Sydney Sweeney<\/strong><\/a> doesn\u2019t have a fan in Carol Baum<\/strong>. After watching Anyone But You<\/em> on an airplane, the Hollywood producer not only slammed the starlet\u2019s appearance, but also her acting skills. \u201cShe\u2019s not pretty, she can\u2019t act,\u201d Carol declared. \u201cI don\u2019t get Sydney Sweeney.\u201d<\/p>\n While fans of the actress rushed to her defense on X, Sydney, 26, isn\u2019t paying Carol any mind. \u201cObviously, nobody wants to be attacked like this, but Sydney\u2019s confident enough in herself to take it and just push the comments aside,\u201d a source exclusively tells Life & Style. \u201cIf anything, it says more about Carol than it does about her.\u201d<\/p>\n After Carol called Anyone But You<\/em> \u201cunwatchable,\u201d a rep for Sydney responded to the University of Southern California adjunct professor via a statement to Today<\/em><\/a> on April 18.<\/p>\n \u201cHow sad that a woman in the position to share her expertise and experience chooses instead to attack another woman,\u201d the statement read. \u201cIf that\u2019s what she\u2019s learned in her decades in the industry and feels is appropriate to teach to her students, that\u2019s shameful. To unjustly disparage a fellow female producer speaks volumes about Ms. Baum\u2019s character.\u201d<\/p>\n Though the Madame Web<\/em> actress hasn\u2019t directly fired back at Carol, she seemingly gave a sly comeback to the professor and other critics with a recent vacation post<\/a> on Instagram. Sydney appeared to be unbothered on Sunday, April 21, as she shared a carousel of photos and videos from her Hawaiian getaway with the caption, \u201cGood times and tan lines.\u201d In one cheeky snap, the Euphoria<\/em> star pursed her lips as she showed off her sweatshirt, which read, \u201cSorry for having great t-ts.\u201d<\/p>\n Sydney is no stranger to people commenting on her body. The latest wave of chatter about her figure came after her Saturday Night Live<\/em> hosting gig<\/a> on March 2. In response to people debating whether her curves are the \u201cdeath of woke,\u201d the actress told Variety<\/em><\/a>, \u201cI just can\u2019t allow myself to have a reaction.\u201d<\/p>\n She continued, \u201cI don\u2019t know how to explain it \u2014 I\u2019m still trying to figure it out myself. People feel connected and free to be able to speak about me in whatever way they want, because they believe that I\u2019ve signed my life away. That I\u2019m not on a human level anymore, because I\u2019m an actor. That these characters are for everybody else, but then me as Sydney is not for me anymore. It\u2019s this weird relationship that people have with me that I have no control or say over.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
