Sharon Stone has publicly defended Sydney Sweeney following her recent American Eagle advertisements, emphasizing the difficulty of embracing one’s attractiveness. Speaking to PEOPLE, Stone highlighted the importance of owning the unique qualities that make someone beautiful, touching on the challenges of being “hot.” This statement centers on the topic of Sydney Sweeney hotness defense.
Encouragement to Celebrate Individual Beauty
Stone encouraged using one’s natural appeal without reservation. She said,
“It’s okay to use what mama gave you. It’s really fine,”
and added,
“It’s hard to be hot, and I think we all know that. It’s really okay to use every bit of hotness you have — right here, right now — and go for whatever that is, because everybody has their own certain kind of hotness, their own certain thing, and you’re supposed to go for that. Because who are you not to be beautiful? You know, who you are isn’t an accident.”
This message underlines the value of self-acceptance and owning one’s appearance.
Stone’s Personal Connection to Sweeney and Comparison to Jane Goodall
Throughout the summer, Stone maintained contact with Sweeney, offering support during a pivotal moment in the younger actress’s career. Stone also drew a parallel between Sweeney and renowned primatologist Jane Goodall to illustrate how appearance can impact perception and opportunity. Stone explained,
“Because I was co-godparents with Jane Goodall, I said, ‘When Jane was on the cover of Life magazine for her work with gorillas, she was in her safari shorts and shirt, sitting with one of the animals that she was working with. Other scientists said, ‘Well, she only got the cover of Life magazine because she had good legs.’ And Jane said, ‘Well, if I did, then that helped me get more money for my research.’”
This comparison highlights how embracing one’s presence can serve a greater purpose beyond vanity.
