Sydney Sweeney says Hollywood is not actually filled with 'women empowering other women,' but rather people tearing women down. 'None of it's happening,' she said in the 'Vanity Fair' 2025 Hollywood Issue.
Baum went on to call Sweeney and Glen Powell’s smash-hit rom-com Anyone But You an “unwatchable movie,” before revealing that she asked her students to “explain” the actress to her. "I said to my class, ‘Explain this girl to me. She’s not pretty, she can’t act. Why is she so hot?’ Nobody had an answer,” she said,
Yeah, seems like she had cause to say “maybe we don’t have to hate each other for having success”…
I honestly ignored that Sweeney is a perfectly good looking woman because the whole premise is stupid.
The whole point of acting is to be whatever character. If people like one character enough, it doesn’t matter how “good” your acting is. All that matters is that people connected to that character.
But also women bashing women for how attractive they are is definitely shit.
