Sabrina Carpenter Mocks ‘Man’s Best Friend’ Album Cover Controversy in ‘SNL’ Monologue
Saturday Night Live monologue.
“Last time I was here, for the 50th anniversary, got a little freaked out by the cover. I’m not sure why. It’s just this.”
Carpenter then showed the controversial cover, “Me on all fours with an unseen person pulling my hair. But what people don’t realize it’s just how they cropped it. If you zoom out, it’s clearly a picture of me at the 50th anniversary special of Bowen [Yang] helping me up by the hair.” Carpenter continued to zoom out on the unaltered photo: “After Martin Short shoved me out of the buffet line, saying something like ‘Daddy needs his mini-quiche.”
“Since I’m here, I want to clear up some misconceptions people have about me,” Carpenter added. “Everyone thinks of me as this horndog pop star, but there’s really so much more to me. I’m not just horny… I’m also turned on. And I’m sexually charged. And I love to read. My favorite book is the encyclopedia, it’s so big, and it’s hard, and okay seriously, sorry.”
Before heading into the audience, Carpenter told the viewers at home, “There is a real person underneath all the sparkles and the wigs and the corsets.”
Carpenter served as both host and musical guest on the latest episode of performing her “Manchild” and “Nobody’s Son.”
