Piers Morgan just couldn’t resist taking a jab at the recent uproar over a new American Eagle advertisement.
Sydney Sweeney is the face of the contentious campaign featuring the slogan “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans,” which cleverly plays on the double meaning between “jeans” and “genes.”
Critics have blasted the advertisement, arguing it promotes characteristics tied to conventional white beauty ideals such as fair hair and blue eyes.
However, many have fired back at these critics, branding them overly “woke.”
Among those defending the ad were the Fox and Friends trio – Brian Kilmeade, Ainsley Earhardt, and Lawrence Jones – who addressed the backlash during their July 31 broadcast, reports the Mirror US.
Piers alleged that his teenage daughter questioned if Biden was “asleep.”
during the debate, noting that “even she could see” signs of his supposed cognitive decline.
“You know why?” Brian quipped. “Good genes.”
Piers concurred, “immaculate genes.”
The conversation then shifted to the late Ozzy Osbourne, with the ‘Fox and Friends’ hosts inquiring about Piers’s thoughts on his passing.
Piers reminisced about his bond with Ozzy’s wife, Sharon Osbourne, recalling their time together as co-judges on America’s Got Talent for five seasons beginning in 2007.
Wrapping up the segment, Piers ribbed Brian, “Sorry again about the genetics, but what can you do?” He gestured towards himself, “Some people get these genes.”
He then gestured towards Brian, adding, “And some people get those genes, buddy. That’s just the way life goes.”
