Sydney Sweeney doesn’t associate herself with the nickname “MAGA Barbie.”
The actress spoke candidly about all the controversy surrounding her since her American Eagle Outfitters “Great Jeans” ad dropped last July, with some accusing it of being “Nazi propaganda” that praised her blond hair and blue eyes.
In an interview with Cosmopolitan published Thursday, Sweeney was asked about being labeled “MAGA Barbie” by some on the internet — especially after it was revealed she’s been registered as a Republican since June 2024 — even though she hasn’t directly spoken about her political views.
“I’ve never been here to talk about politics,” she told the magazine. “I’ve always been here to make art, so this is just not a conversation I want to be at the forefront of.”
“And I think because of that, people want to take it even further and use me as their own pawn,” she continued. “But it’s somebody else assigning something to me, and I can’t control that.”
Sweeney insisted she wasn’t a “hateful” person and said there was “no winning” when it comes to addressing politically charged things about herself.
“If I say, ‘That’s not true,’ they’ll come at me like, ‘You’re just saying that to look better,'” she explained.

A friend of Sue’s from British Colombia had ‘front surgery’.
...Reduction...
Ian was saddened.
She is very cute. Not hot. But very cute. I am glad she is standing her ground. I hope she inspires more Hollywood actors to stand up to the woke mod. As I stated in previous posts I am friends with two very famous actors and it is a blood bath if you depart from the Hollywood dogma. They will destroy you and you’ll never work again. I hope she has f you money because she will be getting incoming like no one can imagine.
Well don’t make a big deal about it....
A preposition is a terrible thing to end a sentence with.
I remember when the world was a flutter when Jack Nicholson (Roman Polanski pedo friend) got 10 million for Batman. How times change. Inflation I guess...,
Corrected grammar: “I’ve always been here to make art, so this is just not a conversation I want to be at the forefront of, Asshole.”
That would be grammatically correct.
correct but sounds clumsy
I don’t mind if she wants to end a sentence with a proposition.
“She’s going to need back surgery.”
Most likely. My niece was ginormous, and had to have a reduction while still in high school. She was having problems that young.
They’re gonna call you one anyways...
Wow! Those are some rules I could follow!
Thank you!
It’s also kind of clunky in conversational spoken English.
LOL
See reply #18.
Her wikipedia article was eye-opening.<p
A very smart girl - math and robotics clubs in high school, and class valedictorian as well. Also played every sport imaginable in high school as well.<p
Smart, athletic, and extremely attractive. No wonder the left hates her.
LOL - old joke, for sure.
