Is Sydney Sweeney really the “MAGA Barbie” the internet insists she is, or just a misunderstood star trying to keep her art—and her politics—separate?

At 28, she’s mastered the art of saying just enough without tipping the scales, especially when social media wants to assign her a role far beyond her craft. But hey, when the cosmic vibes urge us to clear the air, maybe it’s time to listen. Ready to dive deeper into Sydney’s world beyond the headlines? LEARN MORE.

Let’s be honest:
Sydney Sweeney is mostly known for what she says.
The actress has typically made headlines away from the screen for what she wears and, on occasion, what she does NOT wear.
Earlier this week, however, the 28-year old spoke to Cosmopolitan about the launch of her lingerie line SYRN and made some interesting remarks with her mouth.
During the interview,Sweeney was asked about folks on social media speculating about her political leanings … and often frequently dubbed “MAGA Barbie” on social media.
“I’ve never been here to talk about politics. I’ve always been here to make art, so this is just not a conversation I want to be at the forefront of,” said the Euphoria cast member.
“And I think because of that, people want to take it even further and use me as their own pawn. But it’s somebody else assigning something to me, and I can’t control that.”
Back in July, Sweeney stirred up a rather absurd controversy when she posed for an American Eagle ad that some people believed to be racially insensitive.
Sydney stayed mostly silent amid the annoying discourse.
She has chosen to mostly NOT correct assumptions about her.
“I haven’t figured it out. I’m not a hateful person. If I say, ‘That’s not true,’ they’ll come at me like, ‘You’re just saying that to look better.’ There’s no winning. There’s never any winning,” Sydney told Cosmo, adding:
“I just have to continue being who I am, because I know who I am. I can’t make everyone love me. I know what I stand for.”
Sydney Sweeney is one of the best looking humans on the planet.
That’s really it. We have no real follow-up to that sentence.
“I’m in the arts. I’m not here to speak on politics,” she explained in this new feature.
“That’s not an area I’ve ever even imagined getting into. It’s not why I became who I am. I became an actor because I like to tell stories, but I don’t believe in hate in any form. I believe we should all love each other and have respect and understanding for one another.”
Sweeney made a similar comment back after the American Eagle ad went viral, stating at the time:
“Anyone who knows me knows that I’m always trying to bring people together. I’m against hate and divisiveness.
“In the past my stance has been to never respond to negative or positive press, but recently I have come to realize that my silence regarding this issue has only widened the divide, not closed it. So I hope this new year brings more focus on what connects us instead of what divides us.”
