Why Sydney Sweeney is the It-girl of the moment? | Yap Session

Welcome to Yap Session where we talk about what’s buzzing on the internet and anything that Page Six is talking about around the office too. First topic of the day is ITG girls. What is an ITG girl? It’s not Penny Wise. We’re not talking about Penny Wise here. Please passelling. These are cool cool girls in Hollywood that everyone’s talking about. They’re stylish. They’re cool. They’re in movies. They’re on TV. Sydney Sweeny’s at the top of the list right now. Mhm. Yes. And she’s not going anywhere cuz we’re talking about who she’s with, where she is, what she’s doing, what she’s wearing. We can’t stop. Yeah, we can’t get enough. I know. She was just making out with Scooter Braraw in Central Park. Yeah, she wanted us to see her. Yeah. And it’s not even warm out anymore. What are you doing in the park making out? Go inside, Sydney. Well, that’s not where the paparazzi is, right? You got to think like a celebrity. Scenic Rock. Yes, Scenic Rock. Yeah. Scooter Brown out of all people. It’s like she’s turning on Taylor. I know. But, you know, she courts the controversy. I saw a headline that said, “Sydney Sweeney refuses to apologize.” I’m like, “Refuses to apologize for what? For being hot?” Like, at this point, she was given the opportunity to apologize. And she was like, “What are you talking about? I’m Sydney Sweeney.” I What confuses me though is it’s like she’s saying she’s single. She was engaged. Then there was speculation that she split. No more ring. Seemed single. Then was seen with Scooter. Then was saying she was single. And now she’s making out with Scooter on a rock. Like, I can’t keep up. Can a girl date? you never dated and got a little messy rosteration, if you will. I don’t know if the girls know about that, but you know, keep a couple, you know. Well, and she’s still hanging out with Jonathan Deino, you know, under not so romantic situation. She was spotted like in a car with him. I mean, the fact that I know this much about this girl’s personal life against your will probably, right? She gets a new haircut and I’m like, “Okay, I’m in again.” Right. Right. She pulls me back in think she wears. It’s like she’s out there promoting this new her new movie Christy, which actually is an incredible story. True story. And it’s like all we can talk about is wow, this dress that she has on is sheer. You know who’s like that though? Zenaia. Zenaia is another girl that’s like that where it’s like she can do anything. But it’s like, well, what is she wearing? Like she’s in the Dune movies, but everyone wants to know what she’s wearing on the red carpet. I didn’t even watch the Dune, but I definitely checked out the red carpet looks. Absolutely. I mean, but she’s an icon. I I think Sydney is becoming a red carpet icon probably herself, but but it’s like how does one become an icon? That’s the question. Elements of the it girl. You have to have a perfect stylist, I feel like. And L Roach has definitely Yeah, he’s definitely gotten to like all the way together. Like really made her an icon through fashion. Absolutely. So fashion. The fashion. The look. Yeah. First of all, the look. I’m sorry. We all talk a lot of smack about JLo. I love JLo, but it’s the face for me. That face card for 50some years has never looked better. She is a stunning woman. I just get hypnotized. So, the look is very important. And she was the it girl when she was in the green Versace dress. Yes. You know, that was the moment. You know, it wasn’t just the face. It was also the butt. Y and for years, we couldn’t stop talking about her. And and you know, we’ve had other it girls. You know, a couple years ago, maybe it was Jennifer Lawrence, you know, pre- pandemic. you know, Angelina Jolie when she first burst on the scene, won an Oscar, started dating, you know, Brad Pitt, she was an it girl. So, we have these each generation has their little micro moment. And some of the things I I those girls have in common is like the it factor, right? Like they have charisma. Sure, anybody can have charisma, but to have the it factor, what is that? Like it’s like this Jennisqua. It’s this like thing you can’t teach. It’s something that’s unique energy that they give off. it like radiates and then we’re all like yeah obsessed and we don’t know what it is. We can’t even put our finger on it but we’re like I’m obsessed. Yeah. It’s not enough just to be beautiful or just stylish or just talented have to be all three. So that like you rise above all of it because there are a lot of beautiful women in Hollywood. Yeah. And they have they can all hire a good stylist but that extra thing that makes Zenaia cool, right? I think to me it’s a bit of a cool girl. Like when I was like a little kid I remember thinking Winona Ryder was so cool and she was an it girl. She was in Beetlejuice, Heathers. You know, she had this like the bangs. Yes. You know, she had the cool leather jacket. Like, I think you have to kind Yeah. I think you can’t be a Pikmi girl, right? We have an it girl and we have Pikmi girls. Yeah. A Pikmi girl can never be an it girl. Anne Hathaway unfortunately has never been Don’t you dare. Don’t you dare. I’m saying I love Anne Hathaway. I love Anne Hathaway. Maybe for the one month Devil Wears product came out, she was an it girl and then she then she ruined it. I mean, that’s all she needed was devil’s wear product. I know. Do you think Taylor Swift is an it girl? Because I feel like we’re paying a lot of attention to her, but then she does get a lot of critiques on her fashion choices. I’ll say I’m not going to say backlash. She’s pretty basic the way she dresses and there’s nothing wrong with that. I’m Yeah, I’m a I’m a cozy kid. I love wearing something comfortable. But I would say in the world of pop music right now, Charlie is the it girl. Charlie XX. Oh, okay. Yeah. And Taylor is just Yeah. Charlie has the cool factor. I mean, Taylor Swift said herself that she’s not a savage or she’s not a what is it like a a hot girl or whatever when she was kind of uh dissing Kayla Nicole was shading Nicole. Um so she’s not she’s admittedly like not the cool girl. That’s not her brand. Her brand is like the girl next door, the girl that you can relate to. That’s her brand. She doesn’t give me it girl though. But I think it matters who you ask, right? Because like I think if you were to ask me, my it girls are like Rihanna, Beyonce, but those are almost you almost they’re in a category on their own. And yeah, Rihanna in the 2010s, it’s like anything she did as soon as she cut the hair off. Yes. Yeah. And she was the first I remember this was such a moment where she just started going topless on Instagram and she’s like, “Ban me. Go ahead. I have a 100red million followers on here. Ban me. Go ahead.” Like, “Okay, boohoo. I I’m still Rihanna.” Like, she just started taking tasteful nudes, you know? A tasteful nude. one hand over the breast like and everyone was like jaw dropped. This was like you know 2012 13 era and it was just Yeah. Bad girl Riri. Yeah. I think it matters who was popping when you were in your formidable years. You know what I mean? When you were in like junior high to high school to like early college. Who was that guy? Like for me it was like the Rihanna’s and the Beyonces and like Drake. I know we’re talking about girls but just who was popping during that time. You have like a particular connection to them and that nostalgia that turns like a regular fan to like a barb or like a beehive per like you know what I mean? It’s like extra part. You can have an it boy. I think Jacob Allerty is an it boy. He’s an it boy. He appears on camera even as Frankenstein the monster on Netflix and I’m like I’ll watch like me like Frankenstein. And we are like ooh he’s out to lunch with someone like it could have been his next door neighbor or his you know someone from his publicist office and we’re all like who’s that girl he’s eating with like we need to know now. Yeah that’s the thing. It girls and boys can make whoever they’re around it. Boys and girls, that’s how much of an it they have is that they’re it’s contagious. Well, another it girl is definitely Kim Kardashian. And and it’s interesting cuz when we listed kind of the things that we say make you an it girl. Talent was one of those things. And a lot of people critique Kim. Wow. Let’s get into the talent talk. Like a lot of people critique Kim. So it’s like does she fall I mean we can’t deny her impact but does she fall under that it girl factor? Like even someone like a Rihanna or a JLo, like they’re unabashed it girls. The talent is arguable, but it’s I think you have to have here’s my here’s what I say. You have to have a minimum amount of talent. You do have to have some talent. You don’t have to have an extraordinary Beyonce level of talent, but you do have to have some just like the bare minimum, but if you have charisma and the look and the it factor, then it’s like that’ll carry you the rest of the way. Oh, I mean, Jennifer Lopez is one of the best dancers, you know, in pop music. She’s stunning. She’s a fantastic actor, too. Yeah, I do think she’s a good actress. Not to sound like I’m in Mean Girls, but one time Jennifer Lopez did an interview where she said she gets eight hours of sleep a night. So, now I’m always like to my husband, I need 8 hours of sleep. Jennifer Lopez gets 8 hours of sleep at night. That’s her trick. That’s the influence. It’s probably a little bit more, you know, but she told me 8 hours of sleep and I said, “Same.” Say less. I’ll do that, too. I know. The next generation of it girls are probably people we don’t even know. They might be a Tik Tok star or a podcast girl. Yeah. Who do we think is next? I mean, are the Alex’s the podcast, you know, Alex Cooper? I don’t really feel like they have that sort of I agree. stardom about them like you you look at them and and I feel like sometimes that makes the difference between like your influencers and your celebrities like you know, you look at Sydney Sweeney and you’re just like captivated and drawn in like you want to look like her. Like you want to look at her. I’m sorry, but like I was saying I would not say no to that. I just don’t feel like Alex Earl and some of the other podcast girls really have that sort of that we’re just in a new era of celebrity I feel like where like the influencers are new celebrities and the celebrities have less pull in a way but a a good celebrity we still need those you know I would say maybe Sabrina Carpenter I know she’s not really up and coming she’s kind of here she’s came but she’s she’s 25 she’s like 10 she has 10 albums yeah but I mean her fashion is really evolving she’s like recreating looks from the nanny that everybody’s obsessed with following what she’s going to do next. So, she kind of has that she’s still like young Hollywood and she’s stunning like beautiful woman. Yes. And and an it girl that I that had a great comeback this past year was Parker Posie. So, in the 80s and 90s and you know, she was just this quirky cool girl, you know, great style hipster. And then a couple decades, you know, we didn’t hear about Parker Posie, but then with White Lotus, she came back and it that magic was still there and everyone was like, “Oh my god, we love Parker Posie.” The resurrection of an it girl. Was an it girl, always an it girl. Yes. Said by the number one it girl herself, you know. I am following JLo’s rules. So, here I am. So, in in high school superlatives, the it girl doesn’t win homecoming queen. She wins best or like, you know what I mean? Like, she wins something else. most likely to host a talk show. Yeah. Or like most likely to be like president. Something where it’s like you could see her having influence. She’s a little charismatic, powerful. Or maybe the prom queen. Yes. Yeah. Hopefully they have a little bit more to come than just looks though. You got to have, you know, I’m like Sydney Sweeney’s prom queen in her sheer dress. Yeah, she is.

Sydney Sweeney steps into the ring, and out of her comfort zone, to portray boxing legend Christy Martin in the upcoming biopic “Christy.” While the actress is embodying a sports icon, she’s also becoming one of Hollywood’s biggest It girls. Page Six’s Brian Faas, Brianna Dunkers-Brown, Ashlee McGeehan, and Malik Cleveland are breaking down what it takes to become a megastar.
