Sydney Sweeney In Britney Spears ‘Circus’ Dress Told ‘No Thanks’

Actress Sydney Sweeney is being compared to Britney Spears after she wore a silver dress studded with stars. The dress seemed to be strikingly similar to the one the “Toxic” singer wore to promote her “Circus” era in 2008, which, ironically, is the same year that her court-ordered conservatorship began.

Although many fans agree that both blonde bombshells are absolutely gorgeous in their own right, some fans online are frustrated that younger artists are taking on Britney’s most iconic looks.

One fan posted a side-by-side image of the two women, writing, “Sydney Sweeney pays homage to Britney Spears by wearing the same dress she wore for her ‘Circus Era’ in 2008” next to a fire emoji. However, not all fans thought it was flattering.

Although one fan argued, “Britney just does it better,” another follower appreciated how many younger artists were taking their inspiration from the “Gimme More” singer. “I know Syd isn't in the best light right now, but all these Gen Z girls bowing to Britney is pretty iconic to me,” they wrote.

“Her birthday was space themed, and she wore an outfit meant for Britney's Circus era?” another user asked, noting that the outfit, which Sydney wore for her space-themed birthday party, didn’t seem to fit the “Circus” vibe.

Another user commented, “This is gorgeous! And she has better shoes! Britney giving ringleader lol.” Another fan couldn’t help but point out that the “ringleader” vibe was obviously intentional, as she was in the middle of her “Circus” era, writing, “Maybe bc Britney was Circus themed for her album?! Smh.”

Still, it seems that not everyone was loving the comparison. One user just wrote “No thanks,” while another follower pointed out that Sydney does not actually follow Britney on Instagram. “No one can compare to Brit,” another user declared.

Another user wrote, “Gross, she’ll never be Britney,” while another asked, “Why is it that every time they try to copy her, they always end up being more vulgar?” Another fan shared, “There will only be one Britney.”

Other users also took issue with the Photoshop done in the photo. “Nothing against Sydney, but whoever edited that picture needs to go back to whatever school they graduated from, cause Sydney is fit, but that waist is not real, and the stars on the dress are all over the place and so obvious that it has been retouched by an amateur,” they wrote.
