Sydney Sweeney on Jeans Controversy: 'I Love Denim'

Sydney Sweeney, known for her roles in Euphoria and The White Lotus, addressed the controversy surrounding her American Eagle denim campaign. Despite the backlash over a play on words that some interpreted as promoting eugenics, Sweeney maintained she wasnt thinking of it that way. The campaign, titled Sydney Sweeney Knows Good Jeans, sold out rapidly, indicating consumer interest despite the controversy. Sweeney, busy filming Euphoria, largely missed the online frenzy. Some criticized her GQ explanation as tone-deaf, while others defended her, suggesting her stardom is peaking in a particularly sensitive era. DNN | The Daily News Now!
