Celebs And Their Parents At The Same Age – That’s What We Call Good Gene Inheritance
Nothing can set you on the fast track to being a celebrity quicker than having a famous parent. Even if the birth was followed by a slew of controversies and perhaps the demand for a DNA test, it certainly wouldn’t matter. At least, not in this age where every decision from hair products to plastic surgery attempts are motivated by the star-studded look of celebrities. They certainly didn’t need mom or dad to get their foot in the door; perhaps because they look like mom or dad emerging into the world. And with Hollywood routinely handpicking its finest since times past, there is no greater convenience than looking like a famous person – not even if your parents stocked up on enough trust funds to take care of your retirement planning from birth. Just ask these folks.
Scott Eastwood & Clint Eastwood At Age 30
Clint Eastwood may have enjoyed tremendous attention in his day, even amassing an enviable net worth by being one of the most sought-after actors at one time. But Hollywood was not so generous to his son, Scott Eastwood; and daddy was certainly in no hurry to give him some pointers on gaining international repute. So thanks to an incredible jawline, undeniable talent, and the overall striking resemblance, Scott has already started making ripples in the star system. The actor worked his way up from nowhere to being Little Nobody in The Fate of The Furious. As it turns out, all he got was enough anyway.
Sidney Poitier & Sydney Tamiia Poitier At Age 42
By the time Sidney Potier was his daughter’s age, he was already doing extraordinary things. After playing in the Lilies on the Field film in 1963, he became the first black actor ever to win an Academy Award, and one for best actor, no less! Speaking of someone as legendary as Potier is, the apple doesn’t seem to have fallen far from the tree. His daughter Sydney Tamiia Potier appears to be doing great for herself as well. She has appeared in series like Chicago P.D., Homecoming, and, most recently, Carter.
Max Winkler & Henry Winkler At Age 36
Much like his famous father, Max Winkler has developed an interest in the filmmaking industry from a young age. Henry, by the time he was his son’s age, was already able to win himself a Golden Globe for his participation in the Happy Days series of the ‘70s and ‘80s. Max, on the other hand, despite having given acting a shot, is more interested in being a director. As a matter of fact, he has directed films like Flower, Jungleland in 2019 and is currently working on the Last Summer movie.
Lily Collins & Phil Collins At Age 23
Phil Collins used to be and still is, one of the most influential and successful British musicians to this day. He used to tour a lot, and spend many hours in recording studios. At the height of his career, his super-cute daughter Lily Collins once admitted in one of her school essays that she missed him a lot However, she added that she forgives him for not being around. Perhaps she clearly understands how it was then because she’s now a celebrity herself. She’s already a budding actress in her twenties, and we have to say that she looks just like her father. Given the fact that Phil’s net worth is one of the biggest in the British music industry, inheriting money from her dad may well be one of the best things that could happen in Lily’s Life.
Heather Locklear & Ava Sambora At Age 20
Oh my! Just look at Heather Locklear when she was 20. She looks like a Greek goddess, with her blonde hair and alluring blue eyes. In her heyday, she was a head-turner wherever she went, and her one-of-a-kind beauty has made her really rich, and of course, she’s now enjoying the dividends of a much successful career. It’s no surprise that her daughter, Ava Sambora, is the stuff of dreams as well. The stunning young celebrity has followed in her mother’s footsteps, pursuing a modeling career. She’s still a student at the Loyola Marymount University, but we bet her credit card already has a high limit.
Kate Hudson & Goldie Hawn At Age 25
It should come as no surprise that the stunning Goldie Hawn, made some beautiful babies in her day – case in point; Kate Hudson. The Award-winning Hawn rose to stardom following her feature in the CBS comedy, Good Morning World, and has maintained star status for over three decades while appearing in multiple films. And while Hawn is now faced with the concerns of aging, her daughter Kate Hudson did well to inherit both her mother’s stellar talent and gorgeous looks, and followed in her footsteps to become an internationally renowned actress. Hawn has been recorded to say that she is unwilling to make a movie with her daughter – but in the light of their mutual funds so far, it is easy to see how they can turn down juicy offers without batting an eyelid.
Maya Rudolph & Minnie Ripperton At Age 29
Singer,-songwriter Minnie Ripperton stunned the world with her smash hit Lovin’ You in the ‘70s, but despite only knowing her mother for seven short years, Maya Rudolph managed to inherit her mother’s beloved stage prowess. Ripperton could be heard audibly singing “Maya” at the end of her hit song Lovin’ You, but that would, unfortunately, be the closest they get to performing together. But considering you need a DNA test to tell these two apart, we could say that they are always together anyway. That is, despite the fact that Maya can’t hit the same notes as her mother – and prefers to make people laugh.
If it weren’t for a chin dimple, we would never be able to tell these two apart, and they even starred in a movie together! Click Next to see for yourself.
Michael Douglas & Kirk Douglas At Age 30
Everyone agrees that the 2003 movie, It Runs in the Family which featured three generations of the Douglas family was a gentle reminder that you should have parents whose traits you can be proud to inherit – not that you have a say who your parents are though. Kirk Douglas set the precedent for his son with an incredibly successful career as an actor, spanning nearly seven decades and passed them to his son Michael Douglas. The son seems to have inherited everything from his father’s dashing good looks to his apparent immunity to age-associated hair loss. Five decades after his debut, Michael has also passed on the torch to his son Cameron, who doesn’t look quite capable of staying on the straight and narrow. But, no pressure Cameron – just be yourself.

Apple Martin & Gwyneth Paltrow At Age 13
Although Gwyneth Paltrow comes as one of the most notable names in Hollywood together with her husband Chris Martin, the couple always gave their best to keep their children away from the spotlight. Paltrow only recently shared a photo of her daughter on social media in honor of her 14th birthday and we can see that Apple did, in fact, inherit her mother’s astonishing looks.

Ray Nicholson & Jack Nicholson At Age 26
It’s hard to follow your parents’ footsteps, but when your father is one of the most celebrated actors in Hollywood, it’s almost impossible. Ray Nicholson has a lot to live up to, maybe that’s why he treads the yellow brick road of Hollywood with baby steps. Though his father is still praised for his majestic acting talent, Ray has expanded the family business by working both as an actor and assistant director, probably taking some personal loans from his parents. His smile is a sign of good inheritance and we hope that soon he’ll take that famous grin all the way to the bank.

Gwyneth Paltrow & Blythe Danner At Age 30
When Primetime Emmy Award and Tony Award winner Blythe Danner began her acting career in the ‘70s, she didn’t think that it would be highlighted by reproducing one greatest actress the world has ever seen. Gwyneth Paltrow passed the ultimate Hollywood DNA test, by managing to inherit all of her mother’s stellar talent and then some. While Danna boasts an impressive filmography along with her pivotal role in environmental and health care activism, Paltrow created GOOP and is a vocal women’s and children’s rights activist. And despite aging rapidly, Danner and her daughter are quite inseparable, often caught in matching outfits and coming to each other’s defense when the need arises.
With a name and a legacy like his, no wonder this guy followed in his dad’s footsteps…
Ziggy Marley & Bob Marley At Age 35
Even if Bob Marley passed away way in the early 1980s, his legacy and music still live on to this day. David Nesta Ziggy is one of the older children of Bob who can actually be mistaken for his father since they share similar facial features and hairstyles. Ziggy wanted to follow in the footsteps of his father who is a reggae icon so he later founded his own band named Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers. Quite remarkably, Ziggy has also used a part of his earnings to put up an organization named Unlimited Resources Giving Enlightenment. His charitable organization aims to help numerous children in need.

Ben Stiller & Jerry Stiller At Age 39
Ben Stiller can credit his chiseled good looks to having not one, but two celebrity parents. Between Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara, Ben Stiller ranks tops on the Hollywood DNA test scoreboard, and with Jerry Stiller being a legend in the world of comedy, Ben Stiller had a lot more than just a juicy net worth and enviable real estate to inherit – and he sure did. In the light of this, it comes as no surprise that these two are breathtakingly similar and it only makes sense that both father and son have been cast side by side in films such as Zoolander, Heartbreak Kid, and Heavyweights, Ben is doing quite a job of living up to his parents’ legacy, and there surery is no stopping him.

Georgia May Jagger & Mick Jagger At Age 25
With a career spanning nearly five decades and a reputation as one of the most influential acts in rock and roll, it suffices to say that English born singer/songwriter Mick Jagger needs no introduction. Towing the path of her father, Mick’s daughter Georgia May Dagger seems on the fast track to international repute in her career as a fashion model – that is, despite inheriting her father’s unique looks; apparently, Mick looks great both as a man and a woman.

Jake is currently 36 years old and has appeared in more than a dozen movies already. Just like his father, he does work behind the camera as a director and writer.

Rashida Jones & Peggy Lipton At Age 30
Rashida Jones and Peggy Lipton are arguably the queens of cult television; and with the gorgeous former model and actress setting the precedence for her daughter, it is clear to see how they seem to function in such synchrony. Rashida Jones did not inherit her mother’s gorgeous locks or make the cut as a model, but the actress, producer, and singer can proudly hold her own, career-wise. The mother-daughter duo appeared in Angie Tribeca as well as in a 2015 Verizon commercial.

Alexander Skarsgård & Stellan Skarsgård At Age 35
If you thought Stellan Skarsgård was phenomenal in Good Will Hunting, Thor: The Dark World, and Cinderella, then you’ll be glad that someone like Alexander Skarsgård was available to inherit those gorgeous eyes and smoldering good looks (and quite conveniently, without the age-associated hair loss). And we must say that Alexander Skarsgård seems capable of easing into the part – his roles in Straw Dogs Tarzan and True Blood clearly bear credence to this fact.
Sure, her dad left her a tormented past, but his name is heritage enough for this wild beauty…
Frances Bean & Kurt Cobain At Age 24
Kurt Cobain will forever be one of the legends in the music industry because he was the man responsible for bringing together the band, Nirvana. Frances Bean Cobain is Cobain and Courtney Love’s daughter who didn’t pursue a career in music, and instead, followed her passion for modeling and visual arts. Kurt Cobain had a tragic past with depression and drug addiction. He passed away in 1994 after escaping from rehab and taking his own life. From the life that he had led until the end, we doubt that the inheritance of Frances gave her enough to last her a lifetime.

Carrie Fisher & Debbie Reynolds At Age 23
Before her passing in 2016, Debbie Reynolds gained international prominence for her work as an actress and singer, even taking strides as a businesswoman. But her biggest achievement (some may argue) is being a mother to American actress and writer, Carrie Fisher who followed her mother’s lead to becoming an internationally renowned figure in Hollywood. She went on to inherit quite a few other perks and enjoyed a robust career, and net worth before her tragic death on December 27, 2016. Tragically, her mother Debbie died one day later.

Between Janet Leigh’s memorable performance in Psycho and her daughter’s stellar performances in a slew of horror movies that earned her the title ‘Scream Queen,’ you do not need a DNA test to tell that these two are of the same bloodline.

Her mother, Carrie Fisher, who inadvertently happened to be a daughter to Debbie Reynolds, blazed the trail as a successful writer and actress but died in 2016 following a cardiac arrest. Then her mother’s demise was shortly followed by the death of her grandmother – Debbie Reynolds. The odds notwithstanding, the 25-year-old has managed to hold her own so far, gaining fame for her role in Scream Queens and American Horror Story: Cult.

Liv Tyler & Steven Tyler In Their 30s
Steven Tyler gained international fame with an astounding career as a singer-songwriter and instrumentalist credited with co-managing the popular rock band, Aerosmith. Despite their striking resemblance, it is unclear if his daughter Liv Tyler managed to inherit her father’s singing talent. However, she managed to put what she inherited to good use – debuting as a model in her teens, only to abandon it for acting in the ‘90s. Between these two, there should be enough trust funds to keep generations unborn out of poverty for a few decades – centuries even.
Bronny James – Lebron James’ Son – Basketball Player & Student
To many, Lebron James is currently the best basketball player to play the game. His recent transfer to the Los Angeles Lakers was every sports magazine’s first topic, and it also brought him a lot of money. Could his son Bronny be as good as his gifted father is? Bronny, now 13, plays for the North Coast Blue Chips, a team which participates in the Amateur Athletic Union. Already able to dunk, his skills are easily seen, and there are plenty of YouTube videos showing what he’s able to do on the court.

Lily-Rose proves that if anybody can inherit the gorgeous looks of their parents quite seamlessly, it is her.

During her brief relationship with Johnny Depp, the former model gave birth to Lily-Rose Depp who followed in her mother’s footsteps to become a model and actress. While Lily has a long way to go in terms of career success compared to both parents, she can always rely on the assurance that if all else fails, there just might be a few trust funds with her name on it.
