Billie Eilish was made for Grammy and Oscar-winning glory.But don’t get it twisted — it’s not because she was a nepo baby.That was the claim that the internet was making after a clip recently went viral of Eilish’s mother, Maggie Baird, appearing in a 1999 episode of “Friends.” But Mama Maggie rejects that notion.“I think it’s hilarious,” Baird, 65, told Glamour in a cover story for their new “Women of the Year: The Moms” issue also featuring the mothers of Beyoncé (Tina Knowles), Selena Gomez (Mandy Teefey), and Travis and Jason Kelce (Donna Kelce).“Because that came out, and it was like, ‘Oh, Billie is a nepo baby.’ And I’m like, ‘Did you know that I got that episode of ‘Friends’ because I was about to lose my health insurance?’ ”Baird had already acted in the soap operas “Another World” and “As the World Turns” as well as other TV series such as “L.A. Law,” “Picket Fences” and “Chicago Hope” before she got cast in the Season 6 episode of “Friends” titled “The One Where Joey Loses His Insurance.”But despite sharing screen time with Matt LeBlanc, Baird notes that she was hardly on the same level as the “Friends” stars.“My husband and I are working class actors,” she said of Patrick O’Connell, father of Eilish and her producer/co-writer Finneas.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic For much of 2024, it seemed clear enough that the contest to win the 2025 Grammy award for album of the year came down to a three-way contest between Beyoncé, Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift. But as summer gave way to fall, an album that came out all the way back in 2023 surged forward to look like an equally strong contender for the ’25 trophy: Chappell Roan’s insurgent “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess.” As our possible usurper might say, “Good luck, babes” — it’s all but officially a four-woman race to claim that prize now. With the first ballot having gone out to Grammy voters on Friday morning, Variety is forecasting the likely nominees in the Grammys’ top four all-genre categories.

Kevin Smith has revealed that he tried to cast his daughter Harley Quinn Smith in his new film but she refused citing nepotism as the reason.His latest film, The 4:30 Film is a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age movie.According to a synopsis: “During the summer of 1986, three 16-year-old buddies spend their Saturdays sneaking into movies at the local cineplex. When one of the guys invites the girl of his dreams to see an R-rated film, all hilarity breaks loose as a self-important theatre manager and teenage rivalries interfere with his best-laid plans.”In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Smith opened up about wanting to cast his daughter for the lead role in the film since his wife – Jennifer Schwalbach Smith – considers Harley to be very similar to her father but when asked if she was interested in the role, the actress – who previously starred in Smith’s 2016 film Yoga Hosers and 2019’s Jay And Silent Bob Reboot – she declined the opportunity.“She was just like, ‘You don’t think I’ve got enough nepo baby shit to deal with online? You now want me to play you? Fuck that,’” Smith told the outlet.
