WNBA star Sophie Cunningham and Hollywood actress Sydney Sweeney took a viral photo together at a major sporting event.
They crossed paths at the NASCAR Cup Series Championship held at the Phoenix Raceway. For the event, Cunningham served as the honorary pace car driver. Meanwhile, Sweeney waved the checkered flag and promoted her upcoming movie.
Because of their roles, the two celebrities met up and posed for a picture together. However, it was the social media caption that truly captivated the internet. Cunningham posted the snapshot on her X account with a very cheeky, self-deprecating joke. Specifically, she wrote, “one of us forgot our tits at home,” while tagging the famous actress.
Neither of these women give a shit about your twisted mental breakdowns over how beautiful and successful they are…in spite of the toxic hate! https://t.co/34oPLlsAqI

You can talk about them in a negative way, but both Sophie Cunningham and Sydney Sweeney have loyal fan bases. They proved it once again this week.
“Two of my favorite women on the planet in one photo ❤️,” one fan said.
“Both 10s because they have a sense of humor to go along with their awesomeness,” a second fan wrote about Sophie Cunningham and Sydney Sweeney.
“When you can make a joke about yourself, you know no one is going to get in your head,” a third user added.
“They’re both awesome. 🤩, one final person commented.
Actress Sydney Sweeney faced a massive wave of public backlash after starring in a provocative new sports advertisement. The viral commercial was filmed for Novig, a popular sports betting and prediction market platform. In the video, Sweeney appears mostly nude while strategically holding various pieces of athletic gear. However, female Olympic athletes and professional sports figures quickly condemned the campaign for overly sexualizing women.
Consequently, thousands of fans reportedly hit the “unfollow” button on the Hollywood star’s Instagram account.
Sophie Cunningham has sparked intense public backlash this year due to her polarizing political comments. The controversy erupted after the Indiana Fever player publicly criticized the inclusion of transgender athletes in women’s sports. In an ESPN profile, she advocated for eliminating transgender girls and women from female competitions.
Specifically, Cunningham stated she wanted to protect young girls who shouldn’t have to “go against biological men.” Cunningham refused to back down from the mounting criticism during subsequent press conferences. Instead, she doubled down on her stance and insisted her opinions are simply a matter of “common sense.”
Ultimately, her divisive commentary has made her one of the most debated figures in professional basketball.
