Sydney Sweeney keeps her cool ahead of new film Q&A after fan outrage
Share and Follow

Sydney Sweeney exuded an air of cool confidence as she made her way through New York City on Tuesday evening.

The 28-year-old actress, known for her role in “Euphoria,” was seen attending a Q&A session after a screening of her latest film, “Christy.”

In the sports drama, Sweeney portrays the trailblazing female boxer Christy Martin. This appearance follows her striking cover feature on GQ‘s prestigious Men of the Year issue.

The cover generated significant buzz online, with some fans criticizing her for being overexposed due to her relentless film promotions and her involvement in a contentious American Eagle jeans campaign.

Notably absent from her New York appearance was her rumored new partner, Scooter Braun. The two have been seen together recently, following a public altercation she had with her former fiancé, Jonathan Davino.

Sydney looked as if she was trying to put that behind her on Tuesday when she emerged from a black Escalade in a tasteful gray tweed herringbone coat with an expansive fleece collar.

Similar to the outfit she wore the night before, Sydney’s double-breasted coat was belted to emphasize her trim midriff and hourglass figure.

She wore a white top underneath the coat, but her skirt or pants didn’t peak out beyond her already short jacket.

The film and TV star completed her look with pointy black heels, chic dark sunglasses and her wavy blond bob. 

Sydney looked too cool for school when she was spotted later in the evening in a second ensemble.

She wore a double-breasted black leather jacket with a modest fleece-lined collar, and she paired her jacket with knee-high black suede boots.

The actress carried the same black semicircular bag and stayed warm in black stockings.

Earlier, fans complained that they were ‘tired’ of seeing her ‘everywhere’ after she appeared on the cover of GQ’s Men of the Year issue.

Taking to the comments of GQ’s announcement, one person begged: ‘I’m so tired of having Sydney Sweeney shoved down my throat, please anyone else.’

‘She’s the female form of Pedro Pascale,’ another user wrote. ‘She’s everywhere.’

‘Nope,’ added one commenter, while another yawned: ‘Way over hyped.’

In her interview, Sweeney spoke out about the controversial American Eagle campaign.

Over the summer, the actress starred in a viral advert for the brand’s jeans, which provoked a social media meltdown.

The commercial, titled Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans, showed the star buttoning up a set of denim trousers and offering a playful pun on the word ‘genes.’

‘Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color… my jeans are blue,’ she said.

The campaign was met with controversy upon its launch in July, as social media users feverishly accused it of being racist and flirting with eugenics in light of its star’s blond-haired, azure-eyed appearance.

Breaking her silence on the backlash for the first time, Sweeney told the publication: ‘I did a jean ad. I mean, the reaction definitely was a surprise, but I love jeans. All I wear are jeans. I’m literally in jeans and a T-shirt every day of my life.’

Later, she was spotted leaving in a double-breasted black leather jacket with a modest fleece-lined collar

When asked her response to Donald Trump speaking about the ad, Sweeney described the moment as ‘surreal’.

‘I kind of just put my phone away,’ she continued.

‘I was filming every day. I’m filming Euphoria, so I’m working 16-hour days and I don’t really bring my phone on set, so I work and then I go home and I go to sleep.

‘So I didn’t really see a lot of it.’

The President wrote on Truth Social in August: ‘Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the HOTTEST ad out there. Go get ’em Sydney!’

Her outing comes after a source told People that Sydney has put her ex Jonathan Davino behind her. ‘Sydney was determined to remain friendly with him after they split, but she has fully moved on,’ they claimed. 

‘She’s really tried to keep things amicable. He still asks to see her and she has when she’s had the time, but she’s never getting back together with him,’ the insider continued. ‘She just wants to move on now.’

The couple had gotten engaged in 2022, but the Euphoria star confirmed in May of this year that they had ended their engagement and split. 

On November 1, Sydney was seen reuniting with her ex-fiancé Jonathan Davino (pictured together in December 2024 in NYC). But the meeting reportedly devolved into a shouting match in his car

Days before the screening, on November 1, the two reunited in LA when Sydney was pictured sitting in the passenger seat of a car driven by Jonathan in photos obtained by Page Six. 

But the meeting devolved into a shouting match, with a witness telling TMZ that Sydney screamed, ‘I don’t believe you. Please leave, leave me alone.’
