Sabrina Carpenter proved once again she truly is comfortable in her skin.

The Bed Chem songstress, 26, went nude for the cover of Rolling Stone’s July/August cover, posing in just sexy sheer stockings with her high heels kicked off.

The ethereal shoot saw Sabrina posing with her arms strategically covering her chest and her long, blonde hair cascading down her back.  

The display is not a surprising one given Sabrina’s embrace of sex on her Short and Sweet tour, where she famously strikes an array of X-rated poses as part of her Juno song routine.

While fans can be heard cheering during these moments, Sabrina has also received criticism for the NSFW display. 

Addressing the hate, she poignantly noted the sex-centric songs are the ones beloved by fans: ‘It’s always so funny to me when people complain,’ she told Rolling Stone of her Juno moments. ‘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. 

Sabrina Carpenter really bore it all for the cover of Rolling Stone, in a shoot captured by photographer David LaChapelle 

‘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. If you come to the show, you’ll [also] hear the ballads, you’ll hear the more introspective numbers. 

‘I find irony and humor in all of that, because it seems to be a recurring theme. I’m not upset about it, other than I feel mad pressure to be funny sometimes.’ 

In a subsequent phone call with the magazine, the topic was broached again: ‘I don’t want to be pessimistic, but I truly feel like I’ve never lived in a time where women have been picked apart more, and scrutinized in every capacity. I’m not just talking about me. I’m talking about every female artist that is making art right now.’

As the reporter noted that Swifties were taking photos outside of Taylor Swift’s iconic Cornelia Street, Sabrina elaborated: ‘That’s what I’m saying.’ 

‘We’re in such a weird time where you would think it’s girl power, and women supporting women, but in reality, the second you see a picture of someone wearing a dress on a carpet, you have to say everything mean about it in the first 30 seconds that you see it,’ she continued. 

Sabrina even wrote a song hitting back at the criticism she’s received online, Needless To Say, a vinyl-only bonus track for Short and Sweet.

Some of the lyrics state: ‘A pretty dress, an awkward angle/I bet you zoomed in close and held it up to show all of your friends.’

‘It’s something that keeps coming back,’ Sabrina added. ‘We just have to grow thicker skin, but they don’t have to learn how to shut their mouths.’
