31:27Now PlayingSydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad shocked many Americans like they’d never been shocked before. But was it really unprecedented? 14 years ago, I did a Lee Jeans ad conflating my genes with my jeans, and in this video, I talk about why some people reacted so viciously to an age-old advertising trope—sex sells—and how the Overton window is slowly widening to expand what is considered civil discourse in America.
