In a recent feud within the entertainment industry, Sydney Sweeney's representative has issued a scathing response to Hollywood producer Carol Baum after she criticized the actress's looks and acting skills. Sweeney's team expressed disappointment in Baum's decision to attack another woman instead of sharing her expertise and experience.

Baum, known for her work on films like "Father of the Bride" and "Shining Through," made the critical remarks during a screening of her 1988 film "Dead Ringers." Speaking about Sweeney, Baum admitted to not understanding the hype surrounding the actress and even referred to one of her movies, "Anyone But You," as "unwatchable."

As a professor at the USC School of Cinematic Arts, Baum further questioned her students about Sweeney's appeal, expressing her disbelief at the actress's popularity. However, no one was able to provide a satisfactory answer. Baum raised the thought-provoking question of whether filmmakers would cast Sweeney in their movies solely to secure funding or if they genuinely believed in her talent.

Fans of Sydney Sweeney were quick to defend the "Euphoria" star, pointing out her achievements and success at a young age. At only 26, she has received two Emmy nominations, headlined and produced two successful films, and garnered a significant following. Social media exploded with support for Sweeney, condemning Baum's comments as a form of internalized misogyny.

While Baum's comments went viral, Sweeney's representative responded, stating that it was disgraceful for someone with Baum's industry experience to attack another woman in such a manner. They deemed it unfortunate that Baum thought it appropriate to impart such teachings to her students.

Sydney Sweeney rose to fame for her role as Cassie Howard in the hit HBO teen drama "Euphoria," which earned her an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. Despite mixed reviews, Sweeney's movie "Anyone But You" reportedly grossed over $200 million worldwide, making it the highest-grossing R-rated romantic comedy since "Bridget Jones's Baby" in 2016.

The feud between Sweeney and Baum highlights the ongoing issues of body image and female empowerment in the entertainment industry. As Sweeney's star continues to rise, she stands as a symbol of resilience and talent, proving that success should not be defined solely by one's appearance.
