Sydney Sweeney’s political party affiliation has been revealed as she continues to be embroiled in woke backlash from her recent American Eagle denim campaign. 

The 27-year-old actress is a member of the Republican Party of Florida, according to public voter records viewed by Daily Mail. She registered in Monroe County, Florida in June 2024.

Buzzfeed was first to report the news not long after one social media user on X uploaded a now-viral post on Friday. 

They wrote, ‘was about to make a whole youtube video exploring sydney sweeney’s choices not defending her but going through her career context and i just found out this lady is an actual registered member of the republican party as of 2024.’ 

The star modeled items for the clothing brand under the tagline ‘Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans.’ 

The ad blew up on social media, with some labeling the campaign as ‘Nazi propaganda’ and others calling the backlash ‘ridiculous.’ American Eagle has since defended the star in a statement released earlier this week. 

DailyMail.com has reached out to Sydney’s rep for comment but did not immediately hear back.

Fans have offered differing viewpoints on the actress’s political party registration by jumping to X, with one penning, ‘are we really surprised? lol.’ 

‘I would like to say im shocked…but im not,’ another typed, and one added, ‘Her playing a character who supports women’s rights while being registered Republican in Florida is something!’

An X user shared, ‘oh so she’s part of the maga family, that’s disappointing,’ while others came to her defense. 

‘Its okay for people to have different views than you,’ one commented, while a fan also said, ‘Y’all need to stop harassing her. She’s a human being and is allowed to vote for whoever she wants. There’s a thing called free will people.’ 

Another added, ‘If every celeb’s voter registration became public, we’d probably cancel 80% of Hollywood,’ and one wrote, ‘Why is this anyone’s business? She’s an actress, not your elected official.’ 

Beginning late last month, Sydney starred in a number of ads for American Eagle’s denim campaign. 

In one, the Anyone But You actress could be seen buttoning a pair of denim blue jeans while saying, ‘Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color. My genes are blue.’ 

Another clip filmed the star wearing a denim jumpsuit with a plunging neckline on the front as the camera panned down towards her chest.

‘My body’s composition is determined by my genes,’ she said, and then stopped to add, ‘Hey, eyes up here.’ The camera then jumped back up to her face. 

The campaign has since garnered woke backlash from some critics, with one sharing on social media, ‘So Sydney (& American Eagle) somehow expect audiences to not interpret this visual as a euphemism for eugenics and white supremacy?’

Another said, ‘The Sydney Sweeney American Eagle ad campaign is just modern day Nazi propaganda. Like it’s wild how blatant it is. Things are weird right now, man.’ 

The words ‘great genes’ have been ‘historically used to celebrate whiteness, thinness and attractiveness,’ per a Salon report. The outlet added that using the phrase also made the ads ‘seem to be a tone-deaf marketing move.’ 

Earlier this week on Friday, Sydney was defended by American Eagle as the company released a statement amid the backlash. 

‘”Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans” is and always was about the jeans,’ the brand wrote. ‘Her jeans. her story.

‘We’ll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way. Great jeans look good on everyone.’

The Euphoria actress also broke her silence on Saturday by making a return to social media with a cryptic post.

She uploaded a photo of a bouquet of pink roses and added a white heart emoji over the image. 

Insiders have also revealed the impact that the ad starring Sydney has had on the brand – and have claimed that 70% of the reaction to the campaign has been positive. 

‘This is yet another example of how social media is just not reflective of real life. The absurd response from some corners of the internet is absolutely not reflective of how American Eagle’s customers feel,’ sources told TMZ. 

‘The bottom line is that this was about creating a great pair of jeans and supporting a very worthy cause through some of the proceeds going to domestic violence prevention.’

They continued, ‘Anything beyond that is noise that is not registering with the average person. 

‘Regardless of how people feel about the ad, we hope they can agree we should be doing more to support and empower those who are experiencing domestic violence.’

Late last month on July 23, Sydney opened up about her involvement in the denim campaign in a news release. 

‘There is something so effortless about American Eagle,’ she expressed. ‘It’s the perfect balance of being put-together but still feeling like yourself.

‘Their commitment to creating pieces that make you feel confident and comfortable in your own skin is something that resonates with me.’

The star added, ‘It’s rare to find a brand that grows with you, the way American Eagle has for generations. They have literally been there with me through every version of myself.’

The president of the company Jennifer Foyle also said of campaign, which is set to raise money for domestic violence charities: ‘This fall season, American Eagle is celebrating what makes our brand iconic – trendsetting denim that leads, never follows. 

‘Innovative fits and endless versatility reflect how our community wears their denim: mixed, matched, layered and lived in.’

Jennifer continued, ‘With Sydney Sweeney front and center, she brings the allure, and we add the flawless wardrobe for the winning combo of ease, attitude and a little mischief.’
