Everyone talks about famous "nepo babies" these days. Have they taken their parents' talent? Which famous parent do they look like, giving the audience a sense of nostalgia?

John Mellencamp Wants His Son to Continue Living With Him
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee John Mellencamp, doesn't have to worry about providing for his family. The 74-year-old father revealed on the podcast, "Joe Rogan Experience," that he gave unusual parenting advice to them. "I'm the only father in the world that does not encourage their kids to work," he said, then laughed. "It's like, what do you want to go to work for?"
Of course, his children didn't take his advice. His son, Hud Mellencamp, graduated from Duke, but that didn't change the "Jack & Diane" singer's opinion. "Do what you want to do," he continued. "You're 31 years old, you're handsome." Mellencamp said his son still lives on his property in a different house. "It's nice," he admitted. "I love having him in there." The father knows his son is considering entering the workforce.
The rocker also talked about being close to his other child. "I do have a daughter that's really sick," Mellencamp told the host. He was referring to Teddi Mellencamp, who was formerly on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. "And she's suffering right now. But that kid used to call me up, and I'd go, 'Teddi, you can have a thought without asking me,'" He laughed at the comment.
The rocker said he loved having kids and is glad he took his father's advice to have many kids for when he's older. They keep him company as he's sadly losing friends. He claimed in his interview that he's still shocked at the success of his career and is grateful.
