As the 26-year-old singer continues to cement her image as one of the most recognizable figures in pop today, criticism of her bold visual approach continues to emerge. Much less now that the Rolling Stone cover she stars in has been released.
And in the image that has already gone viral on social media, Sabrina Carpenter is seen posing completely without attire, wearing only sheer stockings, while her long blonde hair protects her from showing “too much.”
While for many this is just further proof that the “Espresso” singer is poised to become one of the most important exponents of her generation, others accuse her of perpetuating a hypersexualized image.
Regarding these accusations, Sabrina Carpenter stated in an interview with the magazine that the public has contributed to this fact, since she only presents a visual and musical proposal that is well received.
“I always find it funny when people complain. They say: 'All she does is sing about sex.' But those are the songs that you have made viral. Clearly you love it. You are obsessed,” she told the music-specialized outlet.
In this sense, the multi-award-winning singer launched a harsh criticism of the scrutiny that women experience in the entertainment world and in any other professional field in which they work.
“I don't want to be pessimistic, but I feel like I've never lived in a time where women have been so dismembered and scrutinized in every way. I'm not just talking about me, but about all the female artists creating art right now,” she expressed.
Regarding her experience in the music scene, Carpenter indicated that beyond being sad, it becomes annoying to be the one who must "understand" the criticism and not society taking a position based on respect.
"The moment you see a picture of someone wearing a dress on a red carpet, you have to say everything bad you can about it. We have to learn to toughen up, but they don't learn to shut their mouths," she concluded.
