Gwyneth Paltrow is playing her parents’ role in making her a big star.
The 53-year-old, who is the daughter of actress Blythe Danner and film producer and director Bruce Paltrow, says she is the real Nepo Baby.
“I was exceptionally lucky that I was given opportunities early on, probably partly because I’m one of the original Nepo Babies,” Gwyneth joked, “but I’d be lying if I said it paved my way.”
“There were moments when the industry made it clear that women were expected to stay in their box, be modest and quiet and, above all, be one thing. And I’ve never been very good at being one thing,” she added,
This comes just days after Paltrow thanked mom Danner for her endless support.
“Mom, you showed me what it feels like to be completely dedicated to an art, to be extremely creative and brave in your choices on stage, and to carry yourself with such grace, even when sometimes this industry doesn’t make it so easy. So thank you,” she said.
