American Eagle Stock Surges After Trump Praises Sydney Sweeney For ‘Hottest' Ad

American Eagle stock skyrocketed Monday after President Donald Trump praised actress Sydney Sweeney for having the 'HOTTEST ad out there' amid a firestorm of controversy over an advertisement critics have accused of promoting eugenics, which some conservatives have instead hailed as a rebuke of 'wokeness.'

(Photo by Brendan SMIALOWSKI / AFP) (Photo by BRENDAN SMIALOWSKI/AFP via Getty Images) AFP via Getty Images American Eagle's stock price was up nearly 23% as of 3 p.m. EDT on Monday, a steep increase that started hours earlier, after Trump made a post on Truth Social praising a divisive commercial starring Sweeney the company debuted last week. Earlier Monday, Trump praised Sweeney's controversial marketing stint: 'It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying off the shelves.' Go get 'em Sydney!' Trump hailed Sweeney's apparent voter registration after multiple reports over the weekend indicated she is registered as a Republican voter in Florida. Trump compared Sweeney unfavorably to 'Woke singer Taylor Swift,' whom he previously said he 'hates' after the singer endorsed his election opponent Vice President Kamala Harris in October, calling her 'NO LONGER HOT.' In his post Monday, Trump cited the recent resignation of Jaguar CEO Adrian Mardell, who stepped down months after the British luxury vehicle company drew 'woke' allegations for a colorful and diverse rebrand, though the company said his resignation was unrelated to the controversy and had been planned. Trump said Jaguar should have learned from Bud Light, referencing the conservative-led boycotts against the beer company after it sent transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney a customized beer can with her face on it in 2023. 'The tide has seriously turned — Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be. Thank you for your attention to this matter!' Trump said. In a marketing video for American Eagle, Sweeney dons a pair of the brand's jeans and a denim jacket and makes a pun on the words 'jeans' and 'genes.' 'Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color. My jeans are blue,' Sweeney says, as the camera pans up to her face and reveals her blue eyes. The ad triggered backlash from critics on social media who felt the ad comes close to promoting eugenics, implying Sweeney's blonde-haired, blue-eyed genes are more desirable than other traits. Shalini Shankar, a Northwestern University anthropology professor who studies youth and advertising, told CNN she believes American Eagle was 'aligning themselves with a white nationalist, MAGA-friendly identity,' stating the company is 'trying to rebrand themselves for the present moment, and language is very deliberately used here.' How Have Sweeney And American Eagle Responded To The Controversy? Sweeney has not yet publicly addressed the controversy over her American Eagle ad. The company posted a statement over the weekend defending its marketing campaign: ''Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans' is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story. We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way. Great jeans look good on everyone.' A handful of high-profile Republicans have championed Sweeney's ad as a rebuke to 'woke' culture, including Vice President JD Vance, who backed the actress in an appearance on the conservative 'Ruthless' podcast over the weekend. 'My political advice to the Democrats is, continue to tell everybody who thinks Sydney Sweeney is attractive is a Nazi,' Vance said. In a post on X last week, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) wrote: 'Wow. Now the crazy Left has come out against beautiful women. I'm sure that will poll well….' White House communications director Steven Cheung slammed the backlash in a post on X last week, calling it 'cancel culture run amok' and 'warped, moronic, and dense liberal thinking.' Tangent Sweeney, who is best known for her roles in the HBO series 'Euphoria' and 'The White Lotus,' attended a screening of her upcoming film 'Americana' on Sunday night in Los Angeles. TMZ published footage of a heckler calling Sweeney's ad 'racist' as she arrived at the event. Further Reading What has America learned from the Sydney Sweeney situation? We asked the experts (CNN)

Donald Trump Insulted Taylor Swift While Praising Sydney Sweeney In A New Rant

President Donald Trump is continuing to respond very normally to news that Sydney Sweeney is a registered Republican. The actor found herself amid backlash following her "great jeans" American Eagle ad, in which she said, 'Genes are passed down from parent to offspring, often determining traits like eye color, personality, and even hair color. My jeans are blue." Given the political climate, some criticized the ad as a racist "dog whistle." Related: This weekend, BuzzFeed was the first major outlet to confirm that Sydney is registered as a Republican in Florida, according to publicly available voter registration records. When Trump was seemingly told about her registration in an interview this morning, he responded, 'She's a registered Republican? Oh, now I love her ad!' Shortly after the interview, Trump hit Truth Social with another take: "Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the 'HOTTEST' ad out there. It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying off the shelves.' Go get 'em Sydney!" Indeed, Sydney's Ultra Wide-Leg Jean is currently listed as out of stock on American Eagle's website. Interestingly, the success of American Eagle sub-brand Aerie has been attributed to its emphasis on diversity in its branding. Related: Trump compared the ad to car company Jaguar's viral "Copy Nothing" campaign last year, which featured a diverse selection of models and was branded "woke" by the right: "On the other side of the ledger, Jaguar did a stupid, and seriously WOKE advertisement, THAT IS A TOTAL DISASTER! The CEO just resigned in disgrace, and the company is in absolute turmoil. Who wants to buy a Jaguar after looking at that disgraceful ad." Related: He further evoked the Bud Light boycotts, which began after transgender TikToker Dylan Mulvaney posted a less-than-a-minute-long video on Instagram promoting the company's giveaway. The President wrote, "Shouldn't they have learned a lesson from Bud Lite, which went Woke and essentially destroyed, in a short campaign, the Company. The market cap destruction has been unprecedented, with BILLIONS OF DOLLARS SO FOOLISHLY LOST." "Or just look at Woke singer Taylor Swift," he continued, taking another shot at the singer. "Ever since I alerted the world as to what she was by saying on TRUTH that I can't stand her (HATE!). She was booed out of the Super Bowl and became, NO LONGER HOT. The tide has seriously turned — Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" Related: Similarly, Trump posted (unprovoked) back in May, "Has anyone noticed that, since I said 'I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT,' she's no longer 'HOT?'" It's worth noting that Taylor is reportedly enjoying some downtime after her record-breaking Eras tour. Cool! Very normal stuff from the President!
