Sydney Sweeney Called Out, Bathwater Soap Reaction
Back in May, Sydney Sweeney sparked a huge, collective side-eye from the masses when she announced that she is selling her bathwater to her male fans. In a collaboration with men's soap company Dr. Squatch, the 27-year-old star explained that bars of soap had been infused with 'real' traces of her very own bathwater, 'making every guy's fantasy' come true. If you're wondering, the product is called 'Sydney's Bathwater Bliss,' and in a press release, Sydney said: 'When your fans start asking for your bathwater, you can either ignore it, or turn it into a bar of Dr. Squatch soap… Hopefully, this helps guys wake up to the realities of conventional personal care products and pushes them towards natural.'Another quote from the official release read: 'It channels two of the best places on Earth: the great outdoors and Sydney Sweeney's bathtub.' Needless to say, the vast majority of people were left unimpressed by this venture, with many criticizing Sydney for capitalizing on misogyny. One tweet that summarizes the discourse reads: 'capitalising off of patriarchy by making yourself the product is so dystopian.' At the time, Sydney brushed off the controversy, and suggested that her ultimate end goal with the collab was to get people talking about her. When E! News asked her about the soap at the premiere of her Apple TV+ movie Echo Valley, the star quipped: 'I think it's more fun to see everyone else talk about it.'And when asked how the concept even came about, Sydney confirmed: 'I pitched it.' Since then, public favor toward Sydney has soured even more, with the star taking part in another controversial ad — this time, for American Eagle jeans. The campaign, which was unveiled last month, seemingly focuses on Sydney's blonde hair and blue eyes in tandem with the tagline: 'Sydney Sweeney has great jeans [genes],' which sparked fierce backlash. Almost immediately, the campaign was accused of implicitly glorifying whiteness and promoting eugenics, and American Eagle's decision to double down on the campaign only triggered more criticism. The whole thing came to a head when the White House defended the ad, and President Donald Trump even heaped praise on Sydney after BuzzFeed confirmed that she officially registered as a Republican in 2024. Throughout all of this, Sydney was also being roasted for the video part of the campaign, where she speaks with a vocal fry so intense that she is almost incoherent, with many accusing the star of making this choice to both infantalize and sexualize herself for the male gaze. And while Sydney has not acknowledged the reaction to her American Eagle ad, she did comment on the response to her bathwater soap in a new interview with the Wall Street Journal. 'I think it's important to have a finger on the pulse of what people are saying, because everything is a conversation with the audience,' she began. Referencing the soap directly, Sydney added: 'It was mainly the girls making comments about it, which I thought was really interesting. They all loved the idea of Jacob Elordi's bathwater." Suffice to say, this take has not gone down well. For reference, Sydney's comment about her Euphoria costar Jacob Elordi is in relation to his 2023 movie Saltburn, which includes a very specific — and infamous — bathwater scene. While joke products, namely candles, referencing Jacob's bathwater became available online after the movie's release, Jacob himself was not involved in any of them — nor did he promote them. Needless to say, his actual, real-life bathwater was absolutely not in any of the products either. With all of this in mind, the two instances aren't at all comparable — especially as the general reaction to the Jacob Elordi products at the time was mostly bewilderment and disgust. And people have been quick to react to Sydney's latest comments on X, with many questioning her apparent decision to alienate women. Quote-tweeting a Pop Base tweet about Sydney's response, one viral tweet reads: 'yess girl throw women under the bus that'll really help you beat those allegations.''Not her trying to switch this on other women when her whole existence is so male centered, especially maga men,' somebody else wrote. 'Bcoz Jacob Elordi was not selling his bath water in any way shape or form. It was a part of movie, people had fun with it, fans made bathwater candles, but he didn't go out endorsing it, and making money off of being disgusting. This ain't the feminist gotcha you think it is,' another pointed more tweeted: 'alienating your female fanbase and throwing your friend and co worker under the bus over a bath water candle that was being sold without his permission is so funnysjksj.' While somebody else concluded: 'white women love to scream misogyny to avoid facing valid criticism." What do you make of Sydney's response? Let me know in the comments below!
