Hailey Bieber On Being A Nepo Baby

Hailey Bieberhas never shied away from her privileged background as the daughter of a well-known actor. Intending to address the ongoing discourse surrounding her status as a “nepo baby,” the renowned model chose to wear the controversial top. In an interview, she explained that her decision was not intended to mock the term or boast about her privileged position, but rather to openly acknowledge and embrace the reality of her upbringing.

“The nepo baby T-shirt was just meant to be my little comment on the whole discourse that had been going around. And, you know, my point to having worn the T-shirt was not to poke fun at it or be like, ‘Yeah, I’m a nepo baby’ and haha type of thing. It was more so to be like this is what everyone is saying, and I want you to know this is my way of responding to it and my way of acknowledging it — in a way that is so overly literal that it’s like, ‘I’m just going to call myself a nepo baby because I am one and I embrace that I am’.”

Hailey Bieber On Netizens’ Reaction

Amid the controversy surrounding her choice to wear the “nepo baby” top, Hailey Bieber acknowledged the mixed reactions from fans. In her candid response, she expressed her frustration with the ever-changing expectations and relentless scrutiny of the internet. Hailey emphasized that no matter what she does or how she addresses the issue, it seems impossible to satisfy everyone. While some fans appreciated her openness and humor, others criticized her for not being nepo enough.

“To me, the way the internet is, nothing is ever enough. So, it’s like, I do that, and half of the people find it funny and they get the humor behind it and they got it. And then half the people are like ‘Well, you’re not even really a nepo baby like that much.’ I’m like, ‘So you’re going to sit there and call me a nepo baby all day long but then I acknowledge it and then I’m not enough of a nepo baby?’ So, it’s like, there is never any winning with the internet. And that’s what I’ve always time and time again realized.”
