American Eagle is standing by its controversial ad campaign with Sydney Sweeney, which boasts the tagline: "Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans."

For context, the tagline of the campaign is “Sydney Sweeney has great jeans,” and, as is explicitly pointed out, the whole thing is a play on Sydney’s “great genes.” Some people have taken issue with the glorification of Sydney’s genetics as a blonde-haired, blue-eyed, white woman, accusing AE of promoting eugenics and “ white supremacy .”

In several different ads, "The White Lotus" actress can be seen posing in a Canadian tuxedo, which consists of a denim jacket over denim jeans. However, the ads make it very clear that she is not wearing anything underneath the denim jacket.
