White House Deletes Video Using Sabrina Carpenter Song She Slammed As ‘Evil’

The video is no longer available on the White House’s X account as of Friday afternoon, and although it is still up on TikTok, the audio of Carpenter’s song is no longer available.

It’s unclear why the video was taken down, though some artists have previously complained about the Trump administration’s use of their music and forced it to take such posts down on copyright grounds.

Carpenter slammed the White House in a response to its since-deleted post that has garnered 1.7 million likes: “This video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.”

Before the post was deleted, the White House doubled down and slammed Carpenter in a statement using her own lyrics: “Here’s a Short n’ Sweet message for Sabrina Carpenter: we won’t apologize for deporting dangerous criminal illegal murderers, rapists, and pedophiles from our country. Anyone who would defend these sick monsters must be stupid, or is it slow?” White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson told CNN.

The video was set to an edited version of Carpenter’s song “Juno,” which repeats the line: “Have you ever tried this one?” and each time the line repeated, the video showed a different clip of ICE officers detaining immigrants, some of whom were handcuffed, chased and held to the ground.

“Have you ever tried this one? Bye-bye 👋😍” the White House said in the caption.

The audio has previously been used in a viral TikTok trend in which users would satirically mimic different sex positions each time the “Have you ever tried this one?” line plays, inspired by Carpenter’s performances of “Juno” on tour, in which she would mimic a different sex position during each show.
