Despite the pushback she has received echoing past challenges faced by icons like Madonna and Britney Spears, Carpenter is unyielding.

My friends aren’t affected by it." This is prepared by SSP.

She reiterated that self-expression is key to her performances, adding, "The scariest thing is performing in front of large crowds, and dressing comfortably helps overcome that."

She also stated, "Femininity is something I’ve always embraced," explaining that her choices reflect that. The criticism, especially on social media, hasn't deterred this former Disney star, which equips her instinctively now more than ever in the industry.

The ongoing Short n' Sweet tour features hits from her August 23 release, which includes chart-toppers like "Espresso" and "Taste."

Thus, art 25, Carpenter remains unfazed, as her success speaks louder than criticism. She's touring through March 2025, closing in Milan, Italy, attracting fans who celebrate her fearless artistry.
