Sabrina Annlynn Carpenter (born May 11, 1999) is an American singer and actress. She first gained recognition starring on the Disney Channel series Girl Meets World (2014–2017), and signed with the Disney-owned Hollywood Records to release her debut single, "Can't Blame a Girl for Trying", in 2014. She released four studio albums with the label: Eyes Wide Open (2015), Evolution (2016), Singular: Act I (2018), and Singular: Act II (2019); three of their singles—"Alien", "Almost Love", and "Sue Me"—topped the U.S. Dance Club Songs chart.

Carpenter moved to Island Records in 2021 and released the standalone single "Skin", which became her first entry on the US Billboard Hot 100. Her fifth album, Emails I Can't Send (2022), was supported by the US pop airplay top-10 singles "Nonsense" and "Feather", marking Carpenter's first set of radio hits. She opened for Taylor Swift at the Eras Tour in 2023, and had her commercial breakthrough with her sixth album Short n' Sweet (2024), which became her first to debut atop the Billboard 200, while spawning the Billboard Global 200-number one singles "Espresso" and "Please Please Please".

Carpenter has appeared in films such as the comedy Adventures in Babysitting (2016), the coming-of-age drama The Hate U Give (2018), the road drama The Short History of the Long Road (2019), the musical drama Clouds (2020), and the thriller Emergency (2022). She has also starred in the Netflix productions Tall Girl (2019), Tall Girl 2 (2022), and Work It (2020), the latter of which she executive-produced. On Broadway, she played a lead role in the musical Mean Girls (2020).
