Thanks so much for writing this. I felt like I was going insane seeing so many people laud her for being empowering and subversive but couldn’t articulate why.
This is phenomenal and I’m so excited to read more of your work <3 this and Jade Hurley’s article highlight everything I’ve been feeling about Sabrina Carpenter as a brand for consumption (not necessarily as a person) but didn’t have the words for without sounding like a pearl-clutching conservative
Thank you so much! I’m so glad you enjoyed the piece. I think critiques of women’s sexual expression is definitely a tight rope and it’s validating to know that other progressive women are willing to engage in this discussion. I’m glad you’re here!
Great work per usual Emma, all of the points outlined in this piece is why she puts such a bitter taste in my mouth, and why I struggle with her as a popstar.
I keep accidentally posting my comment before im ready 😭😭 - but even though i love her music, this is way too real 😭 it’s even worse when you compare her old music/aesthetic/looks (pre surgery/fillers) with whatever she’s doing today - it almost feels like she’s sold out
