Sydney Sweeney isn’t letting critics ruin a vacation filled with “good times and tan lines.�

Sydney Sweeney’s team fires back at producer who said ‘she’s not pretty’ and ‘can’t act’

At a recent screening of Baum’s 1988 film “Dead Ringers,� the producer said Sweeney’s hit romcom “Anyone But You� is “unwatchable� and that the star was “not pretty� and “can’t act.�

“How sad that a woman in the position to share her expertise and experience chooses instead to attack another woman,� a spokesperson for Sweeney told The Times. “If that’s what she’s learned in her decades in the industry and feels is appropriate to teach to her students, that’s shameful.�
