Forget candlelit dinners and heart-shaped chocolates—Sabrina Carpenter spent her Valentine’s Day the way true legends do: holed up in a recording studio, crafting the next batch of hits to take over our playlists.
The 25-year-old “Espresso” queen was spotted making a dramatic entrance into Electric Lady Studios on Friday (February 14) in New York City, probably fueled by caffeine and raw ambition. Dressed in an all-black ensemble—because nothing screams “I’m here to work” like dressing as the human embodiment of a power move—Sabrina topped off her look with a black fuzzy jacket, black pants, and black heels. Oh, and she carried a leopard-print blanket, presumably to wrap herself in after emotionally destroying us with new music.
Her studio session came just hours after she dropped Short n’ Sweet (Deluxe), proving she has zero chill when it comes to giving the people what they want. The album even includes a duet with country legend Dolly Parton, because if you’re going to collaborate, you might as well go straight to music royalty.
And in case you missed it (which, let’s be real, you didn’t), Vogue just dropped its March cover story featuring Sabrina spilling all the tea—her journey to superstardom, the record label battles, Taylor Swift’s undeniable influence, and the ongoing conspiracy theories about her possibly, maybe, could-be response to Olivia Rodrigo’s debut hit. Basically, if pop culture were a reality show, Sabrina Carpenter would be both the main character and the director at this point.
So, while some people were out having mushy Valentine’s Day dinners, Sabrina was busy making sure we all have something to scream-sing into our hairbrushes at 2 a.m. And honestly? That’s the kind of commitment we stan.
