Sydney Sweeney, the actress praised by Trump: Women are up against what society wants them to be'

"In longer formats, like press conferences where she is surrounded by journalists asking about her life, career, workouts, and style choices, she seems to struggle to get more than two sentences out. It's as if she fears that any word could be misinterpreted, leaked, and go viral. And she knows a thing or two about that. But in a toast or a selfie, Sweeney the 28-year-old actress from Spokane, Washington laughs, chats, and smiles freely."

"This summer, she starred in a jeans campaign that sparked controversy: did the ad say Sweeney has good jeans or good genes? Virality, sexism, supremacism, liberalism, conservatism everything mixed into the cocktail that put Sweeney at the center of debate. But she has long been in the spotlight for her roles and her striking red carpet appearances. I just wear what I'm comfortable in and what makes me feel confident, she replies quickly when asked how she chooses her looks."

"This year, she released the films Eden (directed by Ron Howard, starring Jude Law and Ana de Armas), Echo Valley (with Julianne Moore), The Housemaid (a suspense thriller based on Frieda McFadden's bestselling novel and co-starring Amanda Seyfried), and the biopic Christy, her most intense and carefully crafted project. Additionally, next year, she will return as Cassie for the eagerly awaited third season of Euphoria, the series that launched her to fame, returning to HBO with eight new episodes."
