Pop sensation Sabrina Carpenter reveals alternative album cover ‘approved by God’ after artwork controversy

POP singer Sabrina Carpenter has announced an alternative album cover “approved by God” after the original artwork sparked controversy.

The Espresso star, 26, stirred up outrage with the image for her forthcoming release, titled Man’s Best Friend.

It was deemed degrading as it showed her on her knees in front of a man pulling her hair.

But last night, the US singer shared a black and white photo showing herself holding a man’s arm — which will be a second option for fans.

Confirming the update, Sabrina wrote on Instagram: “Here is a new alternate cover approved by God available now on my website.”

Despite being liked by 4.7 million fans on social media, Sabrina’s original artwork was condemned as “regressive” by domestic violence charities.

While the former Disney Channel star has been praised in the past for “owning” her sexuality in a feminist way, it seemed her latest display had gone too far for many.

One fan on X labelled it “straight-up Pornhub fantasy”.

The singer had already caused controversy earlier this year with her eye-popping legs-akimbo performance in red lingerie at the Brits, which prompted more than 900 Ofcom complaints from viewers who thought her scantily clad writhing wrong for a pre-watershed audience.

Nicknamed Polly Pocket by fans because of her tiny 5ft stature, Sabrina’s saccharinely sexy stage outfits, which often comprise lacy, pastel underwear, stockings and vintage baby-doll nighties, have been branded Lolita-like in the past.
