Pop Sensation, Bucks Native Sabrina Carpenter Wins 2 Grammys

BUCKS COUNTY, PA — Pop music sensation and Bucks County native Sabrina Carpenter took home a pair of Grammy Awards Sunday night for Best Pop Album (Short n' Sweet) and Best Pop Solo Performance (Espresso).

Going into Sunday night's 67th Grammy Awards, the 25-year-old pop star who was born in Quakertown and raised in Montgomery County, had received a whopping six nominations including album of the year, record of the year, song of the year, and best new artist.

Prior to winning the Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album, Carpenter, who dominated the charts in 2024, gave a standing ovation performance of her two hit songs, "Espresso" and "Please Please Please," both from her sixth studio album, "Short n' Sweet," her first album to debut atop the Billboard 200.

Released in April 2024, "Espresso," earned Carpenter her first Top 10 single on the Billboard Hot 100, while "Please Please Please" topped the Billboard Hot 100.

The performance was something of a victory lap for "Espresso," which won Carpenter Best Pop Solo Performance at the Premiere Ceremony.

"I really was not expecting this, and all those nominees that were just on the screen are some of my favorite artists in the world. I can’t believe I’m nominated against them or even in this room right now," she said in accepting the Best Pop Album Grammy.

"This is - whoa - my first Grammy, so I’m gonna cry ... I feel so lucky to be able to come together and do something so special and beautiful and celebrate music. I want to thank all the fans that let my music be heard by the Recording Academy."

Carpenter also thanked her my mom "for driving me to every voice lesson in Bala Cynwyd and I wanna thank my dad and my sisters," she continued. "I want to thank Island Records. This is so special to me, and Short n’ Sweet means the world.

"Thank you to all the producers and writers that made this album ... I love you guys. You have no idea how much I love you, and how much this album means to me."
