"No sixth cousins" Larry David and Bernie Sanders are literally sixth cousins.
Yeah, I just don’t get why “MsMojo” went out of the way to mention that in the opening and then went on to mention so many of the distantly related. Very annoying! 👍
You forgot to mention that Lilly Allen's father is a british actor Keith Allen
Liliy Collins is Phil Collins' daughter. I didnt assume they were related just because of their last names. She definitely got her voice from him.
Yep
Lily is also married to Malcolm Mcdowell’s son meaning he’s her father in-law
@@rockmacher I didn't know that. That's cool.
Lilly Collins is SO BEAUTIFUL!
Rappers & Producers Pharrell Williams and Timbaland are cousins
Jeez they didn’t explain how Nic Cage and Schwartzman are related, but Jason is the son of Talia Shire, “Connie” from Godfather and Coppola’s sister.
Yeah, but in my opinion Talia's most famous role is playing Rocky Balboa's wife Adrian in the "Rocky" saga.
Nic Cage's father is August Coppola, brother to Francis Ford Coppola and Talia Shire. Francis is Nic's uncle, and Talia is his aunt. Jason and Robert Schwartzman are Nic's first cousins from his aunt Talia. Sofia and Roman Coppola are Nic's first cousins from his uncle Francis Ford Coppola.
Rocky Movies also.
I didn’t even know that some of these people were celebrities!
SO true. I pay attention to the culture around me and I know who Taylor Swift is. Still can’t name a song by her, but I recognize her very easily. THAT’S a celebrity!
Like a Kardashian (they’re related to to husband/dad Robert but how many of us have any clue as to what it is that any of them actually do for work?), a celebrity is just KNOWN!
This is why I wasn’t disappointed when there was no mention of Mariska Hargitay (mom Jayne Mansfield, dad Mickey Hargitay). I don’t think folks just KNOW who she is that well. (A great comment, by the way!) 👍😊
I didn;t know that Gladys Knight was Aaliyah's aunt untill after Aaliyah died and she was married to her uncle Barry Hankerson which is how Aaliyah got her deal with R Kelly then later with Timbaland and Missy
Whaa!!?? thats so cool
Young Sheldon's Mom , Zoey Perry is the daughter of Laurie Metcalf from Rosanne
@@ART3MISOWLDid you mean of Sheldon's mum in TBBT? 😉
@@isabelmauricio6394 yes! Same lady Laurie Metcalf played Rosanne’s sister Jackie. And the Sheldon’s Mom in TBBT
@ART3MISOWL that is one reason she was chosen for Young Sheldon. She resembles her mother .
Emily Osment from Young Sheldon is Haley Joel Osments (6th sense) big sister
Who plays Mary Cooper in Big Bang Theory... yes mother and Daughter play the SAME ROLE
Rip Torn is also Zed in Men In Black
Marissa Tomei and Julianne Moore were on As The World Turns back in the mid 80’s.
Frannie and Marcy…I loved watching them back then along with the early days of Dustin Donovan and Lily Walsh.
Didn't know that M.C. Hammer was Gabrielle Union's uncle.
So, you say you're only counting really close relatives and aren't going to include very distant relations. Then you include multiple Finding Your Roots VERY DISTANT relations??? Don't get me wrong, I love those sorts of distant relationships. But if you're going to include them why go out of your way to say you won't???
Cousins are not "VERY DISTANT" relations.
@@MajesticalHonky the cousins found on Finding Your Roots ARE distant. They don't find first cousins. They find cousins so far removed that the only proof of a connection is DNA. If you are, say, 6th cousins you share great great great great great grandparents, more than likely from at least the 1700s or further back. That's distant. Saying cousins cannot be distant relatives is insane.
@@thomholbrook7286 First cousins are not very distant relations and since those were just mentioned as cousins and nothing was specified I assumed they were first cousins.
If it had been anything closer than third or fourth cousins, they would’ve said “hey let’s figure this out.” First cousins, they definitely would have made a big deal about it in the show. But I remember these episodes and thinking it was odd that Dr. Gates wasn’t clear on the degree of cousin.
@@letarogers6380 I haven't watched the show so I had just assumed it was first cousins since they didn't specify the degree so I appreciate your clarification.
*"People you didn't know were related" Ben Affleck and Casey Affleck, Chris Hemsworth and Liam Hemsworth, cmon I know you wanted to fill space but most of these are very known*
Don’t forget the third Hemsworth brother, Luke (known for the Westworld reboot).
@@Mittac001 *I know about Luke, I was just making fun of the list for using fillers*
How about the fact that Jennifer Grey is Joel Grey’s daughter, I don’t think many people know that.
Or (for us other “old folks”) Crystal Gail’s being related to Loretta Lynn? 🤔
Everyone knows about Jamie Lee Curtis
@@teresaw7886Yeah, I figured that’s why Emilio Estevez & Charlie Sheen (brothers & sons of Martin Sheen) weren’t mentioned. Or the Astin bros’ (Sean & Mackenzie) being the offspring of Patty Duke and John Astin (the original Gomez from “The Addams Family” tv show). Everyone knows these lil’ nuggets. If these aren’t well known, then I’m a monkeys uncle! 👍
Stacey Farber, who played Lea Thompson's onscreen daughter in "The Spencer Sisters", also looks like she could be Zoey's sister, since they all have identical facial features, and similar hair colours.
Neglecting to comment that Malcolm McDowell was the villain in Star Trek Generations may be unforgivable...
Agreed! He was the only redeemable part of that movie…
I met Denis at a fan convention, and he was a joy to talk to. Ewan couldn’t have a better uncle. Meeting Wedge Antilles is one of my favorite fan convention memories.
Two of Ewan McGregor’s daughters have ventured in to acting / music / modelling, and that is Clara and Esther.
You forgot Laurie Metcalf/Zoe Perry from TBBT/YS😊.
Carrie fisher princess lea is the daughter of the late debby reynolds aggie cromwell
Doesn't everybody know that?
Billie Lourd is also an actress and Carrie's daughter. She lost her mom and grandma in 2 days.
Emily Osment from Young Sheldon is Haley Joel Osments (6th sense) big sister
makes me sad ppl know her from young sheldon!! she stunned as lilly in hannah montana and as gaby in young and hungry!
Snoop Dogg and Brandy. Happy saturday morning, Rebecca, take care and God bless you. Greetings from Colombia to you as well
as well as former wwe wrestler and current aew wrestler mercedes mone fka sasha banks !!
Zoe Kazan and Elia Kazan
I remember Rip Torn from M.I.B
I never put together Al and Roxy Roker. Jeez.
Their fathers, both Bahaimian, were brothers. I always thought this was such a cool thing. It also means that Zoe Kravitz is Al's first cousin twice removed.
@@peabody1976Is anyone even gonna’ mention Zoey’s dad, Lenny? Not just being Roxy Roker’s son, he did have a top 40 song (“Are You Gonna’ Go My Way”) in the 80’s! THAT’S one I never saw coming when I first heard it “back in the day”! 🤔
Bathroom Booker & Rue Paul. I found that hilarious!!!!
What about Eric and Julia Roberts? Rae Dawn Chong, and Tommy Chong?
the title says "didnt know were related". I'm sure everyone knows about Eric and Julia
@@yvie914 But you never hear the media respond to them as brother and sister.
@@yvie914 I didn't. Never even heard the name Eric Roberts before. I just quickly did a Google image search. Wtf that's crazy,
I’m going to have to binge Scrubs one day.
Oh and don’t forget Ashley Tisdale and Austin Butler they’re cousins
Hailee Steinfeld True Obrien were cousins and Jake Steinfeld is Hailee's Uncle when he co-starred in Coming To America. Kaitlyn Dever is the daughter of former voice actor father Tim Dever from Barney And Friends. Madison Davenport is the sister of a actor brother Gage Davenport.
Both Jenny and Melissa McCarthy are funny! I loved the JM Show on MTV
Watching this video has made me realize that I read way too much celebrity gossip! I knew almost all of these already :D
Just discovered Sabrina Carpenter & Nancy Cartwright
What about Chad Smith and Will Farrell? 😂 those 2 have got to be related somehow🤷🏻♂️😂
Ah yes. Chad the actor and Will the drummer. hehe
I LOVE this kind of stuff!! Actor's connections to each other. I thoroughly enjoyed this video-keep em coming! I knew some of these already, but was especially was surprised that Elle King is the daughter of Rob Schneider. I would have loved to know more about the Marissa Tomei/Jullianne Moore relation.
I didn’t know Lenny and al were related 😂
Blayke and Robyn Lively deserve a mention
Moderately well known, but still worth a shout out:
* Jon Voight and daughter Angelina Jolie
* Goldie Hawn and daughter Kate Hudson
* Emilio Estevez and brother Charlie Sheen
Don’t forget about Oliver Hudson (Kate’s brother) from Rules of Engagement. Also Wyatt Russell, who is the half- brother of Kate & Oliver.
Jamie is true Hollywood royalty 👸
So interesting how I was looking at an article of related celebrities today. And MsMojo does this list 😅
How about Josh & James Brolin(Father and Son) James was in the original Amityville Horror and, Josh was Brand in the Goonies 💀 I guess, it's kinda obvious
The minute i saw William Mapother in this video, I saw the resemblance.
Didn’t know Snoop Dog and Brandy were related 😊 I knew about him and Mercedes being cousins but that was a another surprise 👍
"Caroline In The City" provided early roles to Ever Carradine (related to the Carradine clan which also includes her first cousin and close friend Martha Plimpton) and Mary Lynn Rayskub (who played a character named Chloe!)
Elle King doesn't want to be associated with Rob Schneider.
But she is his daughter and they have a close relationship so..
She did not want to use the name though to get in the industry!
@@Denis-89 And she has come out publicly saying she wants nothing to do with him so I do not believe they have a close relationship.
@@MajesticalHonky really? She said they have a healthy relationship now and that she loves him so much
@@Denis-89 Maybe come out from under your rock. She says he's toxic and this was just in a Vanity Fair article. You lie like you breathe.
True... she did say that, and they has appeared on stage at his shows, but now, as she's looked back on their relationship and his political views, she's distanced and disassociated.
Kiely Williams from the cheetah girls is sister of Michelle from destiny’s child
Wow Denis Lawson sounds so incredibly like Ewan McGregor!
Kevin Bacon and his wife are distant cousins and never knew until way after being married
Thanks for the short version.
Janelle monae and Marsai martin
Such powerful black queens
Tracy Chapman & Janet Jackson are cousins. I just found out watching a snippet of a Janet interview recently. If this is common knowledge, I sure missed it. I can’t unsee the resemblance now.
I just learned of this from your comment. I guess we’re too old to even know who Tracy Chapman is.
Janet’s got the whole family thing (plus still being on tv reruns of “Good Times”), but Tracy had the one huge, still recognizable, 80s hit. Maybe that’s why they didn’t say anything (hmm 🤔). Thanks, though. That’s a sweet little nugget! 👍
Dianna ross and tracy ellis ross...mother and daughter.
Which Tracy Ellis Ross reminds everyone, repeatedly.
In short, it’s all about who you know.
So, Edie and Kyra Sedgwick have nothing in common familialy with Andy Worhol.
Showbiz is like politics; everyone is intertwined. 😂😂😂
What about Brandon Lee and Bruce Lee 🙌🏻
Everyone and their dog knows about those two thanks for Brandon's death in The Crow.
@@Uncle_Smidge I’ve never known anyone who didn’t know Janet Leigh Curtis and Jaime Lee Curtis were Mother and Daughter yet it was still on this list 🤷🏻♂️
Fun fact Vera farmiga actually went to my high school and graduated 2 years after my mom. They had mutual friends
The parallels between Denis Lawson/Ewan MacGregor and Malcolm McDowell/Alexander Siddig are weird: 1) both are uncle/nephew pairs connected by a woman (mother of one and sister of the other), and 2) both pairs feature in the same sci-fi franchise (Denis/Ewan in Star Wars, Malcolm/Alexander in Star Trek).
Crazy...almost like the whole nepotism thing is real....
If anyone didn't think most people in this industry are related in some shape or form, they are living in a hole.
Well, there's that whole NCIS Donald Bellisario family... Troian Bellisario, Sean Murray and several other sibs and half-sibs.
Wedge was always one of my favorite Star Wars Characters. I wish Disney would do more Tales from Star Wars... like have ne based on Wedge, like from the nook on him and other people... I would suggest one for Mon Mothma, but we are kind of getting that with Andor
Please. 🙄 Everyone and their mother know Lily and Alfie Allen are brother and sister and about the song she wrote about him.
I was hoping to see something about the Dechshanel sisters Zoe and Emily.
Yeah, that was a bit of a shock. ‘Course, since the Deschanel’s (just to “razz” ya’, note the spelling!) share the same last name, maybe the creators felt it wasn’t that big of a surprise (see Sean and Mackenzie Astin). 🤔👍
@@JosephMartin-sj3kz haha I just winged it, thanks ! 😆
What was the ranking criteria?
For instance, why Snoop Dogg and Brandy are no.1 and Miguel Ferrer and George Clooney no.29?
I don't think it was ranked specifically. I think it was just thirty pairs of people.
I think you got mixed up over what is close relative Sedgwick and Tomie are both cases of way distant relations
MsMojo creators mention how they’re not gonna’ include such relations in the intro and then go on to do so almost immediately. Indeed very annoying! 👍😢
Honorable mention: Alan Parsons and Oliver Reed. Parsons’ dad and Reed were first cousins.
Lily and Alfie's dad is very famous in the UK
Interesting facts
Thank you.
No matter if it met the criteria.
Bernie S and Larry D being related is priceless. Larry has been imitating Bernue for years. Next to Jesus and Einstein, the two are two of the most famous Jews.
Who Do You Think You Are are UK and USA series like Finding Your Roots.
1. The UK series started in 2001
2. Some episodes can be found on YT.
3. Some shocking revelations undercover ed were having royal heritage. To me, it's the same as having slave owner heritage. Royalty just sounds better.
4. My favorites were Ian McKellan, Boy George, and Ruby Wax. For the last two, no champagne was toasted at their conclusions.
5. Once the British own someone, they own them for life. Soap opera and reality stars are generally more famous over there.
How were Richard and Robert Patrick related?
Uh. Martha Plimpton being the daughter of Keith Carradine (and thus part of the Carradine clan)?
Yara and Nas have similar eye shapes….they look similar as hell!
Emily Blunt's brother-in-law is Stanley Tucci. In-laws are not really close relatives. This relationship didn't belong here.
- but her brother is a famous singer. 😂
@@rubyredtootsies8371 ???? I don't know where you got your information, but Emily Blunt's only brother is Sebastian Blunt, an actor (not famous nor a singer). Besides the pairing presented was Stanley Tucci and Emily Blunt. If this is a joke, I don't get it.
@@erikshin-cj8shI'm guessing James Blunt, the singer.
@@isabelmauricio6394 Thank you. Now, I get it.😁
Kevin Bacon and his wife are distant cousins
Now there’s a ms mojo maybe the other mojo want talk as much.
It really is just one big club.
Louis theroux and Justin theroux
You don't have to convince me, you cut her hair off and she looks exactly like her brother 11:20
Veronica and Scarlett
I never heard of half these people
Sorry it’s H 20 (film is 20 years after first one) not H20 after water
I really thought Vera Farmiga was her mom not sister!!!!
😊
Its spelled "Leigh."
It disgusts me how many nepobabies there are in the entertainment industries, but then again those worlds attract the most dangerous and most deranged predators there are.
Especially when it comes to kids, I'm glad they have powerful families protecting them ... I just wish the arts had more fresh faces and ideas, inbreeding is never a good idea.
Jonah and Beanie have the same fucking face. No shit.
💌💌
Actress Paula Marshall's (20 years older) brother is ultraconservative Virginia politician Bob Marshall (Paula is quite "liberal")
What’s wrong with these Maga People? Someone else hit it out of the park by saying, ‘Stupid and Drunk is no way to go through life! That is so true!!
Snoop dog 🤮🤮
Heeey, anybody hear remember the beloved Actor named Bill Paxton who started in movies like Twister, Titantic, Apollo 13 and Tombstone? Yeah, mhm.... Remember when he died back in 2017? Yeah it was tragic but too bad both Mojo's NEVER talk about him and they should because he has a SON named James Paxton and he's an Actor too and they're related because they're Father and Son but both Mojo's NEVER talk about them even once, and I'm getting sick of it! I don't care about all these other "overrated, over-populated, over-dog celebrities" Because they're all BORING! PLEASE talk about these two Actors in the next video because I wanna their faces on a full list video on your channel, because I wanna see some brand new faces on your videos instead of the same, old, boring, overrated, over-popular celebrities and if you still won't make a full list on the 2016 LGBTQ show called Eyewitness and the Actor Father and Son duo of Bill Paxton and James Paxton? Then I'll continue to comment on it until you've made a full list of bith the TV show and the Actors because they truly deserve to be talked right now!
Take a pill and go lie down.
Sounds like you have a hyperfixation, and are allergic to brevity.
@@Uncle_Smidge Listen, so what if I have a hyper fixation on a CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED ACTOR named James Paxton, it's not fully that both Mrs. Mojo and WatchMojo only wanna talk about the bigger celebrities and never focus or talk about anything else, and honestly I'm infatuated with him because he's super multi talented, handsome, cute, hot, sexy, funny, humble, caring, loving, protective of his family, he doesn't discriminate, he's six feet tall with chocolate brown hair and beautiful ocean blue eyes, he's passionate about both music and acting, and he has a pure heart of gold... But unfortunately he's not getting the true recognition and attention he clearly deserves... At least in my eyes it seems like he's not getting enough popularity and he's really good at acting and being a musician in his own way.... So my question is why do you even care? I've been watching both Mojo's for a while now and they haven't mentioned or had done a list of Actor Bill Paxton's movies roles not ONE time and frankly that upsets me because he was amazingly talented Actor too and I'm positive his SON James Paxton is going to accomplish truly fantastically achievements someday, so it's true that I'm a little over-obsessed and hyper fixated on a famous Actor but at this point? Who isn't? You're probably hyper fixated on someone famous too, so don't judge me for being hyper fixated on two Actors who clearly aren't appreciated enough and leave me alone.
There is also John Paxton, the father of Bill.
