According to public voter records obtained byThe Poston Sunday, August 3, theEuphoriastar has been registered with the Republican Party of Florida since June 2024. Her registration is listed in Monroe County. The revelation comes on the heels of an American Eagle campaign featuring the 27-year-old actress, which was intended to spotlight the brand's denim. One ad shows Sweeney walking up to a billboard and correcting the word "genes" to "jeans" with a white line, while another features her lying down, zipping up her jeans, and explaining, "Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color." She ended the conversation by clarifying, "My genes are blue," with a narrator concluding, "Sydney Sweeney has great jeans."
