Two nepo babies whose dads are rock legends posed for a photo together that has gone viral, rocking the internet.
The young adults have known each other most of their lives thanks to their fathers working together in one of music’s biggest bands.
Mae McKagan, 25, a budding model and influencer, is the daughter of Guns n’ Roses bassist Duff McKagan whom he shares with model and author Susan Holmes McKagan.
London Hudson, 22, is the son of another head banging rocker and Guns n’ Roses great, Slash.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, whose real name is Saul Hudson, shares London, a professional musician, with his ex-wife Perla Ferrar.
Instead of focusing on the guitar and following his father’s lead, London has decided to make his mark as a drummer.
‘I don’t want to live in his shadow … that’s the main reason I don’t play guitar or stringed instruments,’ he said in 2018 on the Appetite for Distortion podcast.
He is currently the drummer for a band called Return to Dust.
The group is scheduled to crisscross the US on tour beginning August 29, as the opening act for Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace.
Fans should not be surprised if they see London’s devoted dad in the audience.
‘It’s very surreal to see him doing gigs and playing the way he is,’ Slash told the Wall of Sound podcast in 2022.
‘It’s mind-blowing to see your little one up there doing that,’ the rocker said.
Their upcoming CD, Speak Like the Dead, will be released on August 1.
In the past, London has teamed up with Noah Weiland, the son of the late Stone Temple Pilots singer Scott Weiland, and Tye Trujillo, whose dad is Metallica’s Robert Trujillo.
In addition to modeling for Skims and other clothing brands, Mae McKagan is also designing looks of her own.
She is the founder of MAE, an independent clothing brand in New York City.
The brand focuses on hip sexy looks with mix of textiles including leather, lace and denim.
‘She makes her own stuff, for girls she knows – and who better to make stuff for than her generation?’ Duff told The Sun, adding, ‘I couldn’t be more proud. I’ll shut up now.’
