Sydney Sweeney, while speaking to Glamour in a recent interview, opened up about the downsides of being a successful actress.
In the interview, Sweeney mentioned that paparazzi showed up at her Florida home while she was spending time with her family and yelled, asking the actress to come out in a bikini for a photo in exchange for leaving the family "alone."
"They said, 'if you tell her to just come outside in a bikini, I'll take pictures and then I'll leave you alone."
She then proceeded to shoot down rumors of celebs like herself calling paparazzi on themselves:
"Why would I call the paparazzi to take pictures of me at my own house when my baby cousins and family are there and I'm in my backyard? Why would I ever want that? I have pictures of these guys in kayaks hiding in bushes in the ocean. They got there at 8 a.m. and wouldn't leave until 4 p.m. I should be able to be in my home and feel comfortable and safe."
The actress opened up about the impact paparazzi photos have on celebs and noted that her "actual safety" is at risk since her location is revealed.

"That means a lot to me because I really believe in empowering others and feeling powerful with your body and embracing your sexuality."
This isn't the first time Sydney Sweeney has been vocal about the audience's comments on her body. In March 2024, during an interview, Sydney Sweeney spoke about how her body is discussed by others and mentioned that even though she notices it, she "can't allow" herself to have a reaction.
