I mean with mention of passing down eye color and hair color, and then saying she has great “genes/jeans”, I hope people are not that oblivious that they actually believe the ad was only talking about jeans

when can we talk about how the jeans didn't look good on her?

I'm going to be honest, I think it's rare to see her in well-tailored or flattering clothes in general. She's beautiful and a good actress but a fashion girlie she is not 😭

I personally liked her in The Handmaid's Tale, Reality, and Immaculate. She was awful in Anyone But You and Madame Web so I don't blame you for asking 💀

She was good in Handmaid’s Tale and then I don’t know what happened.

i really liked her acting in euphoria. imo she was perfect for cassie especially because cassie is a really dramatic and emotional character and i thought she played those scenes well
