Sydney Sweeney has no desire to publicly "speak on politics". The 28-year-old actress believes she's become a "pawn" in political circles in recent months - but Sydney insists she's focused on her acting career, rather than political issues. I’ve always been here to make art, so this is just not a conversation I want to be at the forefront of. Sydney was previously criticised for her role in an American Eagle advertising campaign, which played on the words "jeans" and "genes". Sydney concluded the segment by looking into the camera and saying: "My jeans are blue."
