Jamie Lee Curtis Slammed Over SAG Awards 'Nepo Baby' Comment

Many on social media tore her apart for it.

She's become so tiresome.

Why are her tits at waist level? Is she in mourning for something?

by Anonymousreply 2February 27, 2023 3:42 PM

No one was really even thinking of her in the whole nepo baby conversation, because she's proven herself and has had such a great career. She basically transcended it by virtue of her achievements, a la someone like Carrie Fisher.

But then she kept harping on it because of whatever insecurities she has, and here we are...

by Anonymousreply 3February 27, 2023 3:42 PM

I don't think this is about her insecurities, she's just trying to cater to the woke mob that keeps harping on about "privilege" in an effort to rack up some extra votes for the Oscar race now that the Ampas membership is more diverse.

R3 that’s false. She is in the talk. She had a studio contract before ever actually acting. That’s due to her parents being stars. She won’t admit it but it’s the truth.

Just read the article and the heading is purposely misleading! It gives the impression that Jamie Lee took an aggressive stance on her "Nepo Baby" status and said that people should just "stop whining". This isn't true.

Her actual comments were more passive-agressive. She was attempting to poke fun at her "Nepo Baby" status. But her whole speech was her way of explaining that despite it, she still had to work & pay dues.

Jamie Lee is in fact losing more & more of her marbles on a daily basis as of late but she said nothing wrong here.

R11: Aware of sorry.

by Anonymousreply 12February 27, 2023 9:33 PM

R11, I think you're correct. And I say that as someone who just defended her at R9. Jamie expressed her true resentment about being labeled a "Nepo Baby" in a recent episode of the podcast "Depresh Mode". I can't remember her exact comments and she's too tiresome for me to relisten to the whole podcast, but she definitely came across much more aggressively on the subject.

Regarding the podcast, I found her honesty & seeming lack of superficiality refreshing. She lost me when towards the end of the podcast she broke down while reciting prose.

I want to slam the word “slammed!!” Sick of it.

Her speech was terrible. She was trying to be ironic (i think), but instead came out as passive aggressive, hitting a lot of false notes. I did not have a bad opinion about her, but in the last few months it has been bad theatrics one after the other.

Totally insufferable

She’s great and I hope she gets the Oscar.

She will be the most insufferable person ever if she somehow wins the Oscar

by Anonymousreply 18February 27, 2023 11:19 PM

No, she'll have seen the mess she was at the SAGs and she'll pull it back a little for the Oscars.

I don't mind Jamie Lee, she's fine. I know the Trans-hate mob is always badmouthing her for no reason and out to get her now. I tend to cut her way more slack because of that.

It just seems weird when an AARP member refers to herself as a baby.

She did admit it. She called herself a Nepo Baby as others have called her.

The thing is that in recent years she's gone off so much about "Show off business" and the shallowness of it. About how she's had enough privilege and rewards and doesn't need anything else. About how she hates dressing up for red carpets and fashion in general. She's admitted that being Janet Leigh's daughter helped get her cast in Halloween, which got her career rolling.

I get she probably never thought she would nominated for an oscar. But geez, it's like she's completely changed her tune on everything over the last few months. I don't understand these actresses who get a whiff of awards recognition and its like they lose their minds.

The other thing is that everything has to be so PROFOUND for her as well. You won an award, you didn't cure a disease.

I still think Angela will win though. I think JLC would literally sob and scream her way through her acceptance speech.

Curtis won the SAG award, which is often a barometer for an Oscar win since your peers vote for both.

I wish Christopher Guest would make a showbiz mocumentary called "Nepo Babies," with Parker Posey parodying Jamie Lee.

Christopher must be hoping she wins the Oscar so he can dump her endlessly needy, tiresome, male ass.

She’s so dumb. Because she is just making herself the face of nepotism. When people like Michael Douglas, Charlie Sheen, Angelina Jolie should have owned it eons ago.

People need to learn from Beyoncé Knowles Carter and never respond to shit.

Why is JLC so thirsty? Hard to believe this is the same woman who moved to Idaho or Iowa (or one of those vowel states) to raise her family.

[quote]She had a studio contract before ever actually acting. That’s due to her parents being stars. She won’t admit it but it’s the truth.

Didn't she just talk about that last night? I swear I just read that she said she had a seven year contract at 18 years old because of her famous parents and got fired three years in. And that it was a blessing in disguise because then she was cast in Halloween and that's when her career really started.

I don't think she feels personally offended or attacked by the "nepo baby" comments. I feel like she's trying to defend a whole generation of young actors who are always being called "nepo babies". And there are some GREAT nepo babies out there. I love Zoey Deutch. She looks so much like her mom who I still adore that I feel like we got a bonus Lea Thompson.

I'm way more worried about nepo babies like Don Jr. and Ivanka. I could care less about the (very likable) Maya Hawkes and Zoe Kravitzes. As long as they're doing good work, let 'em keep working. If they suck, cut 'em loose.

And I don't understand the JLC hatred that popped up here suddenly. We never talked about her before (unless it was to say she's a hermaphrodite). She's talented and fun to watch.

It's just one obsessed troll. The same troll that starts all the other hate threads against anything or anyone related to Hollywood. He runs multiple threads into the ground or until he tires himself out and moves on to another victim.

by Anonymousreply 51February 28, 2023 8:17 AM

Doesn't bother me. However you measure the success of her career she hasn't done what she's done based on the public's loyalty to her parents. In that line of work, in the end, you sink or swim on your own talent and popularity.

Careers always involve some kind of luck. Nepotism is just the best and easiest kind and if you get it, lucky you.

Nepo baby is or was a cool phrase of the moment amongst the kids, that's why Jamie (who appears to be extremely online) used it. And with that, it's officially peaked. I think nepo babies are actually proud to be in that club, their outrage is fake.

Nothing the world hates more than an older woman who says what she wants and won't be cowed by the Twitter mob. What's funny is how many of the Twitter mob are on DL. Stupid lemmings.

I do truly believe the grouchy defensive replies on JLC threads could well be Jamie herself. She would totally be on here, up early in LA at her laptop with coffee like us other olds.

by Anonymousreply 57February 28, 2023 1:11 PM

I remember reading a few years back where Jane Fonda finally admitted (or it dawned on her) that while she used to claim that her career was all on herself, she has now (finally) realized that starting out, she got "meetings" with people for roles because her last name was "Fonda"!!!

Imagine that!!!!

At her advanced age, she finally acknowledged that getting a meeting was the first, important step in getting a role. And that she got those meetings, because she was her father's daughter. While other actresses, who did not have that advantage, never got the chances that she sailed into. (So, of course, it was not a level playing field.)

Finally, Jane, a thought entered your cranium.
