In “The Year of the Nepo Baby,” Nate Jones wrote about the ­internet’s fascination with the children of ­famous people — ­accompanied by an ­exhaustive taxonomy of the Hollywood ­nepo-verse. The issue reignited the ­conversation about nepotism in the ­entertainment industry, and readers, ­celebrities, and some nepo babies themselves weighed in. The ­reaction was ­covered in the New York Post, Buzz­Feed, and Variety, among other outlets. Here’s a sampling of the many responses.
