Rumer Willis says she’s not a trust-fund baby
Bruce Willis and Demi Moore’s daughter Rumer is determined to become a Hollywood star in her own right – and show critics she is more than just a “celebrity child”.
The 19-year-old is a regular on the Hollywood party circuit, but she insists she isn’t just feeding off her parents’ fame – and that everyone she meets discovers her extra depth.
She says, “I think when people meet me they’re shocked. Because the idea of celebrity children is that they’re trust-fund babies that don’t have any desire to work and they’re just going to ride their parents’ train. And in some cases that stereotype has proved right. I would hope that after people meet me, they would give me the benefit of the doubt. They’re kind of like, ‘Wow, you’re really much more chill and down-to-earth than I thought you would be.’”
And Willis Jr rejects claims she has had acting roles handed to her because of her famous family, insisting she has had to fight extra battles to become acknowledged as an actress in her own right.
Rumer – who appears in new movie From Within and forthcoming film Wild Cherry – says, “The interesting thing about Hollywood is that everyone has different ways of getting their foot in the door. Some of the opportunities that I’ve had because of how I’ve grown up I wouldn’t have had otherwise. And also some of the things that I have to work harder for that somebody else might not.”

Rumer has GOT to reduce that chin. Otherwise she looks too much like Bruce. Seriously, try covering up her chin with your hand, and you can see that we have a very attractive young lady.

Sorry but Rumer Willis is one ugly woman. She has a Jay Leno chin, pinched nose, moles on her face, and her boobs already look saggy. And little rat eyes. She even has the look of kind of soft/flab. She is actually kind of hard to look at. She took the worst qualities of both her beautiful parents.

Girlfriend needs some major plastic surgery on her chin, then she’ll look alright.

Sorry – the only reason this ‘almost pretty’ girl is getting acting work IS her parents. She is a not pretty version of Bruce/Demi. ‘Odd’ looking face shape/size. I feel sorry for her. She needs some surgery (no shame in it – many major glamour girls had it – think Marilyn), a personal trainer (she looks chubby), and someone to dress her/present her. However, she would still be where she’s at because of her parents. With all the pretty girls running to Hollywood, who in the world would take all that effort to rebuild her when there are 1000 of them in line behind her?

it’s not that her chin is huge, it’s that her mouth is small. maybe if she had a larger mouth she would look more normal.

it’s not that her chin is big, it is because her mouth is small. maybe if she had a bigger mouth her face would look more normal…
