The Handmaid’s Tale actress has often been compared to Scarlett Johansson
Sydney Sweeney recently shared a poignant reflection on the challenges she faces regarding public perception and the objectification of her body.
In a candid interview with Variety, the 26-year-old actress expressed the complexity of navigating fame, especially when the focus shifts from her professional achievements to her physical appearance.
“I see it and I just can’t allow myself to have a reaction,” Sydney revealed, discussing her efforts to disengage from the online commentary that often scrutinizes her appearance over her acting prowess.
She articulated a sentiment many public figures resonate with, highlighting a loss of personal autonomy in the face of public objectification.

“People feel connected and free to be able to speak about me in whatever way they want because they believe I’ve signed my life away,” she shared, shedding light on the dehumanization experienced by those in the limelight.
Sydney’s rise to stardom has not only been marked by her versatile roles but also by comparisons to other renowned actresses, such as Scarlett Johansson, further emphasizing the focus on her looks.

A recent appearance on Saturday Night Live”(SNL) exemplified this issue when a clip of Sydney thanking the audience went viral, predominantly for the low-cut dress she wore, amassing over 25 million views.
This incident, along with an SNL teaser that jokingly referenced her appeal to male fans, sparked a backlash among viewers who criticized the show for reducing Sydney’s contribution to her physical attributes.

“Sydney Sweeney is more than her boobs,” one viewer implored, calling for a more nuanced appreciation of her talent.
This sentiment was echoed by others who felt uncomfortable with skits that portrayed Sydney in roles that seemed to capitalize on her appearance, such as a cheerleader and a Hooters waitress, which many criticized for lacking creativity and perpetuating outdated humor.
