Sabrina Carpenter is no stranger to a little bit of controversy. The singer-songwriter has been central to a few headlines, from her Man’s Best Friend album cover to her harmless “Juno” positions on her Short n’ Sweet Tour. Not to mention, she’s ruffled a few feathers with her retro-inspired aesthetic and openly sexual nature.

The latest critic to come for Sabrina shared screenshots of her September 2024 W magazine cover shoot next to a still from the 1997 film adaptation of Vladimir Nabokov’s Lolita, which follows the story of a grown man who grooms and sexually pursues a minor. Obviously, the multihyphenate was having none of that when she took to the comments section of his TikTok to defend her artistry and vision.

“I’ve never seen this movie. It’s never been on my mood board and never would be,” the “Manchild” singer wrote.

Similarly, she clapped back at another person who asked, “Does she have a personality outside of sex?”

“Girl yes and it is goooooood,” Sabrina responded with her signature dry humor.

The Grammy winner has been dodging such accusations since she rose to fame in 2022 with the release of her album, emails i can’t send, and her hilariously iconic “Nonsense” outros, which she’d customize for each city on tour with new innuendos. In Febraury 2024, she told Cosmopolitan that while people found her to be “obnoxiously horny,” she was actually learning about her sexuality in real time.

“It’s funny too, writing the outros, because I feel like I’ve learned a lot more about sexuality through writing those than people think,” she shared at the time. “I think people think I’m just obnoxiously horny, when in reality, writing them comes from the ability to not be fearful of your sexuality as opposed to just not being able to put it down.”

More recently, she opened up about criticism surrounding the sex positions she playfully hits during her live performances of “Juno”—a song about, well, sex.

“It’s always so funny to me when people complain,” Sabrina told Rolling Stone. “They’re like, ‘All she does is sing about this.’ But those are the songs that you’ve made popular. Clearly you love sex. You’re obsessed with it. It’s in my show.”

“There’s so many more moments than the ‘Juno’ positions, but those are the ones you post every night and comment on. I can’t control that,” she continued. “If you come to the show, you’ll [also] hear the ballads, you’ll hear the more introspective numbers. I find irony and humor in all of that, because it seems to be a recurring theme. I’m not upset about it, other than I feel mad pressure to be funny sometimes.”
