"Sydney Sweeney has finally spoken out about the controversy surrounding her American Eagle jeans advert, admitting that her silence on the matter has widened the divide. The 28-year-old actor became the face of the brand's Great Jeans campaign earlier this year, which drew intense scrutiny over its use of "jeans" as a play on the word genes. Critics interpreted the wordplay as a reference to eugenics, the discredited theory of improving humanity through selective breeding. However, American Eagle has maintained that the advert solely refers to its denim products."
