Sydney Sweeney's acting coach DEFENDS actress' 'serious skills' amid Hollywood producer Carol Baum's comments she is 'not pretty and can't act'... but says former student doesn't have 'supermodel looks'


The 26-year-old star's former acting coach Scott Sedita praised his ex-student for being a well-trained actress but did agree that she does not have 'supermodel' good looks to TMZ.

The author and acting coach said: 'Sydney is beautiful because she has inner depth, intellect, compassion, style and facial features -- eyes, smile, cheekbones -- that the camera angles pick up on. Last week, Baum sparked outrage when she took aim at the 26-year-old actress while speaking to New York Times film critic Janet Maslin in front of a live audience. Sweeney, who rose to fame in HBO's Euphoria, has become one of Hollywood's hottest prospects, starring in three films in the past six months: Anyone But You, Madame Web and Immaculate.
