Sydney Sweeney’s HEYDUDE Ad Reignites Cultural Controversy

Sydney Sweeney, famed for her role in Euphoria, has sparked renewed debate with her HEYDUDE Country campaign, initially launched earlier in 2025. A resurfaced video, shared by The Patriot Oasis on X, features Sweeney in a form-fitting swimsuit and cowboy hat, captioned, “Sydney Sweeney appears in NEW ‘Hey Dude’ Ad.”

The ad, paired with a poster captioned “Wish you were here,” has divided audiences, with conservatives praising it as a nod to traditional values and progressives criticising it as provocative.

In the video, Sweeney walks along a beach and states, “You can take the dude out of the country, but you can’t take the country out of the dude.” Although it was designed as a stylised country-themed advertisement, it has been embraced by conservative groups as a cultural statement. Others consider it a deliberate attempt to provoke controversy.

The polarised reactions are reminiscent of Sweeney’s earlier American Eagle campaign, where the tagline “great jeans” faced criticism for potentially implying eugenics due to Sweeney’s image as a white, conventionally attractive actress.

This isn’t Sweeney’s first cultural clash. Her American Eagle ad drew criticism for allegedly promoting exclusionary beauty standards via a “genes” pun. The HEYDUDE campaign’s resurgence has amplified her role as a lightning rod for cultural discourse, with debates centring on whether her branding choices are calculated provocations or missteps.
