Podcaster Alex Jones recently sparked an online conversation after posting a picture of himself and Euphoria actress Sydney Sweeney seemingly hosting a Thanksgiving dinner together. The debate began after parody account @AlexJonesIA posted a photoshopped or AI-generated image of Sydney Sweeney and Alex Jones holding a roasted turkey on a platter, captioning it, "Excited to spend Thanksgiving in our new house."

In the photo, Jones is wearing a Johnny Cash grey T-shirt and dark pants, while Sweeney is seen wearing the pale blue custom Miu Miu gown she wore at the 35th GLAAD Media Awards in March 2024.

On November 27, 2025, Alex Jones quote-tweeted the AI-generated photo on his official X account, captioning it:

"Happy thanksgiving to all of my fellow Americans as we continue to battle for the future of our republic."

In a follow-up post, Alex Jones continued the joke, writing that Sydney Sweeney "even helped [him] stuff the turkey." However, he explained the situation in a video attached to the post, adding that the image was either photoshopped or AI-generated and not real, adding:

"Happy Thanksgiving 2025. And yes, it's true, I'm dating Sydney Sweeney. It's very, very exciting. She's over at the house today, we're going to have delicious turkey. It's gonna be a lot of fun. Now, on a serious note, I saw a viral post where, I guess some folks photoshopped, or it's AI, I can't tell, an image of myself and the model, who also stands up for basic rights and American values, so I do like her. And so I reposted it, and it went even more viral."

Additionally, Alex Jones claimed that "the left" was "triggered" by his repost and accused the podcaster of being "deceptive" or "bad." He also pointed out that some "so-called conservatives" criticized him for not being a family man, adding that the picture was just a joke.

He also noted that the situation showed how people can be easily manipulated by projecting whatever they want, pointing out that the internet supposedly circulated several fake quotes by Charlie Kirk after his assassination. He also requested that whoever made the meme continue posting images of Jones with various supermodels, as it was "so triggering to the left."

Following this, Alex Jones posted several AI-generated images of himself with Sydney Sweeney, Hillary Clinton, Jasmine Crockett, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.


Alex Jones posted an AI-generated video of Sydney Sweeney promoting Methylene blue

In July 2025, Sydney Sweeney courted controversy after starring in an American Eagle advert, which many claimed was a dog whistle for eugenics due to its jeans/genes wordplay, as the campaign's tagline read: "Sydney Sweeney has great jeans." In the ad, the Euphoria actress says:

"Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color. My jeans are blue."

Amid the backlash, Alex Jones took to his X account on August 11, 2025, to post an AI-generated video of Sydney Sweeney seemingly promoting Methylene blue. For the uninitiated, Methylene blue is used to treat methemoglobinemia, which is a rare blood condition.

Meanwhile, Sweeney addressed the American Eagle controversy during an interview with GQ earlier this month. The actress said she didn't issue a statement earlier because she "always believed that I’m not here to tell people what to think … when I have an issue that I want to speak about, people will hear.” She further added that the criticism didn't affect her, saying:

“I kind of just put my phone away. I was filming every day. I’m filming Euphoria, so I’m working 16-hour days and I don’t really bring my phone on set, so I work and then I go home and I go to sleep. So I didn’t really see a lot of it … I knew at the end of the day what that ad was for, and it was great jeans, it didn’t affect me one way or the other.”
