Sharon Stone addresses ‘Euphoria’ co-star Sydney Sweeney’s ad controversy

Sharon Stone believes Sydney Sweeney should "take responsibility" for her controversial Novig advertisement.

The 29-year-old actress has faced a huge backlash from female athletes over the campaign, in which she posed in a number of provocative positions with sports equipment and while her Euphoria co-star insisted she wouldn't "judge" her over the campaign, her focus is on being a "cheerleader" for other women.

Sharon told PEOPLE magazine, “I think that it’s up to her to take responsibility for her actions, not up to me to judge her for her actions. It is up to me to be a cheerleader for the women who have made it through and become champions in women’s sports.”

“We can’t denigrate women’s sports to get men’s attention so they can gamble,” she added.

The 68-year-old star also revealed she threatened to sue her high school if she wasn't allowed to try out for the boys' golf team because there were no female sports teams at the time.

"I had something to prove. [I] made the boys’ team.”

This isn't the first time the Basic Instinct actress has spoken about Sydney's controversial advertising campaigns.

She was previously asked about the White Lotus star's controversial "good jeans" commercials for American Eagle and Sharon said at that time, “It’s okay to use what mama gave you. It’s really fine. It’s hard to be hot, and I think we all know that. It’s really okay to use every bit of hotness you have, right here, right now.”

“Go for whatever that is, because everybody has their own certain kind of hotness, their own certain thing, and you’re supposed to go for that. Because who are you not to be beautiful? You know, who you are isn’t an accident,” she added of Sydney Sweeney’s commercial.
