Actress Sydney Sweeney, 29, lost over 200,000 Instagram followers in two days following a sports betting ad campaign featuring her nude. She currently has 25.7 million followers. The campaign initially gained her about 50,000 followers, but criticism from web users and female athletes emerged. Social Blade metrics confirmed the loss, which followed a one-minute video where Sweeney wears only sports accessories. The ad, produced by a US sports betting company, sparked accusations of "sexualizing" sports and negatively impacting women who practice them. Sweeney says "Just sport" in the video.
