While most fans congratulated her on her new achievement, some followers noticed one striking detail about Carpenter’s Instagram post.
Her followers applauded her for leaving her stretch marks untouched, viewing it as a powerful nod to body positivity and authenticity.
“Thank you for not blurring out your tiger stripes!” one wrote.
“Was anyone else hyped to see stretch marks on a celebrity photo and not have them photoshopped out? Yas girl, we’ve all got ’em, thanks for the realness,” a commenter said.
“The tiger stripes … makes me admire you for posting this without editing,” another chimed in.
Fans continue to praise her authenticity, with one echoing the same thought.
“I love that you didn’t photoshop your tiger stripes. Makes me feel better about my body,” a fourth user said.
“Thank you for not editing these photos. GORGEOUS,” a follower added.
The same goes for another who said, “Appreciate you embracing your tiger stripes with confidence!”
The former Disney star revealed in an Instagram post how “special” Man’s Best Friend is to her.
In a lengthy message on Instagram, following the launch of her album, she said that she created it “out of pure inspiration and zero pressure.”
“I don’t think I’ve had greater memories making something before. I made the whole record with 3 of my best, most brilliant friends, Amy, Jack and John. And if I could turn back time and relive these memories, I would,” she wrote, adding that they had “so much fun” creating the album.
The music sensation also described the album as a “real party for heartbreak, a celebration of disappointment.”
