Some people accused the ad of having eugenics undertones or promoting ideas that are racially insensitive—because referencing “genes” in that way, especially with reference to traits like blue eyes and blonde hair, can (in critics’ views) echo harmful historical associations.

Others defended the brand, saying the campaign was simply playing with a pun (“genes” vs “jeans”) and meant to focus on the denim, not send any racial or elitist message.

Response:

American Eagle released a statement saying the campaign “is and always was about the jeans.” They clarified that the goal was fashion and individual style, not promoting eugenics.

Sydney Sweeney, for her part, has largely avoided discussing the controversy directly in detail. At TIFF, she said she was there to talk about her film Christy, not jeans.

🚨 The Claim About Going Naked for an NFL Team

What is being claimed:

Viral social media posts (and some fan pages) have circulated the idea that Sydney Sweeney said she would go naked to celebrate if a certain NFL team (Buffalo Bills, Chicago Bears, Cleveland Browns among them) won the Super Bowl.

Example quote attributed: “If they win, you’ll definitely see me naked in full [Team] glory — because this is my team, and I’ll do whatever it takes to show my love.”

What the evidence shows:

There is no credible source (interview, video, press release) confirming that Sweeney ever said this.

The origin appears to be fan pages/posts which are not verified and seem to have spread the claim for clicks / engagement.
