The short video, released on Monday, includes a compilation of individuals being detained by agents from Immig­ration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and is set to the tune of Carpenter's hit track Juno. "Have you ever tried this one?" the caption attached to the video reads, referencing a lyric from the suggestive song in which Carpenter asks her love interest to "try out some freaky positions". Reacting to the post on X, Carpenter said: "This video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda." Carpenter previously revealed that the song, which paints a fantasy of being in love and wanting to having a baby, is a reference to the 2007 film Juno, which follows the teenage pregnancy of a high-school student. The singer's live performances of the track, in which she adopts different sexual poses on stage, have previously prompted backlash.

The company was ordered to pay an undisclosed amount of damages to GEMA, but said it disagreed with the ruling and is "considering next steps."

I hope this song takes you to the places it took me as I went through a transformation mentally and physically throughout the process of making it. I had to live it to write it. An awakening. An unravelling.

The industry norm is that such deals for independent photographers from agencies are struck in perpetuity, allowing continued use of photos for retrospectives and tributes.

[Taylor Swift] could have gone into a costly lawsuit... [instead] she just sprung into action and did what she had to do. That's the way of life, and we will do what is necessary and legally can be done.
