Sydney Sweeney's Bath Water Soap Priced At $2K On eBay After Selling Out In 'Seconds' Due To High Demand

Yahoo6 hours ago

Sydney Sweeney's partnership with Dr. Squatch, in which her actual bath water was used to make bars of soap, left fans scrambling with their credit cards ready to snap up the limited edition product.
The actress, who is often sexualized online, with netizens making provocative comments about her body, has since reacted to the buzz her bath water has caused, while taking credit for the idea.
Sydney Sweeney also recently confirmed that she's single again, months after splitting from her partner of 7 years, Jonathan Davino.
Bars of soap infused with Sydney Sweeney's "actual bathwater" have caused a frenzy, selling out in mere seconds upon their release and subsequently appearing on eBay for as much as $2,000.
The limited-edition product went on sale on Friday, June 6, at approximately 12:00 p.m. EST and was listed for just $8. However, the soap vanished almost instantly from the brand's website, leaving countless fans in a digital queue, with some reporting wait times of over 250 minutes before the site ultimately crashed.
Seemingly shocked at how fast the soap bars became unavailable, some fans took to social media to allege the products never went on sale. But the company squashed the claims, writing, per NBC: "Nah, it was there. People just bought it in .0001 seconds."
Dr. Squatch later confirmed the site's overload, stating on social media, "Y'all crashed the site. The Sydney's Bathwater Bliss launch has been insane! We seriously appreciate the Squatch-sized enthusiasm."
"We're working hard behind the scenes to make sure the right folks – on a first come, first served basis – get their hands on the bricc. Thanks for your patience," the company added.
The soap is now listed on eBay for $100 (£73) to $2,000 (£1,478), according to The Independent.
Sweeney is one of the most sexualized actresses in Hollywood, as some fans have made it a habit to make unsolicited comments about her body. Hence, it's no surprise that many would go wild for a bar of soap that contains her bath water.
The 27-year-old actress herself confirmed the inclusion of her bath water, telling GQ Magazine, "When we were at the [Dr. Squatch] shoot, they had a tub for me. And I actually got in there and I took some soap, and we had a nice little bath, and they took the water. So it's my real bath water."
The "Anyone But You" star reacted to the buzz the product has caused during the New York premiere of her latest film, "Echo Valley."
Addressing the online chatter, she told E! News that she "pitched" the idea of the bath water soap and "thinks it's more fun to see everyone else talk about it."
Back in March, the "Madame Web" actress decried how she's been over-sexualized all through her acting career.
Things reached fever pitch following her hosting gig on "Saturday Night Live," where many fans made what she perceived as "weird" comments about her.
In an interview with Variety at the time, Sweeney admitted that the constant remarks make her feel like she has "no control" over online discourse about her own appearance.
"I see it, and I just can't allow myself to have a reaction. I don't know how to explain it - I'm still trying to figure it out myself," Sweeney told the news outlet when asked about the viral reaction to her "SNL" debut.
"People feel connected and free to be able to speak about me in whatever way they want because they believe that I've signed my life away. That I'm not on a human level anymore, because I'm an actor. That these characters are for everybody else, but then me as Sydney is not for me anymore," Sweeney said. "It's this weird relationship that people have with me that I have no control or say over."
Sweeney caused quite a stir during her Thursday appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" to promote her upcoming movie "Echo Valley."
On the show, she admitted that she's "kind of psychotic" on set and feels "bad" for her costars while filming certain projects.
"I, like, jump in and out," Sweeney told Fallon after he asked how she prepares for her roles. "It's kind of psychotic."
"Like, you're happy and fun, and then…" the late-night host said, to which Sweeney added, "And then they say, 'Action!' and then I'm screaming and crying. And then they call, 'Cut!' and I go, 'What's wrong?'"
Prior to the craze over her bath water soap bar, Sweeney had to deal with a sad situation in her personal life after calling it quits with her partner of 7 years, Jonathan Davino.
The former couple started dating in 2018 and got engaged in 2022. In an interview with The Sunday Times, she confirmed that she's single again, months after multiple outlets previously reported that they'd called off their engagement and ended their relationship.
"I'm learning a lot about myself, spending more time with my friends," she added. "And I'm loving it."

Miley Cyrus Heckled By Furious Fan Who Paid $800 For Her Film Premiere Expecting It To Be A Concert

Miley Cyrus found herself at the center of a wave of backlash following the film premiere of her "Something Beautiful" project. Much of the criticism began at the event itself, when fans, who believed they were attending a concert, were shocked to discover it was simply a traditional film screening. Afterward, a viral video of the event spread online, sparking further outrage from some attendees. Amid the controversy, some fans have come to Miley Cyrus' defense, criticizing the upset audience members for not doing their due diligence to understand the nature of the event beforehand. On June 6, Miley Cyrus held a film premiere for "Something Beautiful, a project that had been highly anticipated by many of her fans. The singer, who attended the event dressed in a bedazzled, body-hugging gown with thin straps, arrived in high spirits while waving to fans with a smile. She even took a moment to joke with photographers on the red carpet, just before the event began. However, what was meant to be a celebration ahead of the theatrical release of the project quickly turned chaotic when fans, who had mistaken the event for a concert, realized that it wasn't the case. As seen in a now-viral clip, one bold fan then called out the singer from the crowd, saying, "We thought this was a concert! We paid $800! Are you actually going to sing?" Some also echoed similar sentiments that altered the singer's mood. Though Cyrus eventually broke into an a cappella performance of "The Climb" to appease the upset attendee and others who felt similarly, it appeared to fall short of satisfying many of these disappointed fans. It is worth noting that Cyrus never advertised her film premiere as a concert. However, disgruntled fans may have been misled into believing the singer would be performing at the event due to false advertisements from third-party resale sites, as seen in a screenshot posted online, which are unaffiliated with Cyrus. Unsurprisingly, some of these fans took to social media to slam the singer, accusing her of scamming them out of their hard-earned funds. One angry individual claimed that they had spent thousands of dollars flying in with their daughters to attend the event and now wants their money back. "This was advertised as a CONCERT," the fan said. "This was a rip-off. I want my money back and an apology. FALSE ADVERTISING x100! All the people in the lobby were angry at being scammed." Another irate fan claimed she spent her "rent" money to purchase what she thought were "concert" tickets. The fan penned, "False advertising 1000%. My favorite artist of all time, I couldn't be more disappointed. You failed everyone at the beacon tonight…" One more fan claimed that Cyrus didn't make it clear that it was a film and not a concert. They added, "[I] never felt more scammed paying hundreds for something that was basically a marathon viewing of music videos. Something Beautiful? Something Scammy? In the wake of the backlash, some individuals defended Cyrus and branded the reaction from disgruntled fans as "disrespectful." "This makes me mad. We already know about her vocal issues. People are so disrespectful. Props for Miley for evening singing, I know she was irritated by that," someone said. "I don't care if you paid $3,000 - why would you disrespect someone like that, especially if you're that big of a 'fan'...? You clearly did not read the site or were ripped off by a reseller," a netizen commented. "I'm just so sad… her face. How do people have the guts to be this rude to her? Like, seriously, people, have you no respect for her feelings? She's giving us so much this era. This is just unacceptable," another fan said. In 2023, Cyrus received similar backlash over her comments about not desiring to get back on the road. "Singing for hundreds of thousands of people isn't really the thing that I love. There's no connection. There's no safety," she said at the time in an interview with British Vogue. "It's also not natural. It's so isolating because if you're in front of 100,000 people, then you are alone." Her remarks were deemed as her not being appreciative of her fans, which the singer later refuted in an Instagram post. "This has nothing to do with a lack of appreciation for the fans and everything to do with I simply don't want to get ready in a locker room," she wrote. "I just don't want to sleep on a moving bus. It isn't what's best for me right NOW." During a recent chat with Zane Lowe on Apple Music, Cyrus opened up about the importance of sobriety in her life. It has been over five years since she first explored a sober lifestyle in 2019. Sharing a powerful reflection, the "Hannah Montana" star shared: "I've learned this about myself over the years. Sobriety is—that's like my God. I need it, I live for it. It's changed my entire life." While Cyrus had previously acknowledged relapsing during the pandemic, a moment she discussed with Lowe in 2020, the singer now looks back on that period with clarity and acceptance. Reflecting on her "Plastic Hearts" era, she said: "I was so close to who is sitting here right now, but life had more to teach me." Cyrus added, "It had more lessons for me. I know I needed to fall one more time. It just never would've happened this way. I just wouldn't have been sitting here. There were times between last time and now, you know they hurt, I'm not proud of them, definitely not my best moments, not some of my best work—you know any of that."

'Not happy': Fans react amid sad news around Tony Squires and Candice Warner

Fans are expressing their sadness after it was revealed on Saturday that long-running sports program 'The Back Page' has been axed after 29 years. Tony Squires, who has hosted the show on Fox Sports for the last 12 years, confirmed the sad news but admitted he wasn't surprised. The sport talk-show has been running since 1997, but will wrap up for good after three more episodes. 'Ironically, I wrote a story in 2021 saying television shows don't usually last 25 years,' Squires told . 'They're like animals on the Savannah - very few of them die of old age. 'There's always something young and exciting with big nasty teeth, coming to get them. Well, The Back Page is now 29 years old, I've been hosting it for almost 13 years ... and we've been got. To be honest, it wasn't a shock.' The late, great Mike Gibson was the show's first host back in 1997, and held the role up until 2012. Peter FitzSimons, Billy Birmingham, Tracey Holmes and Jeff Wells were the panellists when it first began, and in recent times it regularly featured journalist Robert Craddock, ironwoman Candice Warner, NRL legend Greg Alexander and AFL great Brad Johnson. Warner, the wife of Aussie cricket great David, became a weekly panellist in 2022 and used the show as a launching pad for her burgeoning media career. Former AFL player-turned-radio host Ryan Fitzgerald was also a regular panellist, as were Socceroos legends Robbie Slater and Mark Bosnich. 'It's been a privilege to host a show once run by the legendary Mike Gibson,' said Squires, who's expected to stay on with Fox Sports in another role. 'But most of all it's been fun - like sitting at the pub with your mates pretending to know a shitload about sport. 'I'm going to miss it. Not because it was a job, but because it was my social life. I got to hang out with Kelli Underwood, Ryan Fitzgerald, Kerry O'Keeffe, Candice Warner, Brad Johnson, Ben Dixon and Robert Craddock - the most enthusiastic man on the planet. 'We've interviewed hundreds of sporting superstars over the years. From Rod Laver to Gout Gout – a 17-year-old kid who lit up the screen on his first live TV interview show just a few weeks ago.' Fox Sports boss Steve Crawley said the decision to cut 'The Back Page' is not a cost-cutting move, denying it has anything to do with Foxtel's new owners DAZN. 'At Fox Sports we have introduced a number of new shows in recent times and we have more in final planning,' he said. 'The Back Page has been entertaining audiences for nearly three decades; there are very few shows that can claim that. 'Entertainment programming is a tough business in that it's like life itself, how everything has a lifespan. Even the great shows like 'Hey Hey It's Saturday' and 'The Back Page'. In a big country with different codes of football and unique tastes, it's extremely rare for a sports show to survive, let alone for almost 30 years.' RELATED: Fresh blow for Panthers as four-time premiership winner retires Tennis world blasts 'classless' act after French Open women's final Crawley commended Squires and the team that made the show so successful. 'Host Tony Squires, panellists Crash (Craddock) and Fitzy, Candice Warner and Kelli Underwood and producer Matt Parslow have put in so much hard work,' he said. 'We'll celebrate Back Page over the final three weekly episodes.' Fans of the show took to social media on Saturday to express their sadness at hearing it's been axed. "Not happy at all about this decision," one person wrote. Another commented: "Great show. Looked forward to it every Tuesday. Can't believe it is ending." The Back Page Australia's longest-running television sports show is closing down after 29 years. Only 3 more episodes to go.I liked it best when Gibbo was host & Billy Birmingham, Peter 'Chippy' Frilingos, Mike Coleman & David Hookes used to chew the sporting fat. Crash ok too. — OBBY (@OBBY001) June 7, 2025
