Celebrities Are Jumping Into The Sydney Sweeney AE Drama, And It’s Getting Messier By The Minute

She wrote, “First of all—this isn’t about Sydney. I don’t know her personally and this isn’t about tearing another woman down. But I do think it’s important we talk about the bigger picture.”

She continued, “Let’s be real: I have blonde hair, blue eyes and curves since I was a kid. I was sexualized by the system // powerful men before I was even old enough to understand what was happening. I’ve been there— marketed, minimized, misrepresented. So when I see a big-budget ad pushing this hypersexualized ‘All-American girl’ image to sell JEANS, all I can think is… here we go again.”

“Another billionaire-backed fantasy being sold to us like it’s harmless nostalgia,” Courtney added. “But it’s not…it’s rooted in racism. It’s also a recycled idea of womanhood created for the silly male gaze and mass consumption.”

“We deserve better,” Courtney said, as she also called out the original ad for its depictions of an “underage” Brooke Shields. “We are better.”
