American Eagle stock rises after Trump praises Sydney Sweeney ad amid backlash
Clothing brand American Eagle may be entrenched in controversy over its latest ad campaign, but company shares were only rising on Monday, Aug. 4. The retailer's stock rose more than 23% after President Donald Trump defended its ad starring Sydney Sweeney. Critics have argued that the campaign, which launched on July 23, as well as its slogan "Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans," was a double entendre endorsing eugenics, the pseudoscience that promotes the belief that some genetic features are better than others. After a reporter informed Trump that Sweeney was allegedly registered as a Republican in Florida, the president applauded the "Euphoria" star's campaign. BuzzFeed first reported Sweeney's party affiliation on Aug. 2, though USA TODAY was unable to verify whether a person in public voting records named Sydney B. Sweeney is the Emmy-nominated actor, whose middle name is Bernice. "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!" Trump wrote on an Aug. 4 Truth Social post. "Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" Despite an initial 16% boost upon the ad's release, American Eagle shares were down over the past week as backlash escalated, according to reporting from Reuters and CNBC. However, following Trump's praise, the stock saw a 23.53% increase at the market's close on Aug. 4. What have JD Vance, Americans Eagle and Sweeney said? Vice President JD Vance addressed the ad during a Friday, Aug. 1 episode of the conservative "Ruthless" podcast, where he poked fun at outrage toward the ad, quipping, "I actually thought that one of the lessons (Democrats) might take is 'we're going to be less crazy.'" "And the lesson they have apparently taken is 'we're going to attack people as Nazis for thinking Sydney Sweeney is beautiful,'" he said on the podcast. "My political advice to the Democrats is continue to (call) everybody who thinks Sydney Sweeney is attractive is a Nazi." Some critics have argued that the ad promotes the idea of a conventionally attractive, blonde, white woman with blue eyes being the archetype of "good genes." While Sweeney has not publicly addressed the backlash against the ad, American Eagle issued a statement on Instagram on Aug. 1. "'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," the statement read. "Great jeans look good on everyone."

31 "Beloved" Celebs People Think Are Actually Terrible
A while back, Reddit user brody0628 asked, "What is a celebrity everyone loves but you think is insufferable?" and people had some stronggggg opinions. Here are celebrities they think are actually bad people — along with some responses from the BuzzFeed Community and this Reddit thread. "Nick Cannon. The fact that the internet makes jokes about how many kids he has or tries to paint him as a good father because he takes his kids to Disney World is disgusting! He couldn't even remember the names of all his kids when asked. Most, if not all, of his kids are going to grow up having no relationship with him." "John Lennon. I know he's been dead for 40 years, but man, he was such a shit person." "John Stamos. He looks like a wax museum version of himself and it seems like his ego is as big as his Disney collection." —jessethecowgirlStamos also once told a story about convincing a woman she was having sex with him when it was really his friend:"[In the mid-eighties] I was in a band. I was playing somewhere in Finland, and there was a girl hanging around who was really drunk and interested in me. I wasn't into her, but my friend was. So the girl came back to my hotel, and I turned the lights down, and we started making out. I said, 'Hold on a second, I've gotta go brush my teeth.' It was dark, I left the room, and I sent in my friend who looked like me. And she thought she was having sex with me, but she was really having sex with my friend."Suggested by jeramoo "Whoopi. She's the boomerest boomer to ever exist. Has no empathy for younger generations and is constantly telling struggling millennials/Gen Z people they don't have it that bad." "Jackie Chan: Hong Kong-born but pro-Beijing. That's enough for me." "Brad Pitt isn't the stand-up guy he portrays! Maybe it was the story about him ... [allegedly] being abusive to his wife in front of his children that turned me off. Definitely not something a nice guy would do!" —quizzydog27 [Editor's note: You can read more about the plane assault allegations here, but Jolie did eventually drop the lawsuit. Pitt has denied there was any physical violence.]Pitt also dated Juliette Lewis when she was 17, and he was a decade by re89245 "I've disliked Jimmy Fallon since his SNL days when it felt like he'd break character in a sketch to get a bigger laugh. Ruffling Donald Trump's hair during his interview pretty much turned me off of him for good." —rachelc43 "Far worse is Jimmy Kimmel — he 'pranks' his family on his show, but they all seem to really hate it. I had to stop watching him during the Trump presidency because all he could do on his show was make 'fat jokes.' Trump does a million wild things; stop making the same cringey and offensive jokes from the early '90s! And if you have any doubts, look up The Man Show — absolutely horrific." —bric4349cd9f2 "Owen Wilson, a seemingly good dad to his sons, [is allegedly a] deadbeat father to his daughter: he underwent a paternity test, still refuses to meet her, and just threw money at her (he dated the child's mother on and off for five years)." —bigfinsquidWilson has not responded to these claims beyond a rep saying, 'This is a private matter, and it's not appropriate to comment further.' "Not to speak ill of the dead, but Kobe and the whole rape allegation. ... Not sure why people are so wild about him." "Matthew Broderick. Another example of rich people just not having to face consequences. For anyone that doesn't know, In 1987, he was driving during a head-on collision with another car, which killed a mother and daughter. He paid the equivalent of $175 and served no time." "Jerry Seinfeld. So many people seem to love him, and his show was wildly successful, but I can't stand him at all." "Steven Tyler, for [allegedly] convincing parents to sign a 14-year-old over to him. Then ... dumping her back on their doorstep at 17." —metal_jesterSome more info: Tyler actually admitted to having sex with a minor in his memoir. 'She was 16, she knew how to nasty, and there wasn't a hair on it," Tyler wrote. He was 26 at the time. He also wrote, 'Her parents fell in love with me, signed a paper over for me to have custody, so I wouldn't get arrested if I took her out of state. I took her on tour." It's likely that Tyler is referring to Julia Holcomb, who sued him in 2022 for sexual assault, sexual battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress back in the '70s. She says that Tyler persuaded her mother to sign over guardianship to him. Holcomb also says in court documents that she became pregnant and Tyler made her have an though not directly named in the suit, denied these claims, said their relationship was consensual, and claimed immunity because he was her legal guardian then, calling for the suit to be dismissed. Similarly..."I always find it weird that Anthony Kiedis from The Red Hot Chili Peppers admitted to having sex with a child in his autobiography, and barely a word is said about it." —bgar1432Some more info: Anthony Kiedis of the Red Hot Chili Peppers wrote about having sex with a 14-year-old in his autobiography Scar Tissue. The girl — who reportedly inspired the song "Catholic School Girls Rule" — came backstage at his concert, and the two had sex. According to Keidis, she then continued on with the band to Baton Rouge. After their show, the girl revealed that she was 14 and her father was the chief of police in her town, adding that "the entire state of Louisiana" was looking for her because she'd been reported said he wasn't scared "because, in my somewhat deluded mind, I knew that if she told the chief of police she was in love with me, he wasn't going to have me taken out to a field and shot, but I did want to get her the hell back home right away. So we had sex one more time.' He was in his mid-20s at the time. "Prince. He met his ex-wife when she was sixteen (and later declared he knew he was going to marry her right then) and then put her on birth control at nineteen after they had 'a really deep friendship' (yeah right) for three years." "[According to her,] he later made her do an interview soon after their son died, threw that son's ashes away, ... and dumped her by the time she was 26. I love the man's music, but I wish people would talk more about the hell he put Mayte Garcia through."—ToasterGuacamoleWrap "John Mulaney. He was so funny and really killing it. But what he did to his ex-wife is so terrible." —prodigalpunSome more info: Mulaney filed for divorce from Anna Marie Tendler in July 2021, after which point she released a statement reading that she was "heartbroken that John has decided to end [their] marriage." It was reported they'd broken up in February 2021, though Mulaney later claimed he'd asked for a divorce in October 2020. In September 2021, Mulaney revealed that he had been dating Olivia Munn since the spring (right off the heels of his time in rehab), and that Munn was pregnant with their child, despite the fact that Mulaney had been open about not wanting children. Mulaney has since credited Munn and their child in his recovery journey. "Doja Cat has been problematic. Even before she blew up commercially, she was being accused of racism — against Black people. Ngl, I like some of her songs, but there's a lot of mental dissociation involved for me. Sometimes I don't like being aware of this shit because this is why we can't have nice things." —pbbtDoja denied participating in racist conversations and apologized for her behavior in chat rooms when she was younger. "Oprah was basically the O.G. Jerry Springer and pioneered that genre of shock-garbage-emotional-manipulation TV. Now she's interviewing Prince Harry like she's Barbara fucking Walters or something. I don't get it." "Nicki Minaj, and thankfully everyone's finally starting to get it. All this information came out back in, like, 2021, and it somehow got swept under the rug. I never got good feelings from her." "Drake is creepy, the way he befriends young teen girls! That's a weird thing for a grown ass man to do." "I can't stand Kevin Hart. He's not funny, and his stand-up shows are forced laughter in a nutshell." "Tom Cruise. Scientology." "Gwyneth Paltrow. She can Goop right outta here." "Julia Roberts." "Fred Armisen. Of that SNL era I like pretty much everyone else; he just deeply skeeves me out for some reason." "Bill Murray. I don't hate him, but for some reason the internet thinks he is God's gift to comedy. He's alright, but he's nowhere close to the idol that the internet makes him out to be." "I know I'll get hate for this but Jim Carrey. I find the guy totally obnoxious! He seems like he's got one schtick and that's all he knows." "Leonardo DiCaprio. He seems like such a creep." "Paul Walker. He...[reportedly] dated a 16-year-old in his 30s." "Johnny Depp. I think he's overhyped. Used to be a fan, but the last decade he lost his shine for me." And finally, "Drew Barrymore." What "beloved" celebrity do you think is actually a bad person? Let us know in the comments.

Tourism Australia Taps Robert Irwin to Lure US Travellers Down Under
Australian celebrity Robert Irwin, English television cook Nigella Lawson, Chinese actor Yosh Yu, and other international stars have been unveiled as the new faces to lure overseas tourists Down Under. Videos featuring these celebrities set against iconic Australian landscapes will be part of the federal government's latest tourism campaign aimed at attracting travellers from the UK, United States, China, Japan, and India. Robert Irwin, the son of the late Australian wildlife icon Steve Irwin, will front the advertisement for the American market. Wellness advocate Sara Tendulkar will appear in ads for India, while Chinese actor Yosh (Shi) Yu, the UK's Lawson, and Japanese comedian Abareru-kun will feature in commercials airing in their respective home countries. The $130 million campaign expands on Tourism Australia's ' Come and Say G'day ' initiative, which introduced the beloved animated mascot Ruby the Roo. In the video, an American tourist loses his phone in the desert—only to be rescued by Irwin. 'G'day mate, just going for a stroll?' Irwin greets him. Looking defeated, the tourist responds, 'An emu took my phone.' Irwin grins and says, 'Well, we better go find it.' Tourism Australia Managing Director Phillipa Harrison said traditionally, tourism campaigns use one famous face across all markets. 'But for our latest campaign Ruby will be joined by well-known talent from five different markets to showcase personal lasting memories of a holiday to Australia,' Harrison said. 'These international stars combine with local talent ... to create bespoke invitations for five markets.' Tourism Recovery in Australia Since the resumption of global travel, Australia's domestic tourism industry has grown with the number of international arrivals expected to reach a record 10 million in 2026 and 11.8 million in 2029. More than 700,000 jobs and 360,000 Australian businesses depend on tourism, while Chinese travellers remain Australia's second biggest cohort of tourists behind New Zealand, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics. The advertisements will go live in China on TV and online from Aug. 7. 'Tourism is the lifeblood of so many communities right around the country and creates hundreds of thousands of jobs,' said Tourism Minister Don Farrell. Nonetheless, industry experts have expressed caution about over-relying on China. 'China's slowing economic growth, youth unemployment, and property sector instability could hinder outbound travel demand. A weaker yuan may reduce international travel spend,' said Janene Wardrop, principal of event planning business Ascot Event Management, in a previous interview with The Epoch Times. Wardrop stated that the three main risks of over-relying on the China market are strategic, economic, and geopolitical. 'AUST needs to ensure there is diversification,' she wrote. 'AUST needs to ensure they support the China market whilst also building resilience by building their tourism market by product diversification, risk scenario planning, market diversification and to create constructive and culturally tailored marketing to Tier 2/3 cities. 'Priority should be on quality over quantity and attract high-yield, low-impact travellers.'
