In October 2023, Carpenter released a music video filmed in Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary Catholic Church in Brooklyn, New York, depicting her dancing provocatively on the altar. Profane decorations were also placed on the altar in the video, which depicts men killing each other over Carpenter and showing their coffins in the church. [152] After Catholics expressed outrage, Brooklyn Bishop Robert Brennan released a statement saying he was "appalled" by the video and would investigate how it was allowed to be filmed at the church. [152] The pastor of the church wrote a letter apologizing to the parishioners, saying the film crew did not make him aware that anything provocative would be filmed inside the church and pledging to donate the $5,000 the parish received from the film crew to a pro-life pregnancy resource center. [153] Bishop Brennan offered a Mass of reparation at the parish which "restored the sanctity of this church and repaired the harm." [154] The diocese found that the pastor had not followed correct procedures for approval of the filming, which requires a review of the script; [155] the bishop stripped the pastor of administrative duties over the parish and removed him from his post as vicar of development for the diocese. [154] Carpenter responded to the controversy by saying that advance permission had been granted, and proclaiming that "Jesus was a carpenter". [156] [157] [158]
