Watch: Sabrina Carpenter works hotline in ad for Dunkin' Donuts collab
June 25 (UPI) -- Sabrina Carpenter is collaborating with Dunkin' Donuts on a seasonal drink.
In an ad released Wednesday, the "Espresso" singer is seen working the "Dunkin' Daydream Hotline."
"I think I know what you're really craving," she tells a caller, while sitting in a pink cubicle, wearing a pink suit. "A Strawberry Daydream Refresher."
The "nostalgic" drink features oat milk, cold foam and "sweet strawberry flavor," according to a press release.
This is Carpenter's second collaboration with Dunkin, following her Brown Sugar Shakin' Espresso in 2024.
The coffee chain will also offer various frozen coffees with such ice cram flavors as cookie dough or butter pecan, and a braided apple pie bakery treat.

Sabrina Carpenter reveals alternative album cover 'approved by God' amid backlash
Sabrina Carpenter divided fans earlier this month with her choice of cover art for her forthcoming album, 'Man's Best Friend.' Playing on the title, she poses on all fours like a dog while a faceless man pulls her hair. While some interpreted the cover as cheeky and ironic — especially given the themes of the album's first single, 'Manchild' — others accused the former Disney Channel star of promoting sexist stereotypes and setting women's rights back decades. Carpenter has addressed criticism by releasing an alternative cover 'approved by God,' the singer revealed Wednesday on Instagram. The black-and-white image seemingly channels Marilyn Monroe as the singer, dressed in an elegant beaded gown, leans against a man in a suit. Carpenter is front and center while the man's face is partially hidden. Read more: Sabrina Carpenter gets cheeky as she announces new album, 'Man's Best Friend' This isn't the first time Carpenter has ruffled some feathers. In 2023, she received backlash from the Catholic Church after she filmed parts of her 'Feather' music video at the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary Church. The Diocese of Brooklyn said it was 'appalled' by the nature of the video and the priest who allowed her to film there was removed from his administrative duties. When asked about the incident in an interview with Variety, Carpenter responded, 'Jesus was a carpenter.' She doubled down during her Coachella debut in 2024, wearing a shirt with the same phrase. The singer has also raised eyebrows on her Short n' Sweet Tour, which returns to North America this fall. During her sultry performance of 'Juno,' she acts out a different sex position every night. Carpenter addressed the criticism that she's shaped her entire brand around sex in her June cover story with Rolling Stone. Read more: A Sabrina Carpenter music video leads to discipline for a priest as a church is re-consecrated 'It's always funny to me when people complain,' she said. 'They're like, 'All she does is sing about this.' But those are the songs that you've made popular. Clearly you love sex. You're obsessed with it. It's in my show. There's so many more moments than the 'Juno' positions, but those are the ones you post every night and comment on. I can't control that.' In a since-deleted post, an X user shared the first 'Man's Best Friend' cover and asked, 'Does she have a personality outside of sex?' Carpenter responded, 'Girl yes and it is goooooood.' Among those who came to Carpenter's defense of the original album art was 'You're So Vain' singer Carly Simon, who received backlash for the cover of her 1975 album, 'Playing Possum.' 'She's not doing anything outrageous,' Simon told Rolling Stone. 'It seems tame. There have been far flashier covers than hers. One of the most startling covers I've ever seen was [the Rolling Stones'] 'Sticky Fingers.' That was out there in terms of sexual attitude. So I don't know why she's getting such flak.' 'Man's Best Friend' will be released Aug. 29, a little over a year after Carpenter's last project, 'Short n' Sweet.' Signed editions and copies with the alternative cover are available for preorder on her website. Get notified when the biggest stories in Hollywood, culture and entertainment go live.

Sabrina Carpenter Vows to Make ‘Clean Versions' of Her Songs at 2025 Kids' Choice Awards
After dominating the 2025 Kids' Choice Awards, Sabrina Carpenter made a promise to fans that she'll continue releasing 'clean versions' of her songs so younger listeners can enjoy her work, too. This commitment comes amid growing controversy surrounding the sexual nature of her upcoming album Man's Best Friend, sparking debate across the internet. Sabrina Carpenter, fresh off her sweep at the 2025 Kids' Choice Awards, has made a promise to her younger fans that she'll continue releasing clean versions of her songs. The pop star accepted three major awards virtually, which were Favorite Song ('Taste'), Favorite Female Breakout Artist, and Favorite Album (Short n' Sweet'). She used her speech to reassure parents and kids that they'll always have age-appropriate access to her music. 'I've always wanted one of these ever since I was a little girl,' Carpenter said while holding the orange blimp trophy. 'This is so special to me, and I just can't thank each and every one of you enough for voting. I will continue to make these clean versions of these songs for you,' she added. (via Billboard) The former Girl Meets World star's statement comes at a time when some fans feel her musical content has become increasingly mature and sexually charged. While Carpenter has embraced an edgier image and lyrical style, she doesn't seem to have forgotten her Disney roots or her younger fanbase, who've grown up with her music but still include many children today. Moreover, Sabrina Carpenter's promise arrived amid ongoing controversy surrounding her upcoming album, Man's Best Friend, set to release on August 29, 2025. The provocative cover art features her on her knees in front of a suited man who's pulling her hair. Critics argued it was 'misogynistic' and pandering to the male gaze, while others saw it as a satirical statement about power dynamics and femininity. All in all, fans are excited for more new music, but many voiced concerns over the hypersexual themes and imagery that accompanied this new era. Despite this, Carpenter's loyal audience continues to support her artistic choices, especially with the reassurance that clean edits will be available.
