“My mom told me from a very young age to fall in love with as many things as possible. And so I did fall in love, again and again: I love sports. I love being outside. I was on the ski team, and I wakeboarded. I slalom ski on water. I was on the soccer team and the softball team,” she said.

The ‘Euphoria’ star added, “And then my parents got me into grappling, which is like wrestling, and kickboxing. I was the only girl at the dojo. I trained there from 13 until about 19. I fought all guys. I liked to think that if s–t went down, I might be able to step up.”

Sydney Sweeney revealed that her first acting job might be just a line on ‘Criminal Minds’ or ‘Heroes.’

“It took a little longer than five years. I really believe in the 10-year plan now. My first real job was one line on the show Criminal Minds, or maybe Heroes—I can’t remember which one was first,” the ‘Euphoria’ star said.
