Sabrina Carpenter delivered a show-stopping performance at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, captivating the audience with an “out of this world” spectacle. Introduced by music icon Cyndi Lauper, the pop star performed a medley of her summer hits, including “Please Please Please,” “Taste,” and “Espresso.”
Sabrina Carpenter, dressed in a sparkling silver outfit, began her performance suspended from the sky on a swing as she sang “Taste.” Once lowered to the stage, she was joined by an alien and astronaut, dancing on a moon-like set. The intergalactic theme continued as she shared a playful onstage kiss with the alien and led a group of astronauts in synchronized dancing to “Espresso” and “Please Please Please.”
Her performance was a highlight of the night, especially as Sabrina Carpenter was nominated for six VMAs, including Artist of the Year, Song of the Year for “Espresso,” and Best Pop Artist. She’s had a phenomenal year, with her latest album Short N’ Sweet debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. Three of her tracks, “Espresso,” “Taste,” and “Please Please Please,” also made it to the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, with the latter becoming her first No. 1 single.
Carpenter’s rise to stardom in 2024 has been meteoric, and her VMAs performance further cemented her status as one of the biggest names in pop music today.
