Americana co-star Halsey is defending Sydney Sweeney's role in Americana, after she was unfairly criticized about her American Eagle advertisement. We can certainly appreciate Halsey and Sweeney's special talents.

Jumping on her Instagram Stories late last week, per E! News, Halsey wrote, "You should go see this movie because Tony Tost made an exceptional film, in honor of a genre he knows intimately. Because his work and his vision are greater than the 24 hr gossip tabloid denim bulls--t."
"He's an incredible artist who made a great film with a group of hardworking, talented people,” the singer and actress continued. “If you love cinema, than you should know that cinema comes first. This is cinema."
She went on to write indirectly, but seemingly more directly, about the Sweeney jeans controversy, adding, "I do agree that our words are important in this climate. I don't, however, think that it's fair for the news cycle to predatorily rip a hardworking director and his hardworking crew for this film that is completely separate-from and unrelated-to a (pretty dumb) advertising take."
"If it's not clear who the actual people I'm standing up for are I'm sorry look closer," she concluded her message."
Halsey also took to X in a since-deleted post, per MSN, and defended her defense, writing, "I’m not upset the film’s release is being hurt by the timing. I am upset that a bunch of non-celebrity people involved in this film are being bullied by the media."
She went on to write, "I have said everything I am permitted to say about my feelings on the ad. And if you’re a fan of mine and think I ‘support eugenics’ then idk what to say idk why you’re a fan then tbh…"
