Emma Roberts pointed out that actors like George Clooney encounter less scrutiny over nepotism as she also reflected on her aunt Julia Roberts' career.

On the Table for Two podcasts, the Nerve star talked about how conversations about nepotism in the entertainment industry often focus more on women.

Roberts shared, “I saw very up close what that really looks like.”

She added, “It’s obviously fun and it’s great, but there is a part of it that’s really scary. So I’ve wanted to kind of carve my own path. … Fame has never been the goal, because fame at a certain level is kind of scary.”

“Even in my later teens, I was like, I never want my fame to outweigh my work,” the American Horror Story continued.

Roberts went on to say, “Because there’s nothing scarier to me than being so famous that you’re never left alone, but also you’re not getting good jobs. And that was kind of happening to a lot of people when I was in my teens and early 20s. I never wanted that to happen to me.”

She took a dig at George Clooney Robert said, “Everybody loves the kind of overnight-success story. And so if you’re kind of not the girl from the middle of nowhere that broke into Hollywood, there’s kind of an eye roll of like, ‘Well, your dad was this.’”

The Scream Queen star also mentioned, “I always joke, ‘Why is no one calling out George Clooney for being a nepo baby? [His aunt] Rosemary Clooney was an icon.’ I feel like young girls get it harder with the nepo-baby thing. Like, I don’t really see people calling out sons of famous actors, not that they should be called out.”

Concluding her argument, Roberts argued that those who condemn nepotism only witness your successes, because they see you when you're on a movie poster - they don't witness all the rejection you face along the journey.
