4 Stars Who Made it Despite Having Only One Famous Parent

Allison WIlliams

Girls and Get Out star Allison Williams faced double adversity because her mom is some nobody journalist with perfect bone structure and her dad is only Brian Williams. While the chief NBC anchor is technically “very famous”, he isn’t even in Allison’s direct field of acting, thus robbing her of those formative years growing up on a movie set or running around the backstage of a TV show that wasn’t the news. By the grace of God and a lot of hard work, Allison still managed to go directly from Yale, to internet fame, to a starring role in a HBO series, even with her nothing mom and almost-nothing dad. If she can do it, anyone can!
