Donald Trump<\/a> has hailed Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle advertising campaign.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Donald Trump has praised Sydney Sweeney’s much-discussed advertising campaign for American Eagle jeans<\/p>\n

The US President has lavished praise on the Euphoria actress – who has been identified as a registered Republican in Florida – for featuring in the “hottest” commercial for the brand’s jeans, even though it has been criticised on social media and sparked a debate about beauty standards.<\/p>\n

Trump wrote on Truth Social: “Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the ‘hottest’ ad out there. It’s for American Eagle, and the jeans are ‘flying off the shelves’. Go get ’em Sydney!”<\/p>\n

The White House chief compared the advertisement to car manufacturer Jaguar’s ill-fated rebrand last year, which he branded as a “seriously woke advertisement” and a “total disaster”.<\/p>\n

Trump, 79, also used his post to take aim at Taylor Swift<\/a> – whom he clashed with previously after she endorsed his rival Kamala Harris in last year’s presidential election – as he described her as a “woke singer”.<\/p>\n

\nHe said: “Ever since I alerted the world as to when she was by saying on TRUTH that I can’t stand her (HATE!). She was booed out of the Super Bowl and became NO LONGER HOT. The tide has seriously turned – Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”<\/p>\n

\nA public database in Florida shows that Sweeney, 27, was registered as a Republican voter in the state last June – with the matter being discovered by a YouTuber who came across it as she put together a profile of The White Lotus star.<\/p>\n

\nAmerican Eagle defended the actress last week after the campaign’s tagline ‘Sydney Sweeney has great jeans’ was criticised because the phrase “great genes” is associated with eugenicists – who argue that humanity can be improved genetically through selective breeding.<\/p>\n

\nThe company wrote in an Instagram post: “‘Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans’ is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story.<\/p>\n

\n“We’ll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way. Great jeans look good on everyone.”<\/p>\n

\nSydney revealed that she was “freaking out” when she was approached to star in the campaign.<\/p>\n

\nShe said: “I was freaking out because I was like, ‘This is perfect’, and I was so excited.<\/p>\n

\n“When they were like, ‘We want it to be a denim campaign’, I was through the roof. I was like, ‘This is it. This is Syd. I will be able to bring this to life. You have no idea.'”<\/p>\n
