The one show - presenter is son of famous singer but what about giving my son a chance

[Neapolitanicecream]

I just wish there was a fair crack for all our sons and daughters to get theses opportunities 🤢

I was told by someone who use to work in book publishing years ago - everyone writes and/or illustrates children's books.

Most aren't any good and sink.

Even the bloody King wrote one when he was a Prince and I was a child.

Kate Moss has much better cheekbones than her daughter. The camera lens cuts through the chat.

It’s brilliant, my table was so wobbly due to having one much shorter leg everything slid off, but BB ‘s book sorted it out perfectly. It’s a stunning publication.

Lila miss is completely ordinary looking. No way would she have hot the gigs without her mother,

I don't believe anyone on this thread wouldn't help their kids out in their chosen field.
That's BS.

It must be hard to be kids of a celeb.
The Beckham's come to mind.
They're not even good looking enough to model.

Plus not every famous person is from a famous family.

Madonna wasn't,she worked hard.
So if that opens doors for her kids so what

Forgot about BB the artist! That was hilarious! What next Harper beckham the supermodel😂

🤣🤣🤣

Hes a chef now, and did a video making…a fish finger sandwich 😂 with dirty fingernails 🤮

BB's stint working with Rankin and his infamous book.

"Here are some Elephants, hard to photograph but great to see"

Bless him

Her hair?? What’s wrong with her hair? I’d have thought her height was a bigger impediment

Like the beckham kid who made
Money from modelling but totally average looks

If it helps balance it out, my dad could have opened significant doors for me in tv production and instead I work in finance.

My husband had 0 contacts when he started working in music and built a career through hard work, networking and ability.

Madonna worked damned hard, and was lucky, and picked her boyfriends very carefully in her early days. My exH rehearsed in the same building, around the same time. She succeeded. He is a telecoms engineer!

You need to be able to talk spontaneous shit for a few hours, the shit you talk about needs to change daily for 2 to 5 days, and you must not get embarrassed when you realise you know SFA about a very popular topic.

Lots of people freeze when they have a mic shoved on front of them and have to talk for 2 minutes. So they wouldn't be able to do it 10 times per hour.

It’s been like that for the last twenty years 🤷‍♀️ My best friend works in media and she would complain about the ‘new’ trend of reality stars getting all the jobs. Nowadays it’s ‘get on a reality show and get an ITV deal’ or even more insidious ‘get on a reality show because your a celeb kid and get an ITV deal’.

I agree with OP. Regular kids don’t get a look in despite media studies and hours of internship.

I don’t think radio would be easy actually.

What kind of work experience does a doctor's child enjoy?🙄 A bit of light surgery on a weekend??

I'd presume that children of talented people inherit talent so they would be already ahead of the game.

Kate's hair is much more wavy with lots of potential of styling, Lila's not so much, hers is completely straight and not as full. I think Lila is more beautiful than her mum though just not as great hair.

Is it just me or is Lila Moss quite short. So is Leni Samuel - Heidi Klum's daughter. I'd be very annoyed if my mother was a glamazon and I couldn't even reach the top shelf to get the jam.

I’d say Kate was much more beautiful and unique looking. Being a super model is just a quirk of genes and even parentage doesn’t guarantee it

@JudgeJ yeah very true! At least he's going though!

I think luck certainly plays a part but she wouldn't have been so successful if it was just that.

Someone mentioned Helena Bonham Carter upthread (aristo connections). I always remember years ago when she bleated in the press about how hard it was in acting to be pretty and from a rich background compared to being working calss - loved Kathy Burke's retort

Kate moss is not very tall. Not more than average, but she has a genius talent for wearing clothes.

Op, I have noticed this too.

Nepotism is rife in the UK. I'm certain Charles only got the sovereign gig because of his famous mother.

Oddly none of the people I know who work in TV and are successful did media studies.

They did other degrees and chose their institutions well. They also either have parents/an older relation who lives in Greater London they could live with mostly free or their family has money.
