15 Most Successful Models Who Were Born To Celebrity Parents

In a world that seems untouchable to all of us "normals", the lifestyles of the rich and famous can be of so much interest to us that we can't help but drool over all the tabloids and Hollywood gossip. We love to learn about what goes on behind-the-scenes of our favourite celebs and sneak a peek into their lives at home. And when it comes to home life, we also seem to be utterly fixated on following the lives of our favourite superstar's children.

Even though these celebrity kids have been born into a life of luxury and privilege and know nothing of struggle or sacrifice, we love seeing them grow up behind the lens of the paparazzi and learning about what kind of real life they lead while following their famous parents around the globe. Even though we can't get enough of the "baby bump" news and catching glimpses of those famous baby toddlers, we also love to watch these kids age and become their own people, especially ones who make a name for themselves and find success (even if their famous parents helped get them there in the first place).

While we can only assume that their families riches and fame helped open the door for them, we are still obsessed with the new careers that some kids of celebs have began, primarily in the modeling industry. Good genes and connections are everything when it comes to models, and that certainly is the case when it comes to these sons and daughters (and the fashion industry's up-and-comers) of Hollywood's elite.

15 Sofia Richie Is Stepping Out From Her Father's Shadow

With her star-studded family, Sofia is the daughter of Lionel Richie and sister to reality star turned fashion designer, Nicole Richie. She is also the god-daughter of fellow superstar, Michael Jackson. With the influence of fashion all around her, finding an interest in the biz became a natural transition for her after giving up on her true passion for music, as she believed she could never live up to her father. With a natural beauty, she signed on with a modeling agency three years ago and hit the ground running! She has worked with many high fashion brands, appearing in campaigns for Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Adidas, Michael Kors, Tommy Hilfiger, and Madonna's Material Girl line.

14 Presley & Kaia Gerber Have Modeling Chops Built Into Their DNA

If these names aren't ringing any bells, it's probably because they go by their father's last name, and not the name of their supermodel mother, Cindy Crawford. Presley and Kaia Gerber are the son and daughter of Rande Gerber, another former model. Of course, with DNA that destined them to be beautiful, these two teenaged siblings would rise to power among other top models in the industry. They have each carved out a name for themselves among fashion giants, with Presley walking runways for Moschino and appearing in campaigns for Dolce & Gabbana and Calvin Klein, and Kaia working with Teen Vogue and Versace. Together, they also appeared alongside their parents in a new campaign for Omega, the luxury watch brand that Cindy Crawford has worked with for nearly two decades.

As a young model, she's already caught the attention of major designer labels such as Burberry, and has become an ambassador for their Burberry Beauty line and has also become the face of its Essentials collection.With her British roots and handsome father, it's no wonder than this lovely gal caught the attention of the classic luxury fashion brand.

She's been showcased in the Mui Mui Resort Lookbook, and at only two years old, she appeared in Vogue next to her parents and brother.

Anwar is barely beginning his modeling career, but Gigi and Bella have become two of North America's most sought after women in the industry. Gigi has already earned the title of International Model of The Year by the British Fashion Council, been the face of Guess, brand ambassador for Maybelline, and has appeared in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.

11 Hailey Baldwin Is The Face Of Topshop

Daughter of actor Stephen Baldwin and niece to Alec Baldwin, Hailey is just on the brink of turning twenty-one, but she's already established quite a modeling career for herself.

She first walked the runways for Topshop the same year she was signed by the agency, strutted her stuff for Tommy Hilfiger, and has been in French Connection, H&M, UGG, and Ralph Lauren campaigns.

If the name didn't give it away, Patrick is the son of famous actor and former governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger. He is also the son of another famous celeb, Maria Shriver. He's also - perhaps surprisingly - the great nephew of John F. Kennedy, former president of the U.S. At only fifteen years of age, Patrick began his own clothing line called Project360, which centres around "socially responsible" fashion. His parents helped launch the brand, which has become very profitable and regularly contributes to charities. He's also been signed on with LA Models which has allowed this studly rising star to appear in fashion shows for Ralph Lauren and Armani.

9 Lily-Rose Depp Has A Mom With All Kinds Of Connections

At only eighteen, Lily-Rose has already landed herself a praise-worthy career in modeling and acting, taking inspiration (and incredible) genes from her former model-singer mother, Vanessa Paradis, and striking actor father, Johnny Depp. With Vanessa's connections to the Chanel brand - she was long considered the brand's "muse" and was a spokesmodel for the luxury fashion designer - her daughter was quickly "discovered" for her remarkable beauty and ability to inspire a new generation with her youthful glow. At sixteen-years-old, Lily-Rose landed a campaign for Chanel (a gig that many models could have only dreamed of) to model their Pearl eyewear collection, quickly became an ambassador for the brand, and even became the face of their fragrance, No. 5 L'eau. In February, she starred in a new campaign for the brand's beauty line. She's been public about her struggles with anorexia and is continuing to recover from the disease.

8 Kendall Jenner Comes From A Long Line Of Famous Family Members

Virtually the only daughter of Kris Jenner to branch out on her own and establish a life and career for herself outside of the reality star family is Kendall Jenner. While her connections in the industry may have been easier to come by than others, it was still no advantage as she had to really prove herself among other aspiring and veteran models. It didn't take long before big brands started noticing her and her reputation as both a professional and a great person to work with started to grow. Kendall has been working in the industry since she was fourteen, but it's been in the last three years that her work has really skyrocketed! Kendall has been lucky enough to model for Marc Jacobs, appear in Vogue, walk the runways as a Victoria's Secret Angel, become an ambassador for Estee Lauder, and strut the global catwalk for other designers during Fashion Weeks in New York, Milan, and Paris.

7 Brooklyn & Romeo Beckham Were Fit For Modeling The Moment They Were Conceived

When your parents are big-time celebs and heartthrobs, it's only natural that certain opportunities will be given to you. For newcomer models, Brooklyn and Romeo, their gift of being gorgeous was bestowed upon them by their parents, Victoria and David Beckham, former Spice Girl and hunky athlete, respectively. With a mother whose life purpose has forever revolved around high fashion, it's to be expected that these handsome brothers would be drawn to the industry. Brooklyn and Romeo have both modeled for Burberry, but they continue to pursue other talents, such as football, photography (Brooklyn), and fashion design (Romeo). Both young models are continuing their education and exploring other interests, but in the meantime they're working the runways and cameras part-time.

6 Sailor Brinkley Cook Is A Name That Will Soon Be Known Worldwide

If the name "Brinkley" is striking a chord as you read Sailor's full name, it's because you're probably thinking of the uber massive supermodel, Christie Brinkley; the successful model mom of this industry newbie. Sailor has only been around in the fashion and modeling world for a short time, but she recently appeared baring most of her bod for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2017 edition, an honour that she long hoped for since her mom was the first ever model to appear on the cover for three consecutive years. Sailor is now the first second-generation model to appear in the magazine, making her mom extremely proud and saying she's "out of her sandy footprints" and is making it "on her own". Aside from Sports Illustrated, Sailor has also appeared in Teen Vogue and has worked with the accessories chain, Claire's. FYI: she is also Ireland Balwin's roommate! Cute!

5 Jaden & Willow Smith Has Made Names For Themselves Outside Of Acting

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith - two major Hollywood celebs - have created extremely talented kids, including fellow acting and singing son and daughter, Jaden and Willow. These two have dabbled in many different artistic industries, from music and dance to modeling. Willow has appeared in various magazines, including Teen Vogue and T Magazine and was the face of Marc Jacobs in 2015. She also recently joined Kendall Jenner at the modeling agency High Society, so we're expecting many more modeling roles for this little lady Smith. Jaden is currently gearing up for the release of a new album, but just last year he was the face of Louis Vuitton's Spring/Summer collection. While the siblings are merely dabbling in the work for now, we're sure that many other brands will want to work with these beautiful and talented Smith kids.

4 Tali Lennox Might Soon Outshine Her Mother

Tali Lennox is one talented daughter of Scottish musical artist and activist, Annie Lennox, and Uri Fruchtmann. Earlier this decade, Tali stepped out as a new model and appeared in shows and campaigns for Prada and Mui Mui. She has also worked with Diesel, Topshop, Burberry, and Rag & Bone and was in Harper's Bazaar and Vogue. In 2015, she quit the industry saying that it made her feel "devalued", but has recently returned to star in an Agent Provocateur campaign. While Tali has worked on-and-off in modeling for several years, she's also found interest in other arts, such as drama and paint. She has found a particular knack and love for painting portraits, so she was focusing in on this skill while taking a break from the modeling industry.

3 Ireland Basinger-Baldwin Is The Family Member With The Most Modeling Experience

Another Baldwin who isn't a stranger to the runways is Ireland, a model whose parents are none other than Alex Baldwin and stunner, actress, and former model, Kim Basinger. For nearly four years, Ireland has been following in her mother's footsteps and has been building an impressive career for herself under contract with a couple modeling agencies. She's appeared in and on the covers of magazines such as Elle, Vanity Fair, and DuJour. She was even the "It Girl" for both W Magazine and Vanity Fair.

She is also an advocate for self-love on social media and encourages women to "accept what we've been given".

2 Zoe Kravitz Was Virtually Born To Be Beautiful

Before becoming one of the most talked about actresses to appear alongside Reese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman in HBO's Big Little Lies, Zoe began modeling at a very young age before pursuing a career in film and television. Daughter of singer Lenny Kravitz and actress Lisa Bonet, Zoe was born into fame. She got her start in modeling by appearing in various magazines, including Elle, but she was truly discovered when the brand Vera Wang named her as the face of their Princess fragrance in 2009, then later modeled for another one of their fragrance's, Preppy Princess, in 2011. She also modelled for fashion designer Alexander Wang and collaborated with Swarovski to create an ethnic/vintage-inspired jewellery line, later catching the eye of Alexis Bittar - another jewelery designer - making Zoe the face of the 2015 collection.

1 Dylan Brosnan Is Taking Fashion Tips From James Bond

For Dylan Brosnan - the son of former James Bond actor, Pierce Brosnan - it was a natural fit for the striking gent to pursue a career in modeling. With his build and chiseled facial features, it would have been a crime for him to not show up for the cameras to pose for campaigns and strut his lean frame on the runway. Dylan's career started just three years ago, but he's achieved remarkable success in such a short time. He was the face of Saint Laurent and had modeled for the brand on the stage for Paris Fashion Week for Spring/Summer 2015, has worked with Chanel, and has even modeled for Burberry. In additon to modeling, Dylan also loves music and has a band, Raspberry Blonde. So in addition to being ridiculously good-looking, Dylan also has other remarkable talents!
