Sydney Sweeney has addressed “misinterpretations” of the red MAGA-style hats worn at her mother’s birthday party last year.

The actress, 25, reflected on the backlash she received over the party, where guests appeared to be wearing Blue Lives Matter T-shirts and Make America Great Again hats, during an interview with Variety, published on 9 August. Amid the criticism in August 2022, her brother, Trent, denied that the guests were wearing MAGA hats, commenting on his own Instagram post that the hats actually read: “Make Sixty Great Again.”
