Sydney Sweeney hailed a ‘strong baddie’ by celeb pals after bikini pictures spark horrific abuse

Fans have rallied around Sydney Sweeney after she effortlessly called out horrific body shamers without even saying a word. The 27-year-old has rarely been out of the spotlight over the last few years, clocking up roles in Euphoria, Immaculate, the White Lotus and rom-com Anyone But You.
Last week, pictures showing the actress enjoying a much-needed break at her home in Florida were published by the Daily Mail, showing her relaxing by the pool in a bikini. The comments section was instantly filled with vile putdowns, slamming the star’s looks, her figure, the career choices she had made, and just about anything else.
Having absolutely none of it, Sydney took matters into her own hands and gathered up some of the most hurtful messages for a new video on her Instagram page, highlighting the abuse. After what felt like endless poisonous comments calling her ‘painfully average’, ‘quite frumpy’, ‘chunky’, ‘dumpy’, and some asking if she was ‘preggo?’, the clip then switched to a compilation of her intense training regime for her new role.
In the footage, she was seen lifting tires and weights in the gym, boxing up a storm and showing off her muscles ahead of her stint as boxer Christy Martin. While she chose not to caption the upload, a string of famous faces were quick to hype her up below the post, complete with millions of fire emoji comments.
