Sydney Sweeney is unbothered.
The “Christy” actress, 28, is being praised online for her reaction to the woke mob outrage over her American Eagle jeans ad.
Sweeney recently chatted with GQ and refused to apologize after left-wing critics compared the retailer’s sultry ad to “Nazi propaganda” that promotes racism and eugenics.
“I did a jean ad,” Sweeney told the interviewer. “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.”
Sweeney also said it was “surreal” that President Donald Trump weighed in on the discourse, but clarified that she mostly ignored the controversy because she was busy filming the third season of “Euphoria.”
When the reporter asked Sweeney about addressing the claims that the ad promoted “genetic superiority,” she had a blunt response.
“I think that when I have an issue that I want to speak about, people will hear,” she replied.
On X, Sweeney was celebrated for standing her ground in the one-on-one interview.
“Sydney Sweeney is an American icon,” one Twitter account wrote about the “Madame Web” star.
“She nailed it. The question was pretentious and she gave it the ‘up yours’ it deserved,” someone else tweeted.
“Good for Sydney Sweeney!” a different person said.
A fourth fan wrote that Sweeney’s response “just makes me like her more.”
“Her answer was PERFECT,” another tweet read.
“It’s actually so nice to see someone not bow down to the bullsh-t,” another pro-Sweeney person wrote. “It was an ad for jeans, she has nothing to apologize for.”
American Eagle’s “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans” ad created an internet firestorm when it came out in July, as critics argued against the company using “jeans” instead of “genes” to talk about the blond-haired, blue-eyed starlet.
“Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color. My jeans are blue,” Sweeney said in a video for the campaign as she buttoned up her denim.
Amidst the social media frenzy over the campaign, American Eagle defended its marketing approach and the “Anyone But You” star.
“‘Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans’ is and always was about the jeans,” the company said in a statement to The Post. “Her jeans. Her story.”
Trump also showed support for Sweeney and her ad, especially after learning she’s allegedly a registered Republican.
“She’s a registered Republican? Oh, now I love her ad,” Trump told reporters over the summer.
“If Sydney Sweeney is a registered Republican, I think her ad is fantastic,” the president added.
Sweeney remained silent about the controversy until her GQ interview, where she acknowledged that American Eagle’s stocks soared 38% thanks to her ad.
The “Handmaid’s Tale” alum also insisted she’s “not going to be affected” by people who refuse to watch her TV and film projects because of the jeans ad.
