The entertainment industry is the entertainment industry. It doesn't matter if Sabrina is a singer and the aunt is a voice actor. The aunt has MAJOR connections in the entertainment industry after working on one of the most successful TV shows in history for decades. ...not that it really matters tbh. What _really_ matters is if that nepo baby deserves a platform. Artistic talent is often passed down genetically so it makes sense that talented people have talented kids. Several of the Beatles' kids are amazing musicians and definitely deserve to have the careers that they have. They may have gotten it easy as far as the business side of things, but they still had to work just as hard as anyone else to learn their craft. The only time I see nepos as a problem is when the ONLY reason they got the job is because of family connections - and they're taking jobs away from people who actually do have talent and actually do deserve the opportunity. The other thing that's getting overused is "industry plant". Everyone likes to use that term but very few actually know what it means or how it works. Lol
I think this case is like Timothee Chalamet. No doubt he has talent, but his uncle and aunts are writers in Hollywood. Most likely they told him when auditions are opened, how to act professionally, who to brown-nose, maybe even met friends of his aunt and uncles, who "casually" mentioned he likes to act. I don't doubt that happened for Sabrina. It's just crazy how connected and closed off Hollywood is. Even if someone's not a nepo-baby, they usually come from a very rich family (or at least a well-off one, who gives them money when "they're homeless or about to be"), or they've been working since they were a baby.
do yall KNOW how iconic BART SIMPSON is?? nepotism is alllll about industry connections
If the aunt was part of helping her to get an agent or auditions, yes she's a NB, but many of our entertainers are and have been since forever.
