Sabrina Carpenter is calling out the White House after her song was used in a controversial Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportation video, and she’s not holding back.
The singer responded to X after the Trump administration shared a clip showing ICE officers detaining people described as “dangerous” criminals living in the United States without permission.
Her tracks Juno plays in the background of the 21-second video, which was posted with the caption “Have you ever tried this? Bye-bye,” referring to her viral stage moments.
Carpenter wasted no time setting the record straight.
“This video is evil and disgusting,” she wrote. “Never implicate me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.”
After her statement, White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson responded and defended the administration’s actions.
She said, “we will not apologize for deporting dangerous criminal illegal murderers, rapists and pedophiles from our country,” adding that anyone opposed to the effort was either “stupid” or “slow.”
Carpenter, who is also set to headline Coachella in 2026, joins a growing list of artists who have objected to their music being used by the Trump White House.
Kenny Loggins also spoke out earlier this year Danger zoneBeyoncé demanded a stop to the use of Freedomand artists such as ABBA, Olivia Rodrigo and the Foo Fighters have previously expressed similar concerns about the use of their songs in the White House.
Carpenter’s message made it clear that she does not want to be associated with the administration’s policies, and she wants her music to be kept completely separate from it.
