World-acclaimed pop superstar Sabrina Carpenter slammed President Donald Trump for using her song in a White House video post, Politico reported.
Responding to the video, the “Man’s Best Friend” songstress said that “this video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.”
The video of people being arrested by agents, apparently as part of Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration, includes Carpenter’s song “Juno.”
In a reference to one of the song’s lyrics, the White House’s caption for the video reads, “Have you tried this one?”
Responding to Carpenter, the White House continued to make reference to the songbird’s music.
“Here’s a Short n’ Sweet message for Sabrina Carpenter: we won’t apologize for deporting dangerous criminal illegal murderers, rapists, and pedophiles from our country. Anyone who would defend these sick monsters must be stupid, or is it slow?” said White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson, referring to Carpenter’s “Short n’ Sweet” album and to the song “Manchild.”
Carpenter is one of several music stars who have objected to Trump using their songs, including at campaign rallies dating back to Trump’s first run for the presidency in 2016.
Mega-star Beyoncé last year threatened the Trump campaign with a cease and desist order after it used her song “Freedom” in a video.
That song later became former Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign song in her White House bid against Trump.
The Rolling Stones, Abba, Foo Fighters and Kenny Loggins have also demanded that Trump stop using their songs at rallies and in videos.
