Sabrina Carpenter has just wrapped up the European leg of her Short n’ Sweet tour. 

But the pint-sized pop star, 25, is still working lateeeee… because she’s officially the next artist to feature on Fortnite Festival!

If you don’t know, the game means that fans can perform songs as their favorite artists while trying to achieve a high score, and past featured singers have included Billie Eilish and Lady Gaga.

And while fans were excited by Carpenter’s inclusion, none were as thrilled as the Busy Woman herself.

Revealing the news to her 46.2 million Instagram followers, Carpenter wrote on her Story, “My Fortnite Festival season is officially live.”

The Espresso singer then shared a post by Billboard, and joked, “Me if you even care.”

Many of Carpenter’s loyal fans went wild for the announcement. 

One user wrote, “The designer ate,” referencing the skin’s designs. Another agreed, “Skins look fire – can’t wait to see her dance to her own songs in-game.”

Someone else declared in a post, “THEY’RE SO PRETTY OMG”, while another said, “We will be buying.”

However, not everyone was impressed.

One user singled out the face of the skin and said, “They ruined the face.”

Simultaneously, another horrified user added, “Not them turning her into a granny!”

While they appreciated the design, another fan continued, “Very good, it’s just the torso that’s a little too long.”

Sabrina Carpenter meets her youngest fan

While Fortnite is generally recommended for players 12 years old and up – and her music is filled with profanities! – Carpenter has still managed to pull in fans both young and old. 

And last week, it appears that the Taste singer found her youngest champion yet – 18-month-old Murphy Crisp.

In an adorable video shared by her dad, Australian rules football player Jack Crisp, the toddler can be seen begging to hear Carpenter’s hit song, Please Please Please.  

Dragging her father to the sofa, Murphy is then obviously delighted to be watching the music video – and keeps grinning up at Crisp. 

Sharing the clip with his 96.5k Instagram followers, Crisp simply captioned the sweet exchange, “Please please please #girldad.” 

The video caught Carpenter’s attention. 

“She is precious,” the singer commented. “This made my day.”

Carpenter also reposted the clip to her Instagram story, and wrote, “I’m melting.”
