Halsey Defends Americana Film Amid Backlash Over Sydney Sweeney’s Controversial Denim Ad

In a recent Instagram post, singer and actress Halsey spoke out in defense of the independent film Americana, following growing backlash tied to co-star Sydney Sweeney’s controversial denim ad campaign.

The backlash sparked online criticism and debate, but Halsey urged fans and moviegoers to support the film, highlighting the work of its cast, crew, and director Tony Tost.

She dismissed the outrage as “24-hour gossip tabloid denim bullshit” and emphasized that Americana should be evaluated based on its artistic merit—not on unrelated celebrity controversies.

Halsey’s statement adds a strong voice to ongoing conversations around celebrity culture, film promotion, and media narratives impacting indie cinema.
