‘Approved by God’: Sabrina Carpenter Debuts Alternate Album Cover Amid Backlash
- On June 25, Sabrina Carpenter revealed a more demure black-and-white album cover on Instagram, joking it’s “approved by God” after backlash over the original art.
- Following the original cover unveiled in June, critics labeled it anti-feminist, depicting Carpenter kneeling with a man pulling her hair, which many deemed regressive.
- Fans reacted sharply to Carpenter's black-and-white alternate cover, with comments divided—some praised her humor, others criticized the tame image, exemplified by fans calling her 'so unserious.'
- Fans can preorder the album with either cover in July, while the controversy dominated media and sparked debate on The View.
- Beyond Carpenter’s case, mixed reactions underscore tension between artistic expression and public perception, and Sunny Hostin said, `I firmly believe that visual imagery carries immense weight and importance.`.
