Euphoria<\/em> <\/a>isn\u2019t exactly a show that shies away from hard topics or nudity. And Sydney Sweeney\u2019s Cassie<\/a> has had plenty of storylines that have seen her show a fair bit of skin. But Cassie\u2019s latest foray into a career as an OnlyFans model has resulted in some of the most explicit nudity so far in the show.<\/p>\n The second episode of Season 3<\/a>, titled \u201cAmerica My Dream,\u201d continues to delve into Cassie\u2019s toxic relationship with her fianc\u00e9, Nate (Jacob Elordi). But it also focuses on a storyline introduced in the Season 3 premiere, Cassie pursuing a career on OnlyFans in order to save money for the wedding of her dreams.<\/p>\n More from StyleCaster<\/strong><\/p>\n Related:\u00a0<\/strong>How much does the cast of Euphoria make?<\/a><\/p>\n We already saw the character posing in a puppy play costume, but in the second episode, Cassie takes things up a notch via a montage of sexy photoshoots. There\u2019s Cassie licking a melting ice cream cone<\/a> as the ice cream drips down her bare chest. There\u2019s Cassie, completely naked and wearing a backwards baseball cap in what is probably supposed to be a catcher\u2019s pose, with her hands between her legs in a V.<\/p>\n There\u2019s also Cassie, fully drenched and wearing a sheer American flag<\/a>. And, of course, Cassie dressed up in baby clothes in a scene fans were up in arms about since it was teased in the trailer for the episode.<\/p>\n One fan\u00a0said\u00a0\u201cEuphoria was always provocative but it was never gross. This episode was GROSS\u201d,\u201d while another one\u00a0asked\u00a0\u201cCan\u2019t actors say no to some scenes? This show is written like someone\u2019s sick fantasies come to life. I bet Sam just wants to see how far he can push the envelope.\u00a0The show is disgusting and uncomfortable to watch.\u201d<\/p>\n Sweeney<\/a>, however, has always been clear about the fact that she has no problem with the nudity. In an interview with W Magazine<\/a> last year, Sweeney said: \u201cI think that I have gained so much confidence and self-awareness through Cassie. I think that the female body is a very powerful thing,\u201d and added, \u201cI think that, for me, I\u2019m telling my character\u2019s story and so I owe it to them to tell it well, and do what needs to be done.\u201d<\/p>\n The actress also told Empire<\/a>: \u201cI have such a spot in my heart for Cassie, and I hold her really close and dear. She is crazy. She makes so many mistakes. She\u2019s flawed on so many levels, but she does it all from a place of love. It could be a sad version of love, as well. It\u2019s so much fun to play a character that is as crazy as she is.\u201d<\/p>\n Plus, she praised creator Levinson. \u201cSam [Levinson] is such a brilliant filmmaker to work with, because I\u2019ll read something, then I\u2019ll call him, and I\u2019m like, \u2018Let\u2019s go\u00a0crazier<\/em>\u2018. And he\u2019s like, \u2018I\u2019m all in\u2019. And this season is\u00a0unhinged<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n The man behind Euphoria also defended this new storyline for Cassie, telling\u00a0The Daily Beast<\/a>,\u00a0\u201cWhat we wanted to always find is the other layer of absurdity that we\u2019re able to tie into it so that we\u2019re not too inside of her fantasy or illusion\u2014the gag is to jump out, to break the wall.\u201d<\/p>\n Best of StyleCaster<\/strong><\/p>\n Sign up for Stylecaster’s Newsletter<\/a>.
