The universe of nepo babies has a new star: Carys Zeta Douglas. The daughter of Michael Douglas (78) and Catherine Zeta-Jones (53) managed to eclipse her famous parents on the red carpet of the Cannes festival with her modeling skills and the aplomb of a celebrity. She posed like a professional, surrounded by mom and dad, who looked at her with rapture.

Carys, 20, dazzled at the opening of the contest, which this year has awarded her father with the honorary Palme d'Or for his entire career. With a low-cut white dress with transparencies by Elie Saab and a high bun, all eyes fell on her leaving in the background her mother, Catherine, who is still splendid (she showed it with a vertigo neckline) but who is already noticed some touch-ups. Carys is not as sexy as mom at her age, nor has she inherited her dazzling beauty (she looks more like the Douglas), but she is beautiful, thin and has a skeleton of top model like Victoria Federica, our most famous nepo baby.

The girl has already made her first steps as a model in the United States, where her parents walk her through photocalls with her brother Dylan (22), but in Europe she was practically unknown. Until now.

We still do not know if Carys wants to dedicate himself to acting, but it would not be strange having those surnames capable of opening any door. At the moment she studies fashion in New York, appears in magazines by the hand of her mother (she was the cover of the Spanish edition of Vanity Fair in September) and has made her first steps in music. In fact, the American media present her as a singer and underline her splendid voice.

On her Instagram account, with more than 200,000 followers, she can be seen with the band The Honky Tonks in a bar in Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland, emulating Lady Gaga and her Shallow, the Oscar-winning hit of A Star is Born. Her mother was quick to congratulate her with a message in which she shows her amazement at the musical gifts of her child: "Carys!!!!! It's amazing! I wish I had been there. I love you. Have fun baby." The band's singer, one Sibbi, responded to the actress: "Yes, Catherine, your daughter was amazing. I'm Sibbi, the singer of the band and we play Shallow every night with different guest singers. Carys has been one of the best we've ever had." It's not the first time Carys has shown off her singing talent (a clip of her performing a cover of Bonnie Raitt's I Can't Make You Love Me garnered hundreds of likes). Also, he plays the piano. A gem.

She is the perfect daughter. In addition to cute and talented, it is known that she has not given any displeasure at home. Neither does his older brother, Dylan (22), who has studied politics but also wants to be an actor. Another nepo baby?

Nothing to do with Cameron, who, at 44, has already made the protagonist of Basic Instinct a grandfather of two granddaughters. Michael's firstborn, the result of his first marriage to Diandra Luker, has been the Douglas' headache for many years. Addicted to cocaine and heroin, he was sentenced to five years in prison for trafficking methamphetamines. He continued to work in prison and fell three more years. He left in 2016 and has not relapsed.

Three years later he published a book, Long Way Home, where he talks about his addictions and his childhood, so different from that of his half-brothers, under the gigantic shadow of his father and grandfather Kirk.

Among other memories, those parties at the family mansion in which he made him distribute joints among his guests. Or the day he found out his father was addicted to sex. Those were different times. And he was never a nepo baby.
