Lizzo has weighed into the controversy surrounding the American Eagle campaign fronted by Sydney Sweeney, by reposting a political meme of herself.
Sweeney, 27, and the denim brand have been accused of pushing Nazi-like eugenics as aspirational in the campaign designed to lure Gen Z customers.
‘Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color,’ Sydney said in the commercial, adding: ‘My jeans are blue.’
In response, Lizzo, 37, – who boasts 44.7M social media followers – shared a Photoshopped meme of herself in a similar pose with the caption: ‘My jeans are black…’
Both Sweeney and American Eagle CEO Jay Schottenstein have not issued any statements amidst the white supremacy backlash, which caused the stock price to substantially dip over the past five days.
