Sabrina Carpenter Condemns White House ICE-Raids Video Using ‘Juno’ as White House Defends Post

The dispute reflects a recurring tactic of pairing viral music with immigration footage that has repeatedly drawn objections from artists.

Overview

  • The White House posted an X video that juxtaposes ICE raid footage with the “Have you ever tried this one?” lyric from Sabrina Carpenter’s song “Juno.”
  • Carpenter called the clip “evil and disgusting” and told officials not to involve her or her music in what she labeled an inhumane agenda.
  • The White House responded through spokeswoman Abigail Jackson, refusing to apologize and framing deportations as targeting dangerous criminals.
  • The video remained available on X and TikTok as of Tuesday afternoon, according to CNN reporting.
  • The episode follows earlier complaints from musicians, including Olivia Rodrigo, over government accounts using their songs in enforcement-related posts, and Carpenter has not announced any legal action.
