What did Sydney Sweeney say?

In an interview with Glamor magazine, Sydney Sweeney revealed that photographers were standing outside her Florida home a while ago. She said they also shouted at her family, who were outside, and denied speculation that she herself had called the paparazzi.

“They said, 'If you tell her to just come outside in a bikini, I'll take pictures and then I'll leave you alone'…Why would I call the paparazzi to take pictures of me in my own house if? My little cousins ​​and family are here and I'm in my backyard? Why would I ever want that? I have pictures of these guys in kayaks hiding in bushes in the ocean. They arrived at 8am and didn't leave until 4pm. I should be able to be in my home and feel comfortable and safe,” she said.

The actress also made it clear that the presence of photographers doesn't bother her much, but it annoys her when her location becomes known through their pictures. That's because she feels like it's invading her privacy. “If these photos go out, my actual safety will be at risk. Everyone knows where I am. Now boats go by and I literally hear them saying, 'That's Sydney Sweeney's house.' It becomes a star tour in my front yard,” she added.
