The daughter of Academy Award-winning director Sofia Coppola, Romy Mars, has recently made waves on social media with a viral TikTok video. The 16-year-old found herself grounded after attempting to use her father’s credit card to hire a helicopter to meet a camp friend in Maryland from New York.
However, it wasn’t the failed attempt to book a chopper that caught the attention of over a million viewers; it was Romy’s musings on the topic of nepotism, delivered in her characteristic humor and wit.
In the video, Romy can be seen cooking while discussing her views on nepotism. As the daughter of famous parents, Romy is acutely aware of the negative connotations that come with being a “nepotism kid.” She shared that her parents have always tried to shield her from the limelight, and they don’t want her to be labeled as someone who only succeeded because of her family’s connections.
Romy also admitted that she didn’t know the difference between garlic and onion while cooking, which added to the humorous tone of the video.
It’s worth noting that Romy was grounded not only for trying to hire a helicopter but also for violating her parents’ rules of not having any public social media accounts. However, her candid and witty take on nepotism has undoubtedly made her a hit on TikTok.
In the video, Romy even showed off her father’s Grammy award, proving that her family’s fame and success don’t necessarily mean that she has a free pass to success. As she rightly pointed out, TikTok and other social media platforms won’t make her famous, and she will have to work hard and prove herself on her own merit.
