Producers and directors in Hollywood often invest money in particular kinds of faces, and for actors and actresses, their face is everything. Oftentimes, children of such celebrities also embark on a similar career path and emerge successful because, again, there exists a market for that face. However, not everyone is that lucky, as some celebrity children look nothing like their famous father or mother. Check out the following extremely popular celebrities, and how their children have been deprived of that genetic code which could've helped them immensely in their careers.

Jack Nicholson and Lorraine Nicholson

We have absolutely no doubt that Lorraine Nicholson is Jack Nicholson's daughter, but as far as looks go, they share the bare minimum. Instead, Lorraine has taken most of her genes from her mother, Rebecca Broussard, who was Jack's partner in the early '90s and an actress whose career and earnings waned before it even took off.

Michael Jackson and His Children

We were in tears when we saw a very rare picture of Michael Jackson's children all-together in one frame around Christmas 2017, posted by Paris Jackson, his daughter, on her Instagram page. Considering how many cosmetic surgeries Michael went through, his children would need to invest money in a similar number of cosmetic procedures to look like him. But, even when we compare them to the old Michael, all three of them still look nothing like the King of Pop.

Neymar and Davi Lucca Da Silva

We're thankful that young Lucca has seemingly not inherited his father Neymar's physical traits because he is much prettier with his mother Carolina Dantas' eyes and perfectly aligned face. Carolina has more than a million followers on Instagram, and almost all her pictures are absolutely gorgeous. If this is where young Lucca is headed, we for sure see a successful modeling career in his future, that is, if he is willing to invest money and time into it, of course!

Jessica Alba - Haven Garner Warren

Usually, daughters take after their mother, and if the mother is a famous Hollywood actress, that only adds to the bonus. Unfortunately for Haven Garner Warren, most of her genetic code came from her father, Cash Warren, who, no offense, is definitely not prettier than Jessica Alba. Well, at least he is a film producer, so Haven can relax and enjoy life, while he is making money and will hopefully compensate her in the future, for robbing her of her mother's gorgeous genes.

Robert De Niro - Elliot De Niro

Robert De Niro has six children, and Elliot De Niro is the second-youngest one. Born to his wife, Grace Hightower, there is absolutely no question that Elliot looks exactly like his mother, who looks nothing like Robert, which means that Elliot looks nothing like his father. But now that he has entered his 20s, the young adolescent, who is also autistic, would be excited about his own bank account opening, which should happen soon enough.

Kim Kardashian - North West

North West hasn't even turned five years of age, but what we are seeing right now is kind of alarming. Although Kim has repeatedly denied having spent anything from her personal finance on cosmetic surgery, we find it rather odd that her daughter looks nothing like either her or Kanye West. Or maybe she is such a cute mixture of both that it has become hard to place her.

Steve Buscemi - Lucian Buscemi

We went back in time to see whether Steve Buscemi looked anything like his son at that age, but we returned utterly disappointed. Lucian Buscemi definitely looks more like his mother, and, in fact, does not look anything like his famous father. However, instead of becoming a filmmaker like mom, Lucian has chosen to become an actor, like his dad. Either way, his business plan is set towards the entertainment industry.

Sylvester Stallone's Daughters

Jennifer Flavin has done right by Sylvester Stallone by giving him three gorgeous daughters. However, we're not sure if it's just makeup or what, but none of them bear even a passing resemblance to their world-famous father. On a side note, they do have beautiful faces, and apparently, a huge fan following on Instagram which is in the hundreds of thousands.

Andy Garcia - Alessandra Garcia-Lorido

Most of us know about Andy's older child, Dominik, who has made quite a name for herself as an actress and also resembles her dad to some extent. But when we talk about Alessandra, who is into modeling, we honestly don't see any resemblance at all. However, with Andy's personal finance strategies backing them up, we are sure all four of his daughters would end up making it big in the industry, thanks to the good genes which both Andy and his gorgeous producer wife, Marivi, have bestowed upon them!

Demi Moore and Tallulah Willis

We don't blame Tallulah Willis for trying to emulate the famous bald look embraced by her mother for G.I. Jane, but the two of them are miles apart when it comes to attaining success and making money through their respective acting careers. While Demi Moore had already garnered many roles by the time she was in her mid-20s, including a 12-episode run on General Hospital, her daughter has not been so lucky having worked in only three acting jobs since 1995. She's still young, though, and we are not willing to give up on her just yet.

Idina Menzel - Walker Nathaniel Diggs

Walker Nathaniel Diggs is surely Taye Diggs son, and any resemblance to mommy Idina Menzel is hard to find with a superficial analysis. But the Tony Award Winner, who gave us a stupendous performance as Elphaba in the hit Broadway musical called Wicked, doesn't seem to mind. In fact, we bet Walker himself would wish he received some of that Idina Menzel gorgeousness in inheritance when he grows up and looks start to matter to him.

Christina Aguilera - Max Liron Bratman

Although her marriage to music producer Jordan Bratman ended in a divorce, Christina Aguilera definitely received lifetime dividends from it in the form of her son, Max Liron Bratman, even if he looks too much like her ex-husband. With such musical genes packed within him, only time will tell if Max would be pursuing a musical career like his mom and dad.

Alessandra Ambrosio - Anja Louise Ambrosio Mazur

Brazilian supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio has maintained her hold on our hearts for many years, thanks to her tenure with Victoria's Secret which made her famous around the world. Now, the supermodel is also a supermom to Anja, her daughter, who looks a bit too much like her ex-fiance and not like her at all, which, of course, does not diminish her love for her daughter in any way.

David Bowie - Alexandria Zahra Jones

Being the daughter of a global singing sensation and a top American-Somalian supermodel must be demanding for young Alexandria Zahra, but thanks to her mother Iman's dominant genes, she should not be too worried about her future as she definitely has a natural talent for modeling. Although, after inheriting money from Bowie, she doesn't really need to work at all!

Kelly Ripa - Lola Grace Consuelos

Kelly Ripa's delivered a memorable performance in All My Children, and now all eyes are on her teenage daughter Lola Grace Consuelos, who seems to have tilted towards her father's Spanish descent as far as looks are concerned. If we're being honest, she looks nothing like her mother Kelly, which, in all honesty, is not a good or a bad thing as both her parents are gorgeousness personified!

Arnold Schwarzenegger - Joseph Baena

Even though Arnold regrets his affair with Mildred Patricia, his former housekeeper, as it also effectively ruined things with wife Maria Shriver (can you believe their divorce is still pending?), he certainly loves his son, Joseph Baena, who was born from it. Unfortunately, as far as appearances go, the father-son duo don't look related at all, apart from maybe the muscular exterior.

Paula Patton - Julian Fuego Thicke

The Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol actress Paula Patton effectively ended her marriage with Robin Thicke back in 2015, but is now reminded of her ex every day by the face of her son, Julian, who has taken more after his father. We hope he doesn't face the same inheritance issues that Robin Thicke is facing with step-mom Tanya Callau these days, as the latter has accused her step-sons of holding back what's truly hers for the keeping. But being the child of two celebrities, it's not like he needs it.

Cher - Chaz Bono

Chaz certainly got his father's smile, and we think it's one of the most honest ones in Hollywood. But what we love most about Chaz is that he is very brave, having undergone gender reassignment around 2010, transitioning from woman to man. He certainly made the right decision, as, frankly speaking, he has always looked a lot like his dad, and we think Cher realizes this as well since she has been completely supportive of her son's choices.

David Hasselhoff - Hayley Hasselhoff

The Baywatch star David Hasselhoff, simply known as The Hoff, was reportedly facing a liquidity crisis back in 2016, with a credit card debt amounting to around $100K. Part of the reason was his dependents, including his daughter Hayley. But Hayley has been making her own career for years now, both as a plus-sized model and as an actress. We just hope she makes better financial choices than her father, and the fact that she doesn't look like him at all is rather reassuring in that respect.

Bruce Jenner - Kylie Jenner

We're not sure who Kylie Jenner looks more like, her mother Kris Jenner or father Caitlyn Jenner (previously Bruce Jenner), but she is definitely a mix of the two. However, thanks to Caitlyn's transformation (which must've cost more than financing a business), we can say for sure that the Olympic gold-medalist shares little resemblance with his successful, entrepreneurial daughter.

Heidi Klum - Henry Günther Ademola Dashtu Samuel

One fact with interracial marriages is that, as a person can have only one skin tone, the children can go either way, which is also true for Henry Samuel who has gone with his dad's genetic code. He even has that signature Seal gap between his teeth. Born to the famous, now-divorced, celebrity pairing of Seal and Heidi Klum, Henry should look forward to welcoming millions on his bank account's opening day as both his mom and dad have seen immense success over the course of their careers, and would want their child to live comfortably.

Halle Berry - Nahla Ariela Aubry

Nahla is fortunate to have the gorgeous, Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry as a mother and the handsome Canadian model Gabriel Aubry as a father, so as far as genes are concerned, she's all set. But objectively speaking, she shares little with her mother in appearance, as is evident from the fact that her hair color, hairstyle, and facial features all resemble those of her father.

Cuba Gooding Jr. - Spencer Gooding

We must admit, the father-son bond between Cuba Gooding Jr. and Spencer Gooding is right out of a Disney film. Cuba rose to international prominence with Boyz in the Hood back in 1991, and now his son, who is in his mid-20s, may be looking for his big break. After all, Hollywood is the perfect machine for making money, and when you have celebrities as parents, entering into it becomes much easier. Of course, the fact that Spencer looks somewhat like his dad would certainly help.

Chris Noth - Orion Christopher Noth

At 1.85m of height, Chris Noth is surely tall enough to be in show-business, and has been making money with many TV shows over the years, including and most notably with the SATC franchise and Law & Order. However, now things seem to have slowed down in his career, partially because of the fact that the actor is now in his 60s, which means he gets to spend more time with family, including his son Orion, who, by the way, looks nothing like him. Maybe after a few years, he might, but for now, they don't even seem related!

Ron Perlman - Blake Perlman

Our favorite Hellboy has been very vocal on Twitter (we love his outpourings), although you won't be hearing from him these days since he's taking a break from the platform. Trained in classical acting techniques, Ron Perlman has been acting since the '80s and has a staggering 239 acting credits to his name, 8 of which are still in production, with a reported $15 million in net worth. His daughter Blake has followed suit and has two upcoming projects herself. Looks-wise, she is definitely her mother's daughter, however, we do see a hint of Perlman in there somewhere!

Nicolas Cage - Weston Cage

Any resemblance between Nicolas Cage and his son Weston Cage is due to the fact that Weston's mother also looks somewhat like Nicolas as far as the eyes are concerned. Nicolas won the Academy Award for his brilliant performance in the 1995 film Leaving Las Vegas, and has seen an illustrious career resulting in a stuffed bank account. Now his son is making strides in the industry both as a singer and as an actor.

Mariah Carey - Monroe Cannon

American singer Mariah Carey is no stranger to fame, and as of February 2018 was living in a $35K/month home in the Beverly Hills area as part of an efficient wealth management strategy. Her twin daughters Moroccan and Monroe recently turned seven years old, and are slowly starting to reveal that they look little like their mother and mostly like their father, Nick Cannon. However, they're still quite young, and only time will tell which side they choose once they transform into adults.

Bob Dylan - Jesse Dylan

Bob Dylan's son Jesse is well into his 50s and the duo is quite different, both in looks and otherwise. Unlike dad, Jesse became a film director, most notable for having directed the 2003 film American Wedding. However, again unlike his father, Jesse has not been very successful in his career as a director and has not directed anything since 2012, according to IMDb. However, as part of his investing strategy, Jesse started a healthcare initiative in 2007 called Lybba, aimed at enabling better provision of healthcare.

Rowan Atkinson and Lily Atkinson

We all know Rowan Atkinson as the funniest person ever due to his impeccable performance as the globally famous, Mr. Bean. When it will come to inheriting money, his daughter Lily Atkinson would happily accept whatever her father bestows on her, but when it came to taking genetics, Lily was seemingly very particular to choose her mother Sunetra Sastry's side. Not that she made a conscious choice, but if she had to, we're sure things wouldn't be any different!
