Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle ad sparks controversy online and pleases Donald Trump

In the languor of summer, investors were the first to sense the opportunity, sending American Eagle Outfitters' stock soaring by about 20% in a matter of days. The reason: a new ad campaign featuring American actress Sydney Sweeney. It was a throwback to the 1980s, with a blonde star leaning into her car engine while the viewer's gaze follows her neckline, before wiping her hands on the back pockets of her jeans and speeding off in her Ford Mustang: 1.9 million views on Instagram. At another moment, the camera lingers on Sweeney's blue jeans before moving up to her blue eyes: "My jeans are blue," says the actress after praising the passing down of genes from one's parents. "Sydney Sweeney has great jeans," concludes a voice-over, creating ambiguity between "jeans" and "genes." At a third moment, viewed by 4.5 million online users, the actress puts up a poster of herself where the word "genes" is crossed out and replaced with "jeans." Whether seen as highly glamorous or hopelessly outdated, investors don't care, since the controversy has been spreading online: "Supremacist dog whistles," accused influencer Chris Glover, known as GenericArtDad, on TikTok. "The new American Eagle Ad with Sydney Sweeney? That's Eugenics. Nazi propaganda. And it's blatant. Like, you don't even need media literacy. It's that on the nose obvious," echoed author Elle M. Drew on Threads.

After Ferrand-Prévot's triumph in the Tour de France Femmes, France 'is now enamored by women's cycling'

For 36 years, France had longed to see one of its riders finish the Tour de France wearing the yellow jersey. That wait ended on Sunday, August 3, in Châtel, Haute-Savoie, located in the Alps. "Pauline Ferrand-Prévot has found her Holy Grail," wrote Le Soir. The leader of the Visma-Lease a Bike team, winner of the 2025 edition and the "new Sun Queen," has "captivated" the country in recent days, wrote the Belgian daily. Like many international outlets, the paper celebrated the women's version of the Tour, packed with drama and standout moments. This was especially true after the men's race, where the suspense was short-lived. "The fourth edition of the modern Tour was predicted to be one for the history books (...) And it certainly delivered," observed American outlet The Athletic. Like other foreign publications, The Guardian highlighted the public enthusiasm surrounding the race, validating the vision of its director, former cyclist Marion Rousse. Rousse remarked that she was delighted "not to have seen a Tour de France Femmes, but a Tour de France" along the roadside. Record viewership figures (25.7 million viewers on France Télévisions) confirmed the enthusiasm.

'Musical cocoon': Polish mountain town hosts Chopin fest

Inside, the Warsaw National Philharmonic Orchestra is preparing to open the 80th edition of the International Chopin Piano Festival. "I've loved Chopin for so many years!" said Erin Gao, a 33-year-old from China, who travelled to hear the composer's works while vacationing in Europe. Mike Righton, a 73-year-old from Texas, shared that enthusiasm. "This is my fifth year here. I love this festival -- there are lots of concerts, and the place is very pretty," he said. Organisers expect around 2,000 spectators over the nine-day event that runs until August 9 in this town of just 4,000 residents, where Frederic Chopin's legacy is visible everywhere. "Above all, this festival brings together true enthusiasts of Chopin's music," said Piotr Paleczny, the festival's artistic director. Streets are adorned with posters and statues of the composer and shops welcome tourists with souvenirs bearing his image. It was here in 1826, when the town was part of Germany and known as Bad Reinerz, where a 16-year-old Chopin gave his first concert abroad. That performance inspired the creation of the festival, which has attracted many of classical music's biggest names since its founding in 1946. One of this year's performers is Warsaw-born pianist Julia Lozowska, 23. "I grew up with Chopin. I love many other composers, of course, but he's the one I understand best," she said. Among the festival's headliners is Aristo Sham, 29, a prodigy from Hong Kong and winner of the 2025 Van Cliburn Competition. He is launching his world tour in Duszniki-Zdroj. "To play in the same venue as him, to follow in his footsteps -- it's a huge honour and privilege," Sham said after a rehearsal, his eyes resting on a bust of Chopin. "Here, we're in a musical cocoon, just playing music in an enchanting setting for an incredibly enthusiastic audience."
