Should we expect pop stars to be role models?

If you’ve been anywhere on TikTok or Instagram, you might have seen the uproar related to a new Sabrina Carpenter album cover. The cover sees Sabrina’s hair being pulled while crawling on all fours. For fans, this is nothing new, but many people are shocked online and wondering if Sabrina has more responsibility to be a role model… Joining Andrea to discuss is Ruth Breslin, Director at The Sexual Exploitation Research and Policy Institute, Nadia Adan, Owner of Ashford Motors, Journalist Brenda Power and more.
