Lizzo Weighs In On Sydney Sweeney Ad With Jeans Image, Gets Dragged By Followers

Recording artist Lizzo got in on the trend of mocking the viral American Eagle ad with Sydney Sweeney, but most of her followers were not amused.

The 47-year-old rapper shared what appears to be an AI image of herself clad head to toe in denim to Instagram that included the caption, “My jeans are black.” The image also had text on it that said, “If the Democrats won the election.”

Comments on the image mostly criticized Lizzo for having beef with the Sweeney ad, pointing out that it wasn’t racist or hateful to put white people in advertisements.

“Lizzo this is embarrassing,” one person wrote. “Sydney being the face of the ad doesn’t take away from other ethnicities or beauty. Get real.”

“This is so weird. So companies are no longer allowed to use any white models to model their products?” another wrote.

“This promotes division and smells of racism and relevancy. Do better,” another wrote.

Many commenters also noted how Lizzo failed to tag the original creator of the image, Kevin Flynn, who runs the account “whitepeoplehumor.” She also cropped out his name when reposting the ad recreation on her personal Instagram account.

The argument stems from American Eagle’s viral ad campaign featuring Sweeney posing provocatively with a sports car while helping advertise the retailer’s denim. In one of the ads, Sweeney says, “Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color. My jeans are blue.”

This messaging has led to absolute crashouts by mainstream media and leftist social media influencers, who insist the Sweeney ads are nothing but “Nazi propaganda.”

Backlash got so bad that American Eagle responded, but instead of apologizing, they doubled down. 

‘Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans’ is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story,” the company posted on Friday to their Instagram.

“We’ll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way,” AE continued. “Great jeans look good on everyone.”
