Sabrina Carpenter hit back at criticism over the selection of lingerie outfits the pop star wears on tour.
Carpenter, 25, took the stage over the past two weeks in a handful of bodysuits and lace fits that have left some with a negative impression.
"But you'll still get the occasional mother that has a strong opinion on how you should be dressing," the "Taste" singer told TIME magazine. "And to that I just say, 'Don't come to the show,' and that’s OK."
"It's unfortunate that it's ever been something to criticize, because truthfully, the scariest thing in the world is getting up on a stage in front of that many people and having to perform as if it's nothing," she added. "If the one thing that helps you do that is the way you feel comfortable dressing, then that's what you’ve got to do."

"Femininity is something that I've always embraced," she noted. "And if right now that means corsets and garter belts and fuzzy robes or whatever the f---, then that's what that means."

Carpenter began her first arena tour on Sept. 23 in Colombus, Ohio. The former Disney star is expected to continue the Short n' Sweet Tour through March 2025, with her last stop in Milan, Italy.
The rising pop star has been figuring out how to handle the criticism, especially on social media.
"Someone told me this, whenever I would get upset or feel like I'm the only one getting criticized for something other people are able to do seemingly so freely: I'm the one that's seeing all the negative s--- about myself. My friends don't see that," she told TIME.
