During a recent concert in New York, singer-songwriter Sabrina Carpenter broke her silence on the controversy surrounding her “Feather” music video, which has been linked to an ongoing investigation involving a local priest and New York City Mayor Eric Adams. The investigation reportedly centers around the priest’s suspicious activities, with further scrutiny being placed on his political connections.
 


The drama escalated after the release of Carpenter’s “Feather” video, which featured provocative imagery set inside a church. Fans and critics alike noted the bold artistic choices, sparking heated debates across social media. What initially seemed like a creative statement soon took a serious turn when reports surfaced that the priest featured in the video may have been involved in questionable dealings with Mayor Eric Adams.

The investigation has since gained momentum, drawing public attention and media coverage. During her performance in New York, Carpenter didn’t shy away from the controversy, cheekily addressing the crowd: "Should we talk about how I got the mayor indicted?" Her comment was met with laughter and applause from the audience, demonstrating her ability to handle the scandal with humor while acknowledging the impact it has had on her public image.

Though Mayor Eric Adams has yet to release an official statement, sources close to the investigation have hinted that the priest’s ties to city officials could lead to further legal action. Carpenter’s “Feather” video and its connection to these political figures have thrust the young pop star into the limelight for reasons far beyond her music.

Fans of Sabrina Carpenter have come out in support of the singer, praising her for addressing the issue head-on. Many have taken to social media to voice their opinions, with some defending her artistic freedom and others calling for clearer boundaries between entertainment and religious imagery.

As the investigation continues, all eyes remain on both Sabrina Carpenter and Mayor Eric Adams, whose political future could be affected by the unfolding events.
