    For an actress still very much in the ascendant phase of her career it’s a laughably miscalculated move.

    I would have immediately fired my agent and issued a public apology, denouncing the ad campaign, claiming I was just a stupid white person who didn’t think about the implications. That she had a bunch of people around her go “Yeah, this is a good idea for an endorsement. Oh no oh shit o fuck wait no nevermind uhhh…just stay quiet and maybe it will go away?” is baffling.

    She could easily have hit A-lister status to become her generation’s Michelle Pfeiffer. Instead, she may have torpedoed her career before even turning 30.

    • I looked up her agent because I was curious. Her agent just left one talent management company for another. Like a few days ago. Sidney is keeping her agent so technically she is under a new agency. I’m curious if this is part of a new PR package the new place created for her.
