Sydney Sweeney, aka that girl who always looks flawless on red carpets and beyond, swapped out Hollywood glam for a night courtside with her 11-year-old co-star Indiana Elle. Yes, you heard that right. While most of us were binge-watching reruns of Friends, Sydney was living her best life at the Brooklyn Nets vs. New York Knicks game at Barclays Center on Tuesday, January 21.
This wasn’t just any courtside hangout—it was a wholesome overload. Indiana Elle, her co-star in the upcoming movie The Housemaid (no, not Downton Abbey: The Sequel), joined Sydney for what can only be described as the most adorably unexpected duo of the season.
Now, here’s where it gets good: Indiana, clearly on her social media game, posted the cutest throwback-meets-glow-up caption on Instagram. “When I was little,” she wrote, “I used to ask every famous young woman I met if they could babysit me. Fast forward to last night, and my super cool co-star @sydney_sweeney asked if SHE could babysit ME!”
Let’s all take a moment to appreciate the reverse babysitting scenario. One can only assume Sydney probably threw in a, “Do you want goldfish or fruit snacks?” before asking Indiana if her bedtime was negotiable.
Sydney, always the classy queen, kept it short and sweet in the comments, dropping a heartfelt “❤️” because, well, what else do you say when your tween co-star makes you look like the coolest big sister ever?
As for the game itself, let’s not forget the main event: the Knicks snatched the win from the Nets with a nail-biting 99-95 finish. But let’s be real—this article isn’t about basketball. It’s about friendship goals, babysitting plot twists, and Sydney Sweeney looking effortlessly chic in a Celine outfit that probably costs more than my rent.
What’s next for this dynamic duo? Matching pajamas and a slumber party, maybe? Someone get these two their own buddy comedy ASAP.
