LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Sydney Sweeney’s meteoric rise in Hollywood is reportedly causing tension with two of entertainment’s biggest names.

According to a new report, the 'Euphoria' actress’s growing popularity and string of high-profile ad campaigns have sparked jealousy from Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez.

Insiders allege the actress is unfazed by the chatter, despite claims that some A-listers are taking aim at her success.

Sydney Sweeney’s success allegedly draws envy from major stars

The National Enquirer reported that Sweeney’s growing fame has been met with resistance in certain celebrity circles.

“Sydney’s getting a ridiculous amount of hate right now and some of it’s coming from major names,” an insider told the outlet.

The source added that the actress, known for her driven work ethic, is refusing to “give anyone the satisfaction of seeing her rattled.”

The report suggested Sweeney has been particularly “bothered” by Kim Kardashian’s reaction to her rising profile.

The source alleged Kardashian was “seeing green around her,” though Sweeney “did not intend to make other women jealous.”

The insider continued, “But she’s driven [and] if people want to hate on her because she’s doing well, so be it.”

The outlet further claimed Kardashian suffered “a huge blow to her ego” after Sweeney commanded attention at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding, where her appearance reportedly overshadowed other celebrity guests.

Jennifer Lopez allegedly unsettled by Sydney Sweeney’s rumored music ambitions

The same report indicated that Sweeney’s next career move could be in music, a development said to have annoyed Jennifer Lopez. According to the insider, the 'Immaculate' star was shocked by the reaction.

“It just proves to her that she’s on the right path and she’s not taking her foot off the brake,” they said.

Sweeney reportedly “totally loves” Lopez and “grew up listening to her music,” which made Lopez’s alleged annoyance even more surprising. “She’s pretty much blown away that she’d be seeing her as any sort of competition,” the source added.
