Hollywood Reacts: Standing Up for Confidence
At a recent event in Los Angeles, actress Sydney Sweeney turned heads with her choice of attire, a shimmering silver dress. But beyond the fashion statement, a fellow actress, Sharon Stone, took a moment to speak out in support of Sweeney’s right to express herself.
Stone, who will be working alongside Sweeney in the upcoming season of “Euphoria,” praised the younger actress for embracing her own image. Stone emphasized the importance of using what you have with confidence.
Stone related Sweeney’s situation to a story about Jane Goodall. When Goodall appeared on the cover of Life magazine, some suggested she was only there because of her looks. Goodall’s response was that if her appearance helped her raise money for her research, she was fine with it.
Sweeney’s attitude, as reported by Stone, is that she likely made a lot of money for the jeans company she worked with, and she’s happy with that because she knows she will find more work.
This show of support comes after some criticism of Sweeney’s “Good Jeans” campaign. Some critics felt it echoed eugenics themes, while others saw it as harmless. American Eagle stood by Sweeney, saying the campaign was about celebrating how everyone wears their jeans with confidence.
Despite any backlash, Sweeney continues to thrive in Hollywood, with new projects on the horizon and a continued presence in the popular series “Euphoria.”
