Sydney Sweeney just dropped another Cindy Lou Who video, and the internet has thoughts. The actress shared a new holiday campaign for her lingerie brand that offers fans an early Christmas surprise.
Sydney Sweeney's lingerie brand SYRN shared a new video on Instagram promoting its holiday collection. The brand's caption read, "Our gift to you: early access to All I Want Is Plaid, available NOW." The video continues the Cindy Lou Who-inspired campaign from How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
Sweeney rocks red-and-black plaid lingerie pieces with oversized bows in the new promotional video. She also pairs the look with a white fur-trimmed cape and thigh-high stockings. Meanwhile, decorated Christmas trees, wrapped gifts, and Christmas lights round out the festive setting.
Sweeney first unveiled the Cindy Lou Who-inspired look on October 21. The original advertisement featured her wearing plaid pajamas and a festive cape while carrying gifts. Additionally, another scene showed her decorating a Christmas tree in a Corpse Bride-inspired outfit.
However, the campaign drew online criticism after its initial launch. Many commenters pointed out that Cindy Lou Who is traditionally portrayed as a young child. Despite the backlash, the brand has now released five additional photos and videos for the collection.

A recent candid photo of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry going on a lunch date has sparked fresh debate online. The images show the couple holding hands in the Cotswolds, and while most saw a normal couple spending time together, one commentator sees something else in them. He questions how the pictures came about and what they might signal about the Sussexes.
Commentator Link Lauren shared his views in a video clip posted on X where he spoke about the couple's "romantic pub date" and their "first photos together since UK return." Lauren questioned how the photos were taken. "You want me to believe that a photographer just happened to catch you on a little date night in the Cotswolds?" he asked. He said Meghan Markle "allegedly" arranges such moments and also remarked that her face looked "a little bit facetuned."
He then offered his own theory. In his view, the couple licensed the pictures to an agency. "That's what I believe," he said. The commentator also looked at the photographer's website. He said it invites visitors to "earn money" by sending in celebrity photos, videos, and tips. He went on to suggest that Meghan may have even worked with the photographer.
The source noted his interpretation of the strain between the couple. Lauren pointed to Prince Harry's schedule, saying that the Duke of Sussex has appeared at several charity events without Meghan in recent times. "It's pretty much known across the UK at this point in aristocratic circles and the press. They are conscious uncoupling," he claimed.
As a result, Lauren argued that the hand-holding photos were a response to this. Meghan, he said, wanted to be seen "staking her claim" over her husband. Lauren also pointed to the couple's reported plans to split time between the UK and the US. He said that this arrangement made the public display of unity more notable.

Mel Gibson has issued an apology amid backlash over his recent appearance at FanExpo Canada.
At the event, the Oscar-winner was caught on camera mocking an ASL interpreter as her prepared to commence a Q&A. Video of the incident was widely circulated on social media platforms, with Gibson condemned for his insensitive actions.
"Sometimes when you get pushed out on a stage in a spotlight your mind is all over the place, and sometimes spontaneous thoughtless idiocy is displayed," Gibson said in a statement to Variety.
"There was no intended maliciousness attached, and I certainly apologise to anyone who was upset by it."
Gibson's actions have been contrasted with those of Reacher star Alan Ritchson at the same event, who was praised for shaking the hand of the interpreter after his own Q&A wrapped.
FanExpo Canada is held annually and is billed as "the largest comics, sci-fi, horror, anime and gaming event in Canada and the third-largest Pop Culture event in North America". Gibson's appearance at this year's expo took place on Saturday and included autograph and photo opportunities for fans.

Sydney Sweeney has spoken out over the devastation caused by the wildfires in her hometown of Spokane, Washington.
According to local authorities, the fires have consumed more than 8,000 acres across Spokane County, with three main blazes destroying more than 700 structures. No deaths or injuries have been reported.
Taking to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday, Sydney put a spotlight on the news, emphasising that around 65,000 people have been evacuated from their homes.
"Spokane has always been home to me. It's where I grew up, where my family still lives, and where so many of the people and places that shaped me are," she began. "The devastating fires have changed countless lives in ways that are hard to put into words. Thousands of families have lost their homes, their belongings, and places of business, including members of my own family. This devastation is something our community has never experienced on this scale."
The Euphoria actress went on to note that she is supporting organisations including Innovia Foundation, SpokAnimal, Second Harvest, and Watch Duty amid the emergency. She also shared a link to Baby2Baby, a nonprofit that provides essentials for families and children.
"Unlike larger cities that often receive an overwhelming amount of national attention and resources, Spokane doesn't have the same spotlight," the 28-year-old declared. "If you're looking for ways to help, these are four organizations I'm supporting that are on the ground right now helping this community that needs us."

Actor Ben Affleck's net worth has taken a massive leap following the blockbuster sale of his stealth AI startup, InterPositive, to streaming giant Netflix. The recent regulatory filing revealing a $587 million purchase price has officially rewritten the actor-director's financial trajectory, transforming him from an A-list movie star into a top-tier tech founder. Prior to the landmark March 2026 acquisition, industry trackers valued Affleck's wealth around $150 million to $200 million. Now, liquidating his stake in one of Netflix's largest acquisitions to date has comfortably catapulted his net worth past the $300 million mark, setting a new blueprint for celebrity wealth in the digital age.
Although he is best known for his movies, Affleck significantly increased his net worth after selling his AI startup, InterPositive, to Netflix. According to Celebrity Net Worth, the actor's net worth is estimated to be around $300 million. That's a big jump compared to his frequent collaborator Matt Damon, whose net worth is only estimated to be around $170 million.
So where did that large number come from? Over the decades, the actor has earned hundreds of millions of dollars in film salaries and backend bonuses. In addition to his roles in front of the camera, he has earned millions as a director and producer. However, it's the March 2026 sale of his stealth AI filmmaking company, InterPositive, to Netflix that has really boosted his net worth.
On Friday, July 17, the streamer disclosed that it paid $587 million for InterPositive in cash. The disclosure was released in the company's Form 10-Q. The filing states, "In March 2026, the Company completed an acquisition which was accounted for as a business combination for a total purchase price of approximately $587 million, consisting of cash consideration," as published in The Hollywood Reporter.
Although the filing didn't name InterPositive, Netflix announced the deal on March 5. Even though the sale is relatively recent, InterPositive is not a new company. It was created in 2022 and began exploring the AI ***** e, with an emphasis on altering a production's visual effects without inhibiting the creative aspects of filmmaking.
