Sydney Sweeney Calls Out Hollywood’s ‘Fake’ Women Empowerment Narrative: ‘It’s All a Front’

As a dedicated follower and admirer of Sydney Sweeney, I wholeheartedly resonate with her insights into the paradoxical nature of self-proclaimed women empowerment figures in Hollywood. Her experiences echo my own observations, albeit from a different vantage point.


Sydney Sweeney is speaking candidly about the deceptive faces of so-called female empowerment advocates in Hollywood. In a recent interview, the talented actress expressed concern that some individuals in show business present themselves as champions for women, yet secretly contribute to their struggles. Moreover, her comments seem to imply that it’s often women undermining other women in the entertainment industry.

Sweeney stated in a recent interview with Vanity Fair, “It’s truly disappointing when women undermine other women. This is particularly sad when accomplished women in their field witness the efforts of younger talents who are striving hard to realize their dreams, only to then criticize or belittle the work of these aspiring individuals.

It appeared that the 27-year-old’s remarks were directed towards Carol Baum, a distinguished producer and educator at USC, although she didn’t explicitly mention her name.

Back in the early part of this very year, at some gathering I attended, Baum made an unexpected remark about Sweeney, calling her neither attractive nor a skilled actor. This statement left me scratching my head, puzzled by the whirlwind of attention she’s been receiving in pop culture. As The Daily Mail reports, in an attempt to fathom this enigma, I decided to watch her latest film, Anyone But You. However, when the final credits came rolling, I found myself even more bewildered by the hype swirling around her.

According to reports, Baum admitted that she inquired from her students the following day about Sweeney’s hype, but none could provide an answer. However, one student came up with a witty counterargument. Interestingly, it seems that one of her pupils posed a question to Baum: if casting her would ensure a project’s success, would she agree to collaborate with Sweeney?

Recognizing that the question wasn’t straightforward, Baum responded with: Isn’t everyone hoping for their films to get approved?

In an earlier conversation, Sweeney appeared to be criticizing Baum when she stated, “The entire industry is supposedly about ‘women empowering other women.’ However, in reality, it’s nothing but a facade. It’s all fake and serves as a cover for the things they say about everyone else behind closed doors.

Sweeney proposed an explanation for why some women may feel compelled to undermine others, suggesting it’s rooted in generational teachings that only one woman can be successful or dominant. In her view, this mindset pushes women into competition with each other rather than helping and empowering fellow women to rise together.

Sweeney is currently occupied with several ongoing tasks, such as the Christy Martin biographical film, which she was recently photographed shooting.
