Jamie Lee Curtis is known for her performances in slasher films like “Halloween” and its many remakes, earning her the title of ultimate Scream Queen, but she’s proven herself as a star who can act in many genres. Her earlier films, like “The Fog,” “Perfect,” “Blue Steel,” “True Lies,” and “Freaky Friday,” showcased Curtis’ wide acting range from a comedic star to a sex symbol and solidified her career. In 2023, she nabbed her first Academy Award for her stellar performance in “Everything Everywhere All at Once.”
Although Curtis has worked in Hollywood since the late ’70s, there have been a few conversations about whether her career was jump-started thanks to her famous parents. Curtis is the youngest daughter of actor Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh. Her parents came from the golden age of Hollywood, which was pivotal in filmmaking’s history. Born into Hollywood royalty, Curtis poked fun at herself for being the “OG Nepo Baby.”
In an Instagram post, Curtis defended herself and actors like her who come from famous backgrounds. “The current conversation about nepo babies is just designed to try to diminish and denigrate and hurt. For the record I have navigated 44 years with the advantages my associated and reflected fame brought me, I don’t pretend there aren’t any, that try to tell me that I have no value on my own,” she wrote alongside photos with her parents.
