Hollywood is just one of those places where it is much easier to succeed if you know someone. It certainly helps if these people are family. We have found that there are a number of celebrities in Hollywood who are actually related. While some of these familial relationships have definitely helped them with establishing careers in Tinseltown, we have found that many don’t. Sometimes families can only handle having one star in their midst, so those with similar ambitions better find something else to do for a living. Here is Fame10’s list of 13 celebrities that you didn’t know were related!
13. Rob Schneider and Elle King
While most of the time it is hard for new stars to distance themselves from the spotlight of their famous family, it actually took some time before anyone knew that actor and comedian Rob Schneider was singer Elle King’s dad. Schneider and former model London King welcomed their daughter in 1989, born Tanner Elle Schneider. When she decided she wanted to get into the entertainment industry she used the name Elle King and no one realized who the “Ex’s and Oh’s” singer’s famous father was. “I wanted to be myself. I am my own person,” she said in November 2015. “It’s not that I wanted to be a famous person. I wanted to be a performer. But I worked really hard and I did everything myself.”
