Sabrina Carpenter is making a bid for world domination. 

The pint-sized pop star, 25, saw her profile skyrocket to international fame last year, thanks to her sixth studio album, Short n’ Sweet. 

And although the record was released on August 24, Carpenter is still reaping the rewards of her hard work – as the album has now broken a record. 

Short n’ Sweet is now the fastest album by a female artist to have three songs surpass one billion streams in Spotify history.

The news comes after Taste – the third single released from Carpenter’s album – reached the milestone figure. 

Sharing the news to her 46.7 million Instagram followers, Carpenter simply wrote, “Thanks for listening.”

The other songs to have reached the magic billion streaming figures are Espresso and Please Please Please.

It’s not the first time Carpenter has broken a record

In 2024, it was announced how Carpenter had spent more weeks at number one in the UK in a single year than any other female artist in history. 

She was in the top spot for a whopping 19 weeks.

Sabrina Carpenter crashes SNL opening monologue 

Fans also went wild for Carpenter’s SNL appearance this weekend. 

The Feather singer crashed Abbott Elementary star Quinta Brunson’s opening monologue on May 3. 

Brunson delivered the speech in musical form, and the pair joked about the many benefits and joys of being short – shouting out celebrities such as 4’8” Olympian Simone Biles, 5’7” actor Tom Holland and 5’5” Kendrick Lamar. 

The unlikely duo then ended the number agreeing that life is “just more fun when you’re fun-sized”.
