Sydney Sweeney’s latest campaign with American Eagle is turning heads…and not just for its denim. The ad, centered around the supposedly cheeky tagline ‘Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans,’ plays on the word “genes,” as the Australian actress talks about inheriting traits like blue eyes and blonde hair, ending with, “My jeans are blue.” However, it has quickly sparked into controversy.
