The first time Sydney Sweeney ’s father saw her naked in a graphic sex scene on HBO ’s provocative television series Euphoria , he walked out of the room.
According to National Post comment writer Amy Hamm: ‘We’ve spent years being chastised for desiring or admiring beauty – because beauty is rare and exclusionary, and to exclude is to hate – or so we’ve been scolded to accept by today’s diversity, equity, and inclusion fanatics. We aren’t supposed to admire Sweeney’s beauty; but we’ve done it anyways. The times, they are a-changin’.’
While embracing her body-positive apotheosis as an unapologetically sexual woman, Sweeney admits being wearied by the continual focus on her appearance. ‘Sometimes I feel beat up by it,’ she told Hollywood bible Variety last year. ‘It’s hard to sit back and watch, and not be able to stand up for yourself.’
As a pre-teen she felt ‘ostracised’ for developing breasts at a younger age than her peers, an early taste of having other people’s sexual expectations projected onto her, as in Euphoria. ‘You have a character that goes through the scrutiny of being a sexualised person at school, then an audience that does the same thing,’ she told The Sun last year.
She remained in LA with her mother, Lisa, a former criminal defence lawyer who quit to care for Sydney and younger brother Trent. With her recent success, Sweeney paid off her mother’s mortgage. ‘My parents sacrificed so much to support my dream and they lost so much during it,’ she says. ‘I felt a responsibility to show them that it was worth it.’ Sweeney found fame and Emmy nominations with White Lotus and Euphoria, but her family’s politics proved a distraction.
