Sydney's Controversial American Eagle Campaign: A Look at the Backlash and Support
Sydney is set to make an appearance at the Toronto International Film Festival to promote her upcoming movie, "Christy." The controversy surrounding her recent American Eagle campaign sparked a backlash after the brand doubled down on its themes. Despite the negative reception, the White House and even Donald Trump himself voiced support for Sydney and the campaign. Prior to this, Sydney had maintained a public stance of being apolitical, but her registration as a Republican came to light during the backlash. Despite the controversy, American Eagle's shares have seen a significant increase since the launch of Sydney's campaign.
