Last Saturday night, Sabrina Carpenter truly owned the stage at “Saturday Night Live”, proving that she might just be the next big thing in pop music. At only 25, the “Emails I Can’t Send” hitmaker delivered a performance that was nothing short of spectacular, especially during a season finale hosted by the charismatic Jake Gyllenhaal.
Sabrina’s evening kicked off with a hilarious twist in a “Scooby-Doo” skit where she played Daphne. Despite the sketch’s unexpected gory twist, her portrayal was spot-on, setting a high bar for the rest of her appearance. But it was her musical performance that had everyone talking.
The pop sensation started strong with her latest hit, “Espresso.” On a bar-themed set, flanked by two dynamic dancers, Sabrina wasn’t just singing; she was performing with a capital ‘P’, complete with engaging choreography that had the audience hooked.
But the real highlight came when she switched gears to perform a medley of “Feather” and “Nonsense.” It’s the outro of “Nonsense” that always keeps fans on their toes because Sabrina likes to shake things up with a new riff each time. On SNL, she ended with a cheeky nod to both the venue and her sense of humor: “He is 30 Rock hard cause I said hi. My sense of humor is, but I am not dry. SNL I just came for the first time.”
Not only did she showcase her vocal prowess and dance moves, but Sabrina also managed to make a playful reference to her relationship with Barry Keoghan, adding a personal touch to her performance that resonated with her fans.
