Sydney Sweeney, known for her role in "Euphoria, " recently faced harsh body-shaming comments online. She took on a challenging role in an upcoming biopic where she plays boxer Christy Martin. After wrapping up the project, Sweeney encountered a wave of criticism about her body. Instead of ignoring the hate, she decided to address it head-on. Sweeney shared some of the nasty comments she received and paired them with photos and videos of her rigorous training. Her Instagram post featured a compilation of mean messages she had received. She followed up with a video showcasing her intense workout routine. The post ended with a picture of a pink notebook bearing Christy Martin's name. By doing this, Sweeney turned the negative comments into something positive, showing off her hard work and dedication. Fans and celebrities alike rushed to support Sweeney. Stars like Phoebe Dynevor and Lili Reinhart left encouraging comments on her post. The response was overwhelmingly positive, with over 400, 000 likes and 6, 000 comments within 18 hours. Many other celebrities, including Kesha and Isabela Merced, also commended Sweeney for standing up against her haters. Despite the negative comments, Sweeney is proud of her achievements and the transformation she underwent for the film. As the release of the Christy Martin biopic approaches, hopefully, the supportive energy will continue.
