She added, “All the moves, everything I was doing was all freestyle, I mean, who else gets to roll around on the top of a convertible driving down Sunset Boulevard with police escorts? It’s the cool things in this career that I had no idea I’d get to do.”

Sam Levinson’s ‘Euphoria’ became one of the most divisive series of our time. People despised it for the exaggerated and highly sexualized sexualization of teen kids, and some loved it for its raw portrayal of drug issues amongst the youth. However, the series brought forward talents like Hunter Schafer, Jacob Elordi, and Sydney Sweeney.
Sydney Sweeney’s character has been highly sexualized since the first season, and it was established after the carousel scene in the series. By the second season, she became more desperate to win over Nate Jacobs. The actress’ family did not have any idea about the highly sexual content of the series.
During an interview with Sunday Today, Sydney Sweeney admitted that she did not prepare her father for the content. She said, “My mom visited me on set quite a few times, so she knew the story. My dad didn’t. I didn’t prepare my dad at all. So he decided he was going to watch it without telling me, with his parents.”
Due to the lack of warning, Sydney Sweeney’s father and grandfather had a conservative reaction. She said, “My dad and grandpa turned it off and walked out.”
