Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney's Saga: Love, Rumors, and Hollywood Secrets

Sydney Sweeney still couldn't stop talking about Glen Powell as she gushed over the actor's sweet gesture towards her - one day after his ex slammed them

SCANDALOUS ROMANCE ROCKS HOLLYWOOD: Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell's Steamy Affair Spills Out

The tantalizing tale of Hollywood heartthrobs Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell has left fans gagging for more. The actress, known for her stunning looks and sharp wit, still can't stop fawning over the Top Gun hunk in a recent interview on The Kelly Clarkson show.

Sydney, 27, couldn't contain her excitement as she gushed about the career opportunity that Glen, 36, helped her secure. She revealed that it was none other than Powell who connected her with pop sensation Tate McCrae for her song "Miss Possessive." The blonde bombshell raved about Tate's talent and looks, exclaiming: "I think she's so beyond talented...she's so hot!"

The defiant blonde bombshell, 27, waxed lyrical about a career opportunity the 36-year-old hunk helped her out with during a chat on The Kelly Clarkson show - two years after they indulged in a steamy showmance while promoting Anyone But You

Sydney then dropped a bombshell by revealing that Glen was the one who put them in touch. She coyly confessed: "He was like, 'Hey, Tate wants me to connect you two. Can I give her your number?' And I said, 'Yeah, sure.'" This tidbit of information only added fuel to the fire, as fans and onlookers began to speculate about the nature of their relationship.

But it wasn't just Sydney who was dishing out the dirt. Glen's ex-girlfriend Gigi Paris shared her side of the story in a recent interview on the podcast Too Much. The Miami-born model revealed that she was left "blindsided" and "shattered" when the rumors about Powell's alleged affair with Sweeney hit the headlines.

Gigi, 32, claimed that Glen waved away her concerns by saying: "This is what I have to do for my job." The heartbroken model confessed that she felt like a pawn in their game of cat-and-mouse. She explained: "I had two options: either pretend like I was going along with everything and have everyone wonder...or stand up for myself and say, 'No, I'm not okay with this.'"

Earlier this year, Sydney appeared on Tate McCrae song Miss Possessive and she revealed that it was her Anyone But You costar who connected her with the 21-year-old rising pop star

Gigi's words were laced with pain and disappointment as she recounted the ordeal. She shared that Glen's flippant attitude towards their relationship left her feeling disrespected. "It wasn't a way to monetize the breakup," Gigi insisted. "I was shattered, shattered." The model added: "I just wanted respect...don't make an ass out of me."

The plot thickens as it emerges that Glen and Sydney were promoting their romantic comedy Anyone But You when they were hit with speculation about an on-set romance. In a recent interview with Business Insider, Powell revealed that he had given Sweeney all the credit for using the affair rumors to fuel publicity for their picture.

"I don't have the mental capacity to pull anything like this off," Powell candidly admitted. "But she's very smart...she's very smart." The actor also claimed that he was going through a "very real breakup" amidst a promotional tour, which made it harder for him to lean into the rumors.

Host Kelly, 43, asked if she knew Tate prior as Sydney replied: 'I didn't. So, I've been a huge fan of her music. I think she's so beyond talented. She's so hot'

Sydney, who was engaged to her longtime boyfriend Jonathan Davino at the time, has been an executive producer on Anyone But You. She dished about being "on every call" that involved promoting the film and even kept Sony marketing and distribution up all night with ideas.

The questions still linger: was their romance a publicity stunt or something more? One thing is certain - these two Hollywood heartthrobs have left fans wanting more of this scandalous love story.
