Now PlayingSydney Sweeney’s movie premiere took an unexpected and dramatic turn when a protester publicly confronted her over American Eagle’s controversial ad campaign. As she arrived in Hollywood for the premiere of her latest film Americana, someone in the crowd shouted, “Stop the ad, that is being racist!”, a direct reference to the tagline “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans,” which many believe is a racial play on the word “genes.” The incident quickly went viral across social media. Despite the tension, Sweeney stayed poised and posed with co-stars Halsey and Simon Rex. While American Eagle has denied the accusations, calling them defamatory, the online backlash, especially on TikTok, is still gaining momentum. Watch the full story unfold.
