Sydney Sweeney American Eagle
The rumors about Machine Gun Kelly aren't the only reason Sydney Sweeney's been in the headlines as of late. Her recent campaign for American Eagle has been going viral for weeks at this point. It features the tagline, “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans," making a play on the words "genes" and "jeans." In turn, some critics have slammed it for allegedly promoting eugenics and white supremacy.
American Eagle addressed the backlash in a statement on social media. "'Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans' is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story," the post read. "We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way. Great jeans look good on everyone."
Donald Trump even voiced his support for Sweeney and the American Eagle advertisement in a lengthy rant on his platform, Truth Social. ""Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the “HOTTEST” ad out there. It’s for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying off the shelves.' Go get ‘em Sydney!" he wrote in part.
