Maude Apatow is weighing in on claims she’s a “nepotism baby.”
In a cover story interview with Porter, director Judd Apatow and actress Leslie Mann‘s oldest daughter touched on the discourse regarding her status in Hollywood, how it was achieved, and how she navigates it. The 24-year-old explained:
“At first I was sad…”
To which the interviewer asked:
“Because it felt like people weren’t judging you on your talent?”
Maude acknowledge her privilege, responding:
“Right. And that’s fine. I try not to let it get to me because I obviously understand that I’m in such a lucky position. A lot of people [in a similar position] have proven themselves over the years, so I’ve got to keep going and make good work. It’s so early in my career, I don’t have much to show yet, but hopefully one day I’ll be really proud of the stuff I’ve done by myself.”

We got to see a more dramatic side of the young star in HBO’s Euphoria, and we’re interested to see what she offers in the future.
