Sabrina Carpenter flashes her butt in TINY Daisy Duke shorts as she hints at new music in teaser clip
Sabrina Carpenter turned up the heat on Monday, just in time for the summer. The pop star, 26, shared a vintage-inspired teaser video to Instagram, where she flashed her pert derrière in a pair of tiny Daisy Duke shorts. The clip shows the blonde bombshell — who's being considered for a role in a major film franchise — hitchhiking on the side of a dirt road, wearing heels, her micro shorts and a cropped pink button-up top. Her voluminous blond curls bounced as Sabrina tried to flag down car after car, but no one pulled over. The video has no sound, aside from the beauty lightly chuckling and uttering 'Oh boy' at the end. Fans believe the teaser is either for new music or an upcoming music video. Next to Sabrina — who has shocked fans with her explicit concert moves in the past — was a brown suitcase. 'She's securing song of the summer,' one excited fan wrote. 'Song of the summer incoming,' another added. 'New music!?????????' another questioned. 'New music please please please.' Others predicted it was a video for one of her songs. 'it has to be a busy woman mv bc of the suitcase,' one wrote. 'HAS to be a busy woman MV!' 'Bed Chem FT. Nicki??????' another asked. Carpenter's last studio album, Short n' Sweet, was released in August 2024. Carpenter is next scheduled to headline the Spanish music festival Primavera Sound, which is held at Parc del Fòrum in Barcelona on June 6. The Nonsense Christmas star will then resume her $33.2M-grossing, 72-date Short n' Sweet Tour on July 5-6 at Hyde Park in London. Sabrina has been a singer for the last decade, but her career got a major boost in 2023 while serving opening duties for Taylor Swift. Carpenter - who gets 65.1M monthly listeners on Spotify - originally taught herself how to play piano and guitar with YouTube tutorials. The star is keeping busy, amid reports she's being eyed up for huge role in Mamma Mia 3. It's no secret that the singer is a big ABBA fan, having previously performed their songs on her Short n' Sweet tour, as well as the band being one of her top artists on Spotify. Now, Sabrina could star in the sequel, 17 years after the original film was released, which featured Hollywood actors including Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan. Producer Judy Craymer, who has finished a script for a third movie, said: 'She'd be a goddess or some relation who would look very much like Meryl Streep.' Speaking about the project, Judy told Hollywood news site Deadline: 'Well, we know what we want to do with the movie, and it will happen. 'And I mean, we brought together this amazing group of movie stars that were all connected through it, and huge friendships evolved.' Amanda Seyfried, 39, who plays Sophie in the films, previously said she could see Sabrina playing her daughter. She said: 'Old age make-up for me. If Sabrina Carpenter wants to play my daughter, I'll make it happen. It's fine. I'm a big fan.' The two-time Grammy winner is throwing herself into work after ending her year-long romance with Oscar-nominated actor Barry Keoghan last December. 'They are both young and career-focused, so they've decided to take a break,' an insider told People at the time. Sabrina and the 32-year-old Irishman - who starred in her Please Please Please music video last June - awkwardly attended the Met Gala separately on May 4.

Book excerpt: "A Summer for the Books" by Michelle Lindo-Rice
MIRA/HarperCollins We may receive an affiliate commission from anything you buy from this article. Michelle Lindo-Rice, the bestselling author of "A Fortune Thanksgiving" and "The Bookshop Sisterhood," returns with a new novel about former friends healing their relationship. Written in multiple perspectives, "A Summer for the Books" (to be published July 15 by MIRA) tells of two old friends – Jewel, a bestselling writer, and Shelby, a bookstore owner – who went their separate ways years ago ... but! When Shelby loses her memory after a bike accident and reaches out to Jewel for help, how can she refuse? Read an excerpt below. "A Summer for the Books" by Michelle Lindo-Rice Prefer to listen? Audible has a 30-day free trial available right now. Jewel Summer 2024 Sitting up in bed with her laptop on her thighs and her husband asleep next to her, Jewel McRae, known to the world as Jewel Stone, closed out the deleted scene of her debut novel, That Was Then, and leaned back onto the headboard. She'd just received word her book was going to be made into a series on a major network, and they wanted her on set as a consultant when they went into production next summer, which was why she was rereading the book. It was a chore, but fortunately, years had passed since its release, and it was all new to her again. The network planned to create at least two seasons, so she was reading through her very first draft that even her agent and editor had never seen. It included about 17,000 words that were later cut, including the baby storyline. Her editor had never read that juicy subplot, and if Jewel continued to have her way, nobody ever would. Honestly, though it was tedious work, the book-to-series was quite an accomplishment and a cause for celebration. Her followers were on social media posting memes and making actor suggestions. But her celebration was bittersweet. The one person she wanted to share this with, her best friend since childhood, was no longer a friend. And the contents of this book were a part of the reason. Especially the deleted contents. Jewel didn't have the courage to share her truth with anyone, especially the man asleep next to her. Releasing a huge sigh, she placed the laptop on her nightstand and massaged the back of her neck. With a yawn, she settled under the covers, and her final thought before fading out was I miss my friend. Excerpted from "A Summer for the Books" by Michelle Lindo-Rice.

Clean Air Metals Intersects 41.0m Grading 13.2 g/t Pt.eq at the Current Project
Clean Air Metals Inc. (" Clean Air Metals" or the " Company") (TSXV:AIR)(FRA:CKU)(OTCQB:CLRMF) is pleased to announce the latest results from its ongoing winter drilling program at its 100%-owned Thunder Bay North Critical Minerals Project ("TBN"). The second set of assay results has confirmed that the near-surface, high-grade mineralization at the Current deposit is more extensive and significant than previously anticipated. Notably, one hole intersected 41.0 meters grading 13.2 g/t including 10.0 meters with 1.57% Cu and 22.39 g/t The newly modeled shape of this high-grade area strongly resembles the "Ballroom" structures associated with the JM Reef in the Stillwater Complex in Montana. The high-grade zone intersected in hole CL25-005 and in several adjacent high-grade areas remains open laterally and at depth, significantly enhancing the exploration potential at the Current results for the remaining seven holes are pending and will be released once received. Assay highlights: Notes Platinum equivalent are calculated as follows: = (Pt grade/31.1035 x $976 + Pd grade x 31.1035 x 86.2% x $966 + Cu grade x 2204 x 95.9% x $4.25 + Ni grade x 2204 x 57% x 6.98 + Au grade/31.1035 x 85% x $2,939 + Ag grade/31.1035 x 65.2% x $32.89) / $976 x 31.1035 Copper equivalents are calculated as follows: (Cu grade x 2204 x $4.25 + Pt grade x 31.1035 x 80.6% x $976 +Pd grade x 31.0135 x 86.2% x $966 + Ni grade x 2204 x 57% x $6.98 + Au grade/31.1035 x 85% x $2,9392 + Ag grade/31.1035 x 65.2% x $32.89) / $4.25 / 2204 Equivalents are based on the following recoveries Pt 80.6%, Pd 86.2%, Cu 95.9% Ni 57%, Au 85%, Ag 65.2%; and metal prices from February 20, 2025, US Spot; Pt $976, Pd $966, Cu $4.25, Ni $6.98, Au $2939, Ag $32.89 Mike Garbutt, CEO of Clean Air Metals, remarked, "These latest results have validated our belief that the Current deposit hosts more near-surface high-grade mineralization than previously estimated. The impressive grade and significant thickness encountered during the recent drilling programs provide additional support for establishing a more robust, high-grade production model. These results have also highlighted the critical importance of leveraging downhole geophysics to locate the highest-value mineralization targets at Current and Escape as we continue to advance the Thunder Bay North Project." Table 1. Assay results from reported holes The Winter 2025 drilling program is strategically designed to increase the size, number, and grade of near-surface high-grade areas at the Current deposit, building on the strong results from the Summer 2024 program. The latest findings, in conjunction with earlier data, further validate the extension of mineralized zones beyond the scope of the most recent resource model (NI 43-101 technical report on the Thunder Bay North Project, Ontario, Canada, SLR Consulting Canada Ltd, June 19, 2023). Unlike previous drilling, this hole intersected a high-grade zone carved into the footwall of the deposit, indicating a more expansive distribution of mineralization than is presently modeled. This result significantly alters the interpretation of the Current deposit, as it suggests that areas previously considered outside the core mineralized body may also host high-grade mineralization much like the irregular, high-concentration zones seen in the "ballrooms" below the JM Reef of the Stillwater Complex in Montana. This discovery is pivotal for resource estimation, as it changes the parameters that will be used to estimate the sulfide-rich, high-grade zones. The new understanding of mineralization extending into the footwall and beyond the limits of previous models calls for a reassessment of the resource potential, particularly in terms of accurately capturing the extent of these higher-grade zones. Furthermore, the potential for additional high-grade subzones in the region is significant. With continued drilling and an increased density of borehole electromagnetic (BHEM) surveys, we expect to identify new areas where mineralization could mirror the high-grade characteristics observed in CL25-005. Increasing drill density and utilizing BHEM to guide future drill targets will be essential to fully unlocking the high-grade potential of the Current and Escape deposits and identifying similar subzones that may have been missed by earlier exploration. Figure 1. Plan view map showing drill hole locations for the ongoing 13-hole program at the Current deposit. Clean Air Metals' Vice President of Exploration, Lionnel Djon, commented, "The extension of high-grade mineralization into the footwall in hole CL25-005, combined with the fact that it remains open to the southwest, highlight the clear opportunity to increase the percentage of high-grade resource at Current. Drawing on the ballroom analogy, we will continue to target thick and high-grade mineralization in and below the existing mineralized shell. The use of BHEM surveys will be a critical tool in guiding our next phase of drilling, allowing us to identify new conductive targets and better define the full extent of the high-grade areas."

Quality Assurance / Quality Control Clean Air Metals uses ALS Global ("ALS"), a well-established and recognized mineral assay and geochemical analytical services company. The Thunder Bay laboratory holds ISO-9000 accreditation; the Vancouver facility holds ISO-17025 registration. All NQ-sized drill cores are cut with a diamond-tipped saw blade, and half are submitted to ALS for sample preparation and analysis. Sample preparation is completed at the ALS sample preparation facility in Thunder Bay, ON, and analysis is completed at the primary ALS assay laboratory in Vancouver, B.C. Clean Air Metals follows a quality control procedure for its core assay sampling program: inserting blind blanks and certified Palladium-Platinum and Copper-Nickel standards into the sample stream. The insertion procedure follows industry standards with control sample frequency depending on the length of the sampled interval. Gold, platinum, and palladium are analyzed using fire assay (FA) with an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) finish. Samples with grades above the optimal ICP-MS detection limits are analyzed using optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). Also, thirty-three (33) elements of each sample, including copper, nickel, silver, chromium, cobalt, and sulphur, are analyzed by a multi-element analytical method using the atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) technique following four-acid digestion of the sample. When samples have grades above the optimal detection limits for this analytical method, they are re-analyzed using a high-grade assay method with an ICP finish.
