Sabrina Carpenter Teases ‘Espresso’ Performance in VR Concert Trailer
That’s that Me-ta, espresso! Meta premiered its new trailer for Sabrina Carpenter’s upcoming VR concert, which is scheduled to take place on Friday, July 19 exclusively in Meta Horizon Worlds’ Music Valley.
In the clip, Carpenter is seen dancing around onstage to her Billboard Hot 100 top five hit, “Espresso,” alongside her dancers against a vintage hotel-looking backdrop.
Fans can stream the VR concert in Music Valley, one of the Meta Horizons Worlds available on Meta Quest headsets. The Music Valley concert series gives fans front-row access to music concerts in an immersive, virtual reality space that lets you watch VR concert live and interact with other concertgoers.
Recently, the 25-year-old pop star discussed the reactions to the slightly awkward syntax of her hook’s lyric: “That’s that me espresso.” “So much of what I like is the punchline,” she explained to Sean Evans on Hot Ones. “If people don’t know the punchline, it’s like, waste. That’s how I feel about ‘me espresso.’ I’ve heard a lot of people that were like, ‘She should’ve said, That’s that blonde espresso, duh.’ And I’m like, ‘Well, yes. That is another song as well that deserves its spot in the world, but this one for me … ‘me espresso’ just felt like the right thing to say, and it rhymes with the line before it.”

“I just think it’s so funny,” she continued, shrugging. “Maybe everyone’s right.”
