“Well played, Sabrina”: Entire Internet Bows Down to Sabrina Carpenter’s Genius Response to ‘Feather’ Music Video Backlash
Sabrina Carpenter has risen to the status of a total babe in the eyes of the public. Her fifth album Emails I Can’t Send has been widely acclaimed and her singles have been topping the charts. Moreover, while performing, she has been ending her song Nonsense with cheeky and slightly out-of-pocket outros. This is something that has created a lot of buzz on social media.

Sabrina Carpenter’s Actions Affected the Catholic Church

Carpenter filmed her latest music video for her song Feather in Brooklyn, New York’s Catholic Church. The video contains some goriness of being blood-soaked. The church claims that it had to re-bless the entire establishment for this reason. Moreover, a priest was removed from administrative duties, for letting the filming happen there.
The reaction to this happenstance was polarizing. While Carpenter’s fans are defending their favorite, others have expressed concern regarding sacrilegious. Carpenter got a lot of backlash for, apparently, disrespecting the religion and hurting people’s faith.
