Trump sparks backlash after comparing Sydney Sweeney and Taylor Swift based on their looks.

Trump Sparks Outrage Over Comments About Sydney Sweeney and Taylor Swift
President Donald Trump has stirred controversy once again—this time for weighing in on a denim ad campaign and comparing two high-profile celebrities: Sydney Sweeney and Taylor Swift.

The Ad That Started It All
The buzz began when American Eagle launched its Fall 2025 denim collection in collaboration with The White Lotus star Sydney Sweeney.

One ad featured Sweeney putting up a poster of herself in denim, reading:
“Sydney Sweeney has great genes”—with “genes” crossed out and replaced with “jeans.”

While the brand claimed the ad focused solely on denim, many critics accused it of pushing a racially insensitive pun, with some even linking it to white supremacy. Still, American Eagle stood by the campaign, insisting it was all about the jeans.

Trump Publicly Supports Sweeney
Amid the backlash, the 79-year-old president jumped into the debate via Truth Social. He applauded the ad and praised Sweeney, emphasizing her status as a “registered Republican.”

“Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the HOTTEST ad out there,” Trump wrote. “The jeans are flying off the shelves. Go get ‘em, Sydney!”

Then He Took a Ja.b at Taylor Swift
In contrast, Trump slammed Jaguar for its “woke” commercial that aired for 30 seconds without showing a car. He tied the failed ad to the resignation of Jaguar Land Rover CEO Adrian Mardell and called the campaign a disaster.

He didn’t stop there. Trump escalated his comments by dragging Taylor Swift into the conversation.

“Just look at woke singer Taylor Swift,” he continued. “Ever since I said I can’t stand her—HATE—she was booed at the Super Bowl and is NO LONGER HOT.”

Trump concluded with a familiar theme:

“Being WOKE is for losers. Being Republican is what you want to be.”

Swift’s Super Bowl Moment Revisited
Trump referred to Swift’s appearance at the Super Bowl earlier this year, where she was booed while supporting her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. However, many have disputed the reason behind the crowd’s reaction.

Swift’s fans were quick to defend her, highlighting her determination to reclaim ownership of her music catalog and her commitment to using her platform to encourage civic participation.

The History Behind Trump’s Dislike of Swift
Trump’s feud with Swift isn’t new. During his last presidential campaign, he publicly declared:

“I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!”

The post came after Swift announced her support for Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and encouraged fans to vote. In response, Trump’s campaign mistakenly circulated an AI-generated fake image of Swift endorsing the Republican ticket—something she never did.

Final Thoughts
Trump’s latest statements have reignited debates around celebrity, politics, and gender, especially when public figures use their platforms to insult or elevate others based on appearance or political views. While some praised his support of Sweeney, many condemned his attack on Swift as inappropriate and demeaning.
