“I have big tits, it’s the only thing people see”

It is not the first time that Sydney Sweeney, the actress who plays Cassey in ‘Euphoria’ talks about how her breasts negatively affect your life. Last year, in fact, she told the Washington Post that although he had felt empowered to appear nude in ‘Euphoria’, he had also insisted on hide the chest in several scenes, because “everyone is going to look at my tits without appreciating the scene because of what is happening,” she explained to the journalist at the time. Now, ‘The Sun’ publishes some of her statements according to which her exuberant bust would also be harming her acting career. “I have the big tits and I’m blonde. It’s the only thing people see.” She has also said that she is being “ostracized” because of the size of her breasts.

From Marilyn to Christina Hendricks, when the chest marks

It is not necessary to have an exceptional cinematographic culture to find cases in which a particularly voluptuous physique has marked the career of an actress, starting with the very Marilyn Monroe. In 1955, she wrestled Fox, which she won, because she was fed up with playing the dumb blonde: “I’m tired of roles in which I’m just a sexual object. I wanted to broaden my sights as an actress. People have sights You know?” he told a reporter.

In 2015, the ‘Modern Family’ actress Ariel Winter underwent a breast reduction operation because of her back problems due to the weight of her own, but also because, she said, she was “fed up” with people talking about her cleavage. Other interpreters like Scarlett Johansson either drew Barrymore they also chose to reduce their chest size at a certain point in their careers.

christina hendricks (‘Mad Men’) also felt harassed and disgusted by the exaggerated attention that her bust deserved from the press and the public. In 2012, during a promotional event for a brand of glasses in Australia, the actress refused to answer a question from a journalist who referred to her with the expression ‘full figured’, which in English is used to call a woman full of curves. Later she would say that she had thought it extremely rude to be addressed in those terms. We stayed, and not for the best, with a detail that is not at all: that it was a woman who referred to her like that…

As Maria Bellmonte wrote in her recent report A week without a bra, a large chest is always a handicap: “Since I started working, I’ve been used to men looking at my boobs when I see them from the front (of course, because I don’t have any on my back). No eyes. No breasts.) Although accustomed is not the word… because the truth is that you never get used to it, and in fact today I still find it uncomfortable. they looked at my boobs first and then, urgently, the eyes! And him (because it’s always him) with a look first of surprise and then of guilt, like “oh, that got away from me.” Come on, like when you have an aunt who has a wart on her nose and comes to visit your house and your mother tells you: “Please, María, don’t look at your aunt’s wart”, and you… well, that Impossible, your eyes will inevitably go to the damn horrible lump. Well, the same, but on boobs. Bosses, colleagues, delivery men, messengers, strangers… as if abducted by my breasts. And that, wearing a bra”. Sydney Sweeney, the same, but on a planetary level.
