Sydney Thomas signs with controversial Hollywood agency

Sydney Thomas, who gained widespread attention during the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight, has signed with Creative Artists Agency (CAA), a Hollywood powerhouse valued at $7 billion. Known for managing elite stars like Margot Robbie, Zendaya, and Tom Hanks, CAA’s newest signing marks Thomas’s foray into the entertainment world.

Thomas announced the move on TikTok, sparking speculation about her next steps in the entertainment industry. While her future projects are unknown, her signing with CAA is expected to boost her public profile, which is already high thanks to her role in one of boxing's most viral events.

Despite its prominence, the agency has been fraught with controversy. The agency came under fire for allegedly shielding disgraced producer Harvey Weinstein, who is serving a 16-year sentence for sexual assault convictions.

More recently, CAA found itself embroiled in political tensions when executive Maha Dakhil resigned from its internal board after being accused of making anti-Israel statements that contradicted the agency's pro-Israel position.
