Sabrina Carpenter Says She’s ‘So Not Chill’ About Making Her ‘Saturday Night Live’ Debut

Sabrina Carpenter is amped up after making her Saturday Night Live debut, and it’s not just because of all that “me espresso” she’s been drinking.

Following her first-ever performance on the show Saturday (May 18), the 25-year-old singer shared her excitement the next day on Instagram. “literally working late cuz I’m a singer,” she joked, captioning a clip of her performing her hit single “Espresso” on the SNL stage the night prior.

Carpenter added, “@nbcsnl thank you for having us I’m sooooo not chill about it and never will be.”

In addition to “Espresso” — which recently peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking the rising pop star’s first-ever top 10 hit — Carpenter sang a medley of two of her Emails I Can’t Send standouts, “Feather” and “Nonsense.” For the latter, the Work It actress improvised one of her famous NSFW outros, singing, “He is 30 Rock-hard ’cause I said ‘hi’/ My sense of humor is but I am not dry/ SNL I just came for the first time.”

She also appeared as Daphne alongside the night’s host, Jake Gyllenhaal, in a Scooby Doo-themed skit during the episode. In spite of what some fans predicted, the installment featured no allusions to the two stars’ mutual connection, Taylor Swift, who befriended Carpenter on the Latin America, Asia and Australian legs of her Eras Tour more than a decade after dating the Brokeback Mountain actor.

The May 18 show marked SNL‘s season 49 finale, meaning the series won’t resume until the fall. A week prior, Vampire Weekend performed on the Maya Rudolph-hosted episode, before which Dua Lipa did double duty as musical guest and host.
