The speculation came from the release of her music video for her hit track ‘Feather’ which was directed by Mia Barns and filmed at the Blessed Virgin Mary Catholic Church in Brooklyn, NY.
According to Rolling Stone, following the video’s release, the Diocese of Brooklyn said it was âappalledâ with the âviolent and sexually provocativeâ video which led to the church having to be re-blessed.
Monsignor Jamie Gigantiello, who allowed Carpenter to shoot the video in the church, was demoted. According to the New York Post, the church was subpoenaed by federal investigators last week in regard to its relationship between Adams, Gigantiello and Adams’ ex-chief of staff Frank Carone.
It was alleged that the subpoena was linked to the ‘Feather’ music video and the church’s corruption regarding the approval of the video to be filmed there. In a statement shared to the New York Post, diocese officials said: “It would be inappropriate to comment further on that review, which is still ongoing.”
They continued: “The Diocese is fully committed to cooperating with law enforcement in all investigations, including conduct at individual parishes or involving any priest.â
In other news, Carpenter’s sixth studio album âShort Nâ Sweetâ has officially been certified platinum.
As of Friday (September 27), the singerâs latest album was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America, meaning the record has sold more than one million units. This also makes âShort Nâ Sweetâ her first album to reach the milestone, according to the RIAAâs records.
In a four-star review of âShort nâ Sweetâ, NME wrote: âFull creative control looks good on the pop star, who swings for the big leagues on her sharp and saucy sixth record.â
It added that âwho Sabrina Carpenter is has never been clearer â and her long-awaited, hard-earned climb to popâs summit should continue with easeâ.
The pop singer kicked off her world tour in support of the new album this month, where she scrapped her customised âNonsenseâ outros but promised a surprise cover during each night of the current North American leg.
Meanwhile, fans think Carpenter and BLACKPINKâs Lisa might be teasing an upcoming collaboration.
