Fans of Quakertown's Sabrina Carpenter in awe of her bold new look; check out music video
Did Quakertown's Sabrina Carpenter just launch the song of the summer? The Grammy-winning 'Espresso' singer dropped the single 'Manchild' in this first week of June, accompanied by the music video. Music industry pundits and fans alike suggest the song is poised to take over Summer 2025 playlists.
The song isn't the only thing expected to trend for the pop diva this summer.
"Micro" shorts are officially making a comeback this summer after going away for a year or two, and it is all thanks to Carpenter.
The Bucks County singer's new look, which consists of a white button-up, baby blue heels and denim cutoffs, continues to turn heads on social media.
The discussion, mostly admiration, surrounding the outfit began June 2, when Carpenter posted a short clip of herself hitchhiking on the side of a highway.
Carpenter later revealed that the video was tied to the release of "Manchild."
"this one's about you!!" Carpenter wrote in a separate social media post. "'Manchild' is out this Thursday 6/5 (at) 8pm EST. special 7 (inch) vinyl available now."
Here's what people are saying about Carpenter's look, including a look back at the "micro" short trend.

While Carpenter did not start the trend, she certainly revived it with her most recent social media post (And her fans are eating it up).
Free People, on the other hand, did not see the same success when they promoted their own version of the "micro" denim shorts on social media in March 2024, about five months before Carpenter's "Short n' Sweet" album was released.
Customers of the high-end retailer weighed in on the length of the shorts in the social media post's comments, joking about how the length of the shorts would not work for the average adult woman.
"Everybody relax with these rude, aggressive comments. I bought them for my hamster and she loves them!' one user wrote. Those who chimed in bonded over their mutual dislike of the shorts.
The response to Carpenter's outfit was completely different, with brands, fans and even haters showering her with compliments.
"My brake pads would've popped off by how fast i would have stopped my car," one user wrote in the comments of her recent social media post.
Carpenter, who has a penchant for all things glitter and lace, has been rocking babydoll negligees, blazer dresses without pants, corsets with garters, nightgowns, ballgowns, mini-skirts and of course hotpants even before the release of her sixth studio album "Short n' Sweet."
"Femininity is something that I've always embraced," Carpenter told TIME in an October 2024 interview. "And if right now that means corsets and garter belts and fuzzy robes or whatever the (expletive), then that's what that means."

The Grammy-award winning singer is leaning into that for her new single as well, donning casual garments, such as a pair of denim shorts and a long button-up shirt like a true girly girl would.
While there has been some commotion, or a frenzy if you will, about the outfit, fans have also taken to social media to express their support and excitement for Carpenter's new song:

5 shots of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce canoodling at Oilers-Panthers
5 shots of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce canoodling at Oilers-Panthers The Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers put on an absolute show on Thursday night as the Oilers picked up a much-needed win in the Stanley Cup Final to take Game 4 in dramatic fashion. The reigning champion Panthers tied the game at 4-4 with 19 seconds left in the third period, but would go on to lose in overtime. Among the crowd for the immediate classic was celebrity couple Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. The singer and Kansas City tight end were in Florida to take in the game, and the pair could not have seemed happier throughout the evening. Swift and Kelce have been dating since summer of 2023, and they were seen being affectionate with each other throughout the evening. Cameras caught the 14-time Grammy winner and the 3-time Super Bowl champ canoodling, laughing and overall just enjoying each other's company. Both were thrilled at the exciting finish of the game, and the NHL playoffs are just the latest in the couple's sporty run. Kelce and Swift made it to both tennis and baseball in the last couple years, and Swift has, unsurprisingly, been a mainstay at NFL games as she supports her beau. Kelce will kick off his 13th NFL season this year, so Swift's sports fan era will keep going strong.

'The View''s Whoopi Goldberg offers blunt advice against 'coddling children' through life: 'Sometimes you get beat up'
Whoopi Goldberg doesn't want to raise a generation of wimps, thank you very much. The View moderator and Oscar-winning actress pushed back against growing sentiments about parental involvement in their adult children's lives, after introducing a Hot Topics discussion about recent reports that college students were "sending no-contact orders to deal with disagreements with roommates" to avoid interpersonal conflicts. Cohost Sara Haines put it bluntly when she urged people in similar situations to "figure it out," and posed a scenario in which she speculated how her own mother might react if she attempted to bring her parents in on a minor point of tension in her adult years. "If I had called my mom and said, 'Someone's being mean,' [she'd say], 'Ae you okay? Do you have food? Good. Bye," Haines speculated as the audience laughed. Conservative panelist Alyssa Farah Griffin stressed that learning conflict resolution "is a key part of life," while legal expert Sunny Hostin brought up several instances where adult children are "bullied" and might have difficulties in resolving conflict because "people are really cruel in this world." She later advocated for kids to have their parents step in if needed — an assertion Goldberg balked at. "When you had an issue [in the past], your mother said, 'Listen, go down there and tell them you are not doing that,'" the Ghost star said, while Hostin admitted, "My mother came with me" to resolve such issues. "Coddling children? It's not a good thing, because when they get into these conflicts, it's the things you've been talking about. 'We had our kids because we had COVID, the kids didn't get out, they didn't learn how to do this or that,' so, you had to hep them get through all those phases that they missed," Goldberg observed. "It doesn't mean you do it for them. Remember y'all used to say, why does every kid have to win every day? People lose." She continued, "And sometimes, and I know it's terrible, sometimes you get beat up. Sometimes you have to make a decision. You have to say, listen, I didn't like that. And then you gotta grow, you know?"Goldberg often scolds those from younger generations from her post on The View, including in a November 2023 segment that saw her take issue with young people who don't want to work. "You know what, people pick it up, and they do what they do and they raise themselves," Goldberg said. "This is what you've got to do. It's called being a good citizen." The View airs weekdays at 11 a.m. ET/10 a.m. PT on ABC. Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly
