Sydney Sweeney Throws Shade At Marvel’s Madame Web
Sydney Sweeney throwing shade at “Madame Web” is fun to see, as it shows she can keep a smile after a public failure. She doesn’t mind poking fun at her other projects and how the public tends to perceive her. Directly after the “Madame Web” joke, Sweeney goes on to say, “But I do have a new film coming out called ‘Immaculate.’ I play a nun, so it’s perfect casting.” The sarcastic comment stems from the contrast of the actor playing a nun after various sexually adventurous characters. For example, her Cassie on “Euphoria” has many nude scenes, which make Sweeney feel more powerful, and things get pretty hot and heavy in “Anyone But You.”
That segues into Sweeney poking fun at online rumors that she began a real-life tryst with her “Anyone But You” co-star, Glen Powell. At the end of her “SNL” monologue, she talks about how much she loves her fiancé and asks the camera to cut to him. It then cuts to Powell sitting in the audience. The affair between the actors may not have been true, but it’s nice to see that they can laugh about it (and presumably, Sweeney’s partner has a sense of humor about it, too).
Outside of the monologue, several sketches from that night made use of Sweeney’s attractive looks, including one where she plays a Hooters waitress who makes excellent tips thanks to her personal (ahem) assets. After hosting “Saturday Night Live,” Sweeney has proven she’s more than just a pretty face. She’s downright hilarious and should get more comedic roles going forward.
