As I delve into the fascinating world of Hollywood, I can’t help but marvel at the intricate web of connections that bind these stars together. Take Alexander Skarsgård, for instance, who caught the acting bug from his father, Stellan Skarsgård, a veteran in blockbusters like The Avengers and Thor. It seems the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree in this family!
For some, life in the spotlight is a family affair.
In the world of Hollywood, there are some surprising connections between families, ranging from distant cousins like Lenny Kravitz and Al Roker to the father-daughter pair Eve Hewson and Bono.
Hewson, star of “Perfect Couple,” opened up about her experiences growing up as the child of a rock legend. This included having a celebrity-packed phonebook at her disposal. Having a well-known father offered unique advantages, such as ramping up ordinary teenage antics to an extraordinary level—like playing harmless pranks on Justin Timberlake, known for his hit “Sexyback.
In a 2021 interview with “This Morning,” the actress admitted that she occasionally seizes opportunities presented by her circumstances, such as when she was younger and decided to play a prank. Specifically, she took her father’s address book and attempted to make funny calls. However, instead of reaching random individuals, she ended up speaking with Justin, whom she then asked trivia questions from the back of a cereal box.
Notable father-daughter celebrity duos also include “Ex’s & Oh’s” singer Elle King and former Saturday Night Live cast member Rob Schneider, Parks and Recreation actress Rashida Jones and legendary music producer Quincy Jones, as well as Lily Collins and multi-Grammy Award winner Phil Collins.
As a devoted admirer, I’d like to draw attention to the heartwarming mother-daughter relationship between Zoey Deutch and Lea Thompson, the iconic star of “Back to the Future.” I believe that Zoey plays a significant role in Lea’s journey through the limelight, a fact for which I hold her in high esteem.
Lea stated to TopMob News in March 2022 that she believes Zoey is a remarkable and resilient individual, given the challenges she has overcome. She also expressed admiration for how skillfully Zoey and her older sister, Madelyn Deutch, have dealt with the entertainment industry.
Similar to Zoey and Madeline, there are a few other celebrities who often shine together with their siblings. For instance, Jonah Hill from Superbad and Beanie Feldstein from Booksmart have a family background in acting as they form quite the comedy duo. Notably, Robyn Lively, known for her role in Teen Witch, and Blake Lively, famed for her work in Gossip Girl, are half-sisters who share the same mother – Elaine Lively, a talent manager.
However, unlike some famous individuals who maintain celebrity within their immediate family circle, the familial connections of certain celebrities require a bit of exploration. Genealogist Dr. Adina Newman, also known as My Family Genie on Instagram, recently uncovered an intriguing claim: Gypsy Rose Blanchard and the former cast member of Vanderpump Rules, Stassi Schroeder, are alleged to be related, tracing their connection back to their paternal grandmothers’ lineage in the 1600s.
