“Keep it real and sensible”: Carey Price’s wife Angela responds to Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad backlash

Angela Price, wife of NHL star Carey Price, is weighing in on the backlash surrounding Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad. As critics slam the campaign for promoting unrealistic beauty standards, Angela offers a grounded take—calling Sweeney “incredibly attractive” and defending the brand’s history of inclusivity from her own personal experience.Carey Price’s wife, Angela Price, isn’t one to shy away from hot-button topics—and her latest Instagram Q&A proves just that. As social media continues to debate Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle billboard that plays on the phrase “good jeans” (a pun that critics say sexualizes and objectifies the actress), Angela chimed in with her own surprisingly grounded take.“When I first saw it, I thought, ‘Yeah, she definitely has great genes because she’s incredibly attractive,’” Angela wrote. “But hey, that’s just my two cents from someone who likes to keep it real and sensible.”Angela’s response stood out for its calm, measured tone at a time when the ad has become a cultural flashpoint. Critics claim it sends the wrong message by focusing too heavily on appearance and idealized beauty standards. Others have even called it racially insensitive. But Angela—who used to work with American Eagle herself—pushed back on that narrative.“I have a soft spot for the AE brand; I spent a good part of my youth working with them,” she said. “If you check out their past ads, they showcase people of all shapes, sizes, ethnicities, and support diverse groups.”That quiet endorsement of the brand comes amid a social media firestorm, where people are accusing American Eagle of promoting a narrow definition of beauty. The brand, however, maintains the ad was never about anything other than denim: “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans” is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story.”Also Read: Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau romance rumors slammed by ex-NHL star as George Kittle reveals disturbing fan incidentAngela and Carey now live in Kelowna, British Columbia, with their three children.
