been doing forever,” Tom, 66, said. “It’s what all of our kids grew up in. We have four kids — they’re all very creative, they’re all involved in some brand of storytelling.”

“And if we were a plumbing-supply business or if we ran the florist shop down the street, the whole family would be putting in time at some point, even if it was just inventory at the end of the year,” the actor added.
