00:00 Did Sydney Sweeney really work at Universal Studios before breaking into Hollywood? Here's the truth.
00:05 The internet has been questioning whether or not the Euphoria star has fabricated parts of
00:10 her inspiring backstory. Back in November, a Women's Health Cover story about the 26-year-old
00:15 actress detailed her humble beginnings, saying she made extra cash as a teenager by babysitting,
00:20 cleaning restaurant bathrooms, and leading tours at Universal Studios,
00:24 all to help her family pay the bills while she was trying to make it in Hollywood.
00:28 Sweeney has since been asked about working at Universal during an interview on Hot Ones,
00:32 and on The Kelly Clarkson Show.
00:42 But when news of Sweeney's Universal gig made its way to TikTok, a handful of creators who
00:53 claimed to have worked at the amusement park themselves called her out and said she was lying.
00:58 So, The Hollywood Reporter investigated and found that Sweeney is in fact telling the truth.
01:02 It's just that her tenure at Universal was short-lived, and she left before having a
01:06 big impact on the tour circuit. Sweeney was hired by Universal Studios Hollywood on June 12,
01:11 2016, after which she attended an orientation shift followed by a training shift. However,
01:16 she exited the job on July 18, 2016, when she booked an acting job.
01:20 Sweeney next stars opposite Dakota Johnson in Madame Web.
