American Eagle responds to critics over ad with Sydney Sweeney, saying it was always about the jeans
NEW YORK -- Teen retailer American Eagle Outfitters has a message to its critics, who took issue over its denim ad campaign with 27-year-old actor Sydney Sweeney that sparked a debate over race and Western beauty standards. The campaign, the retailer said, was always about the jeans. In a statement posted on American Eagle's Instagram account on Friday, the retailer said the ad campaign '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.' The message marked the first time the teen retailer responded to days of backlash since the ad with the tagline 'Sydney Sweeney has great jeans' launched last week. In the run-up to the ad blitz, the company's chief marketing officer told trade media outlets that it included 'clever, even provocative language' and was 'definitely going to push buttons." It's unclear if the company knew how much controversy the ad could raise. Most of the negative reception focused on videos that used the word 'genes' instead of 'jeans' when discussing the blonde-haired, blue-eyed actor known for the HBO series 'Euphoria' and 'White Lotus.' Critics found the most troubling was a teaser video in which Sweeney says, 'Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color. My jeans are blue.' The video appeared on American Eagle's Facebook page and other social media channels but is not part of the ad campaign. Some critics saw the wordplay as a nod, either unintentional or deliberate, to eugenics, a discredited theory that held humanity could be improved through selective breeding for certain traits. Other commenters accused detractors of reading too much into the campaign's message. Some marketing experts said the buzz is always good even if it's not uniformly positive. 'If you try to follow all the rules, you'll make lots of people happy, but you'll fail,' Allen Adamson, co-founder of marketing consultancy Metaforce said. 'The rocket won't take off.'

And just like that… its over, thank God
Somewhere Kim Cattrall is laughing. 'And Just Like That..' is dead. This will be the 'Sex and the City' reboot's last season. In a letter posted to social media, creator Michael Patrick King wrote of its demise. 'Sarah Jessica Parker and I held off announcing the news until now because we didn't want the word 'final' to overshadow the fun of watching the season.' Advertisement 6 Cynthia Nixon, Kristin Davis, and Sarah Jessica Parker wearing very fancy togs in a cafe scene from *And Just Like That…* Photograph by Craig Blankenhorn/Max However, there was no fun in watching 'And Just Like That…' Only frustration they made it in the first place. In episode seven of the just-aired third season, Anthony Marentino, played by Mario Cantone grumbles, 'Just when you thought it couldn't get worse.' He was talking about a karaoke performance, but it felt like a metaphor for the whole thing. Advertisement Every week the bar fell lower and lower, and it became obvious HBO killed the golden goose. They turned an enduring cultural phenomenon — what started in the late 90s as a sharp and witty aspirational series about four stylish friends unapologetically sowing their oats in an ever-changing New York City — into a woke joke. 6 In 'And Just Like That' Sarah Jessica Parker's character Carrie Bradshaw wears a ridiculous hat around Central Park. GC Images The entire endeavor felt like reparations for progressive whinge Cynthia Nixon, who has never stopped complaining about the lack of diversity in the original series. Advertisement 'And Just like That…' debuted in 2021, in the midst of the great awokening. They killed rich guy Mr. Big, added a few racial minorities, two insufferable nonbinary characters (Che and Charlotte's daughter Rock) and mirroring reality, turned Nixon's Miranda Hobbes into a lesbian. It went from appointment television to checklist TV. Critics hated it. This season was less invested in the identity aspect, which made their paint by numbers approach all the more glaring. There was no substance underneath the hood. In season 3, Parker's Carrie Bradshaw takes a stab at historical fiction. She meets her biographer neighbor who is meant to be a Ron Chernow-like figure. Advertisement 6 Lisa Todd Wexley and Charlotte York wear impractical clothing to go 'glamming' on Governor's Island in 'And Just Like That…' season 3. Photograph by Craig Blankenhorn/Max They swap manuscripts, and he marvels over her prose like she's Jane Austen. It's silly. An overbearing Charlotte York deals with her husband's cancer diagnosis, real estate maven Seema Patel has to give up her chauffeured car after getting shafted by Ryan Serhant, while filmmaker Lisa Rodd Wexley flirts with a coworker. Miranda sleeps with a closeted nun played by Rosie O'Donnell and is once again gratuitously naked — an unsightly throughline. In other words, it should have come with a trigger warning. 6 The original 'Sex and the City' cast wore stylish but relatively relatable clothing. Moviestore/Shutterstock Then there was the fashion. In the original series stylist Patricia Field expertly molded four archetypes, setting real life trends and turning luxury labels like Manolo Blahnik and Jimmy Choo into household names while Carrie's Fendi Baguette became an 'It' bag. Carrie was eclectic and cool, the others chic and polished. This latest version, the women aren't wearing clothing as much as they are ridiculous costumes. In one scene, Carrie struts around Central Park in a giant Holly Hobbie hat and matching prairie dress. Ditto for Lisa and Charlotte, who always look like Bergdorf mannequins — even at school drop off. Advertisement 6 Sara Ramirez played Miranda Hobbes' love interest Che, one of the two nonbinary characters in 'And Just Like That' Photograph by Craig Blankenhorn/Max It's like the athleisure revolution never happened. No one in New York dresses like this. The original sold a Cosmo-soaked version of New York City where friendships were unbreakable, sex was plenty and the air was optimistic.

Photograph by Craig Blankenhorn/HBO Max But in their 50s, they all seem to be struggling more than ever. And yes, pathetic. A younger colleague told me this chapter made her sad and was more of a cautionary tale for 20 somethings. It took the air out of the fantasy — and ruined the sex.
