Sabrina Carpenter has been struggling with her “current fake image” and feels as if she is “playing a character” after record bosses told her to change look for achieving Taylor Swift level success.
In this past one year, the singer finally got a break with chart hits such as Please Please Please and Espresso following numerous tries to establish herself as a successful celebrity.
Various insiders however claim that the newfound fame has come from Sabrina Carpenter “embracing a sexpot and extremely tongue-in-cheek image” after she was signed by Island Records in 2021.
Friends say that they’re no longer able to recognize the former Disney star because her personality has gone through a complete overhaul.
A source told Daily Mail, “Sabrina Carpenter didn’t connect with a mass audience and drastic changes needed to be made.”
“With a new record label and new management she was guided to ditch her everyday image and pivot 180 and sell herself as a 'sexpot,' ” the individual added.
Personally, the vocalist is allegedly struggling to accept doing racy songs that feature hot lyrics and revealing clothes despite having slammed trolls over the same thing.
“It made her very uncomfortable as behind closed doors she wears sweats, little make up, and likes to stay home and watch Netflix,” the insider continued.
They added, “Sabrina Carpenter been a Disney girl like Selena Gomez. To suddenly be showing skin and singing provocative lyrics was a challenge. She had to embrace her acting skills, but it worked.”
To her friends, she reportedly “sometimes feels like a fraud.”
And this not only because Sabrina Carpenter is posing a “fake image,” but because she will do “whatever it takes to get famous.”
