Yahoo Lifestyle Andie MacDowell Says She's Experiencing 'Reverse Nepotism' Due To Famous Daughter
Andie MacDowell shared her own twist on the conversation around nepotism in Hollywood.
The longtime actor told Jimmy Fallon on Thursday’s episode of “The Tonight Show” that she’s experiencing “reverse nepotism” due to the fame of her daughter, “The Substance” star Margaret Qualley.
MacDowell, who starred in the 1993 hit “Groundhog Day,” has become what “they always accuse the children of,” she told Fallon.
“I’m now cool, because I’m Margaret Qualley’s mom,” she said, noting it’s a “double whammy” because she’s also mother-in-law to Qualley’s husband, music producer and “Bleachers” singer Jack Antonoff.
She added that she’ll find “letters in the mailbox” from fans, “and you know, they’re 13!”
Qualley herself has no problem acknowledging the leg up she got from having a movie star mom. The actor reassured podcast host Josh Horowitz earlier this month, “You can call me a nepo baby.”
