Sydney Sweeney has blasted internet trolls tagging her family in photos of her nude Euphoria scene
“This is absolutely disgusting,” Euphoria star Sydney Sweeney said in a new interview with UK’s GQ about the misogynistic reaction to her nude scenes.
Sydney Sweeney has had a fair amount of people online trying to embarrass her by widely sharing her nude scenes from Euphoria, in some cases directly with family members.
In a new interview with Britain’s GQ, the 25-year-old actress opened up about the misogynistic reactions she received for her work on the series, including having family members tag screenshots of its more explicit episodes.
“My cousin doesn’t need this. This is absolutely disgusting and unfair,” the Emmy nominee told the publication.
Sweeney admits he sees disturbing parallels between his real life and his Euphoria character Cassie. Whose nude video went viral among her high school friends in season one. “You have a character being tested at school, being a sexual person. and then the audience does the same.”
But does negative behavior make them want to hide?
“Not anymore,” he said. “I find it ridiculous. I’m an artist, I play a character. It makes me want to play a character that irritates people more.” Sweeney’s nudity has been a hot topic since the controversial HBO show first aired. And she’s never been shy about denouncing Hollywood’s double standards for women.
Mostly, he’s learn to distance himself from the odd internet behavior. “If they tag me in the Cassie or Pippa file from The Voyeurs, I feel like I’m looking at their file, not the Sydney file. He previously told Cosmopolitan, explaining it was “very technical” to him. unromantic.”
And before starting anything new, he did his homework.
“I’ve researched celebrities who have done nude scenes, also I’ve been trying to feel better about myself. She told Cosmopolitan about the first time she saw a nude scene on The Voyeur. “There is an hour-long compilation of world-famous nude actors who won Oscars and were recognize for their work. But when a woman does, it demeans her: “They’re not actresses. They take off their tops so they can land roles.”
He continued, “There is a double standard and I really wish I could do a little bit to change that.”
