Unlike many A-list stars, Sydney Sweeney has refused to turn a blind eye to hateful remarks about her image.

Taking to social media this week, the Euphoria star fired back at the trolling with a pretty iconic response.

This isn't the first time that Sydney has fired back at appearance-based criticism.

Back in May 2021, the 27-year-old double-Emmy nominee discovered she was 'trending on Twitter' for 'being ugly', recording a video of herself revealing hurtful online comments are often seen by celebrities they're about.

"I know everyone says, 'You can't read things,' and 'You shouldn't read things,' but like, I'm a f***ing person," she broke down in tears at the time.

"I think it's really important for people to see how words actually affect people."

And just earlier this year, after film producer Carol Baum said that Sydney is 'not pretty' and 'can't act', the actor's agent released a statement condemning the comments.

"How sad that a woman in the position to share her expertise and experience chooses instead to attack another woman," they noted at the time.

And now, Sydney has once again used her platform as a means of emphasising the harm that trolling can do.

Taking to Instagram on Friday (13 December), she shared a screen recording of a series of comments she'd come across, all of which were taken from the comments of a recent batch of paparazzi pictures captured of the star in her bikini outside her home.

The actor shared remarks which saw her described as 'quite frumpy', 'chunky' and 'definitely not supermodel material'.

Another user advised that Sydney needed to 'hit the gym' more, which is particularly ironic, being that the movie star also shared a number of workout videos in preparation for her upcoming role as '90s boxing icon Christy Martin in a David Michôd biopic.

And the irony didn't go unnoticed by several other A-list stars, some of whom rushed to her defence in the comments.

One of whom was fellow actor and Riverdale star Lili Reinhart, who penned: "It's always wild to see people publicly out-themselves as pieces of s**t with comments like that."

She added: "You look incredible and your dedication to your project is very inspiring."

Her Anyone But You co-star Glen Powell added: "You’re such a bada** - This movie is gonna be."

Discussing her recent uptake of physical training, Sydney wrote on Instagram in October: "I’ve been immersed in training to bring to life the story of an incredible woman - a true champion who fought battles both inside and outside the ring.

"Her journey is a testament to resilience, strength, and hope, and I’m honoured to step into her shoes to share her powerful story with you all."
