Sydney Sweeney Reveals Behind-the-Scenes Details of 'Euphoria' Vomiting Scene

The actress describes the complex process involving a pump, a hidden pipe, and a horse bit to create a realistic vomiting effect.

  • Sydney Sweeney, star of HBO's 'Euphoria', revealed the behind-the-scenes details of the infamous hot tub vomiting scene in season two of the show.
  • The scene required a more complex approach than usual, involving a pump, a pipe hidden on Sweeney's body, and a horse bit in her mouth to create a realistic vomiting effect.
  • Typically, fake vomit for TV shows is made of a mixed-up paste of whatever is lying around that the craft team has access to, combined with milk and water.
  • However, 'Euphoria' creator Sam Levinson wanted a more dramatic effect, leading to the use of the pump and pipe, which were later edited out using CGI.
  • Sweeney described the experience as 'the most disgusting thing I've ever experienced.'
