Iranian singer Shervin Hajipour, a Grammy award winner presented by US First Lady Jill Biden, has been sentenced to over three years in prison for his anthem supporting the 2022 protests following the death of Mahsa Amini.

Hajipour shared part of the judgement against him on Instagram, coinciding with Iran's parliamentary election day.

The court sentenced him to three years and eight months for "propaganda against the system" and "encouraging people to protest," citing his alleged failure to express adequate regret for releasing the song.

Following some online debate, Sabrina Carpenter is providing an alternate cover to her upcoming album, 'Man's Best Friend,' and says its approved by the man upstairs.

After announcing the new album a few weeks ago, Carpenter received backlash for the record’s cover art, which saw her on her knees in a black dress as presumably a man stood out-of-shot and clutched onto her hair.
