United Kingdom, Aug. 25 -- Halsey has criticised calls to boycott Americana.

The new film she stars in alongside Sydney Sweeney has been released following the actress' controversial American Eagle advert, which has been accused of promoting Nazi-style ideologies.

Halsey, 30, posted a message on her Instagram Stories urging followers to watch the film, which was directed by Tony Tost.

She wrote: "You should go see this movie. Because (director) @tonytost made an exceptional film, in honour of a genre he knows intimately. Because his work and his vision are greater than the 24 hr gossip tabloid denim bulls***.

"If you love cinema, then you should know that cinema comes first. This is cinema."
