Sydney Sweeney wore pink Erdem to the ‘Christy’ premiere at TIFF

Here are some photos of Sydney Sweeney attending events at the Toronto International Film Festival. She went to TIFF to premiere Christy, the bio-pic of boxer Christy Martin. The pics in this post are from the premiere event and the afterparty, where Sydney changed into a black gown. Her premiere look was a pale pink corseted gown by Erdem. Which… it’s fine. I don’t hate it, and it’s flattering for her figure, but the skirt is a mess.

TIFF was Sydney’s first time back in public and in a press junket since all of this summer’s controversies. There was the American Eagle-eugenics issue, and on the heels of that, we learned that Sydney is a registered Republican in Florida. She’s also been dating Scooter Braun for several months, which I consider a stand-alone controversy because it’s in such bad taste for her. When asked about some of these scandals, Sydney told Vanity Fair: “I am there to support my movie and the people involved in making it, and I’m not there to talk about jeans. The movie’s about Christy, and that’s what I’ll be there to talk about.”

As for the movie, the critical buzz from TIFF is that Sydney has done a fantastic job in the role and she might have a shot at some awards. The NY Times rather patronizingly asked: “With ‘Christy,’ Can Sydney Sweeney Rebrand as a Serious Actress?” This is an actress with two Emmy nominations, mind you.
