O’Shea Jackson Jr has joined the “nepo baby” discourse, saying that his career “was up to him”.
A debate about the children of celebrities and their privilege erupted after Vulture released an exhaustive guide to the Hollywood “nepo-verse”.
Now, the son of actor and rapper Ice Cube has entered the chat, saddling both sides of the argument.
“My dad told me in a perfect world, I would play him in Straight Outta Compton. I was already in college for screenwriting at USC,” Jackson Jr wrote on Twitter. “I accepted the challenge. And auditioned for two years before getting the role.”
Jackson Jr made his film debut portraying his father in the 2015 crime drama.
“After that it was up to me, he couldn’t hold my hand through my career,” he continued. “I had to get my a** up and make it work.”
Family first. May everyone who reads this, blaze...

The person who dies in this week’s Evil is not the person I expected would die in this week’s Evil.
I was sure Grace was going to go gentle into that good night, especially after her interaction with Sheryl at Kristen’s birthday party. But I definitely did not have “Monsignor Korecki as stealth badass” on my End Times Bingo Card.

Evil Season 3 Episode 9
Evil, season 3 episode 9 “The Demon of Money” is an installment in motion. It begins in the therapeutic aftermath of a horrific incident and ends on a stunning, violent cliffhanger at the cost of a regular character, who we appreciate far more after the sacrifice.
The episode begins in Dr. Boggs’ (Kurt Fuller) office, where Kristen (Katja Herbers) is having a session on the traumatic scene she witnessed at the end of “The Demon of Parenthood.” All the audience saw of that grisly outcome was Kristen’s reaction to it, and that was enough to supply the terror to the ghastly horrors out of view. “The Demon of Money” supplies several reaction shots, often in tangent with the gore, which are as effective at pushing buttons as any of the frightening images.
It is very satisfying to see Kristen deal with the events of the previous installment,...
