Its Sunday evening in Manhattan, and someone is working late.
But first, the bathroom needs some tidying up.
They nonchalantly wipe down the toilet before taking a seat.
Sabrina Carpenter made her Madison Square Garden debut on the ‘Short N’ Sweet' tour.Christopher Polk
Gross, they mutter.
She was a vital force in 2024spop girl summer, alongside Charli XCX and Chappell Roan.
And the toilet moment was only one of many kooky highlights at the Garden.
She even referenced the recent news that one of her video shootsmay have indirectly contributed toMayor Eric Adams scandals.
Again, classic Sabrina stuff.
Damn, what now?
Should we talk about how I got the mayor indicted?
You want a hot carpenter advertising sharp tools?
An ad for those ceiling fans from kindly kindly kindly?
She has that, too.
She rushes out onstage wrapped in a bath towel, emerging between two shiny white staircases.
She takes off the towel, revealing a bedazzled babydoll nightie with garters.
She kicked off with the spicyShort n Sweetopener Taste, flanked by dancers.
She sat at a shiny vanity, staring into the mirror.
I feel like Im watching a Broadway show, some girl behind me said.
She capped the song by quipping, Im playing at MSG, and youre not!
Later, the host gave us a recap: Sabrina serenaded us by the fire!
She sang us a tune on the toilet!
Up next, the party continues.
But first, get the tissues ready, because we have some hot breaking ballads in store!
Were so lucky to have her.
She joked about how superior New York water tastes, and playfully told the crowd shut up!
when they wouldnt quiet down.
And now everyones in the room having a laugh with their friends.
Hopefully, we can keep that going.
The Dunkin Donuts inside the venue weirdly does not sell donuts, but thankfully, theres plenty of coffee.
But no matter, she made sure to emphasize how much the evening meant to her.
This is like home to me.
So thank you so much.
The pleasure is ours.
