This girl takes the cake! Its painfully obvious that she would have never, ever been cast even in a tampon commercial if it weren't for her parents.
That sort of entitlement does fit with 'Girls'

shareI have no idea whether nepotism specifically got her started or how much her lineage got her auditions or helped her win roles. It could very well be that she might not have gotten a chance to start without her name because tons of very talented people don't win the lottery of the right breaks.
But the idea that she has only made it because of her name is patently absurd. Lots of famous offsprings/relatives don't make it or don't have great careers.
If you've seen her in only one role I could see you thinking maybe she's just playing herself (which isn't always easy to do well anyway), but if you've seen her in multiple things & aren't convinced she's pretty amazing you're not paying close enough attention. If you want to talk about people who wouldn't have a career without nepotism or name recognition look at people like Jim Belushi, Tom Arnold, Sinatra jr. etc.
She is a distinct & unique talent
Thanks for sharing, Zosia.

Judging by her god awful acting in Mad Men, I'm guessing she's either related to Weiner or some producer. Absolutely atrocious!
shareI adore her on "Girls" and threads like this are ultimate examples of closed minded envious internet trolls.
shareI'm sure she's a nice lady, but I don't see a lot to envy about her.
