Sydney Sweeney could get a massive paycheck if she signs deal with Bud Light after Dylan Mulvaney fiasco
Sydney Sweeney could rake in $10million amid speculation that she's set to become the new face of Bud Light. Industry experts believe the actress , 27, could turn the criticism over her American Eagle jeans campaign to her favor by taking advantage of her popularity among conservative Americans. Bud Light's parent company Anheuser-Busch is still looking to recover from an ad deal with the trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney that backfired spectacularly. The move cost the brand $1.4bn in U.S. sales and led to a 15.3 per cent drop in revenue. Christopher Chatham, an expert in negotiating celebrity endorsement deals at the consultancy Manatt, told the Daily Mail that Sydney is a 'compelling candidate' to resuscitate Bud's sales. He said: 'Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle campaign delivered undeniable commercial impact - denim sales surged and the brand's stock climbed. That kind of performance makes her a compelling candidate for Bud Light, especially as the brand considers options in responding to past criticism. 'Beer brands pay for reach, resilience, and relevance - and Sweeney delivers all three, so it would not be surprising if a Bud Light endorsement deal were to approach or potentially reach the seven-figure range.' The ad featuring Dylan prompted a national boycott and a steep decline in Bud Light's market position. Although Anheuser-Busch executives have attempted to stabilize the brand through partnerships with celebrities like Peyton Manning, Emmitt Smith, and Post Malone, Bud Light regained only 1.2 percentage points of its lost market share from May 2023 to February 2024. After the criticism, the company's CEO Michel Doukeris said the beer brand was making slow progress in recovering its customer base, adding: 'It's not at the fast pace that we were expecting or that we've been working for, but nevertheless, progress is in place.' Fresh ideas: Fox News contributor Jimmy Failla proposed the bold marketing ploy starring Sydney to help revive Bud Light's declining sales In a comment article on Tuesday Op-Ed, Jimmy Failla wrote: 'Hire Sydney Sweeney to be your next pitchperson immediately because she's everything your brand needs to get back on its feet.' Sydney's campaign for American Eagle, which used the tagline 'Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans', led to a 23 per cent increase in the clothing brand's stock. However, the ad also drew criticism from some commentators who accused American Eagle of using racially coded language. Critics claimed the pun on 'great genes' referenced Sydney's ancestry and suggested eugenics-related themes. The American Eagle add even caught the attention of President Donald Trump who rushed to the actress's defense against the 'woke' mafia coming for her after learning that she has been a registered Republican since last June. The president said: 'Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the "HOTTEST" ad out there. It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are "flying off the shelves". Go get 'em Sydney!' American Eagle has since denied the controversy surrounding the axd, stating on social media: 'Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans' is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story.' Sydney also defended the campaign, saying in a press release that the brand makes her feel 'confident and comfortable in her own skin'. If a deal with Bud Light ever actually comes to fruition, it could be a major boost for Anheuser-Busch. For now, no deal has been officially announced.
