Lisa Rinna is back to boasting about her modeling daughter, but one of her latest comments is stirring up major controversy.

She claimed that Amelia landed her latest exciting job on the runway for this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show by “manifesting,” which sparked backlash on social media, where users called out her daughter’s privilige.

Lisa Rinna Says Amelia Gray 'Manifested' Her Modeling Career After Walking In The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show
Amelia Gray, the 25-year-old model who is the daughter of Lisa Rinna and actor Harry Hamlin, recently added another major achievement to her modeling resume when she walked in the highly anticipated Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. The model joined a lineup of familiar faces on the runway, marking an exciting moment in her increasingly high-profile career.
Her mom couldn't have been prouder of the milestone. During an appearance on CBS Mornings, the former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star opened up about her daughter's modeling success and discussed how Amelia had seemingly manifested the opportunity for herself.
"That is my youngest child, our youngest child," Lisa begins during her interview. "She manifested this. She wanted to be an angel since she was probably eight years old, to be honest."
People Are Calling Out Lisa Rinna For Overlooking Amelia Gray's 'Nepo Baby' Privilege
However, Lisa's comments haven't exactly landed well with everyone. While there's no denying that Amelia has built a successful modeling career of her own, social media users are pointing out that she didn't exactly start out on a level playing field.
As the "nepo baby" of two famous parents, the 25-year-old grew up with access to opportunities and connections that aspiring models without celebrity backgrounds might not have. Now, some people are questioning whether describing her career as something she manifested overlooks the privilege that helped her get there.
"Manifesting= rich and famous parents," joked an Instagram user.
"Manifested?" asked another. "Really? It’s more like nepotism."
"Yep, having rich, famous parents helps to manifest," a user commented.
"Every girl who watched VS wanted to be an angel," noted another. "Unfortunately, we couldn't manifest this because we didn't have rich and famous parents."
"Actually, it’s called having a celebrity mom who hooked you up," a user joked.
