OnlyFans models are sounding off about Sydney Sweeney’s character on Euphoria this season.
Before the start of season 3 of Euphoria, Sweeney told fans that her character, Cassie, was going to get “wild.”
“She will do anything and at all costs to be famous this season/ She makes a lot of wild, interesting choices.”
Euphoria creator Sam Levinson talked about the absurdity of Sweeney’s character this season, which has featured Sweeney dressing up as a baby to make OnlyFans content.

“What we wanted to always find is the other layer of absurdity that we’re able to tie into it so that we’re not too inside of her fantasy or illusion—the gag is to jump out, to break the wall,” Levinson said.
Several angry OnlyFans models have spoken out against Sweeney’s character.
“There’s just a lot that’s ridiculous and cartoonish about it,” Sydney Leathers, an OnlyFans creator since 2017, says. “There’s so much that they have her doing that is not even allowed on OnlyFans, and that alone is infuriating: the age-play stuff where she’s dressed as a baby in a diaper, for example. Credit card processors have very strict rules that you have to abide by, and the rules are getting stricter all the time.”
“In the climate we’re in, that they dressed her up as a baby to make pornographic OnlyFans content was beyond troubling and again serves to perpetuate stereotypes that sex workers have no moral compass and that they will do anything for money,” said Maitland Ward, a top OnlyFans creator. “And there’s always this untrue stigma that somehow sex work is synonymous with sex trafficking and abuse. And they just said, let’s make a joke of it. That is so funny. I’m not laughing.”
Even Sophie Rain has chimed in on the controversy.

“I just watched the recent episode and while I do love Sydney Sweeney, I believe the depiction the director created labeling OnlyFans as this easy money gateway is damaging for girls,” Rain told Complex. “Only a few hundred women on the platform have made worthwhile money, and many women only make a few hundred dollars a month.”
“I also think some of the outfits Sweeney wore, especially the baby costume, just horribly paints OnlyFans girls. I am very conservative on my OnlyFans account, and depicting us as catering to certain audiences that like us to dress up as toddlers is damaging to our community.”
