Sabrina Carpenter bares all in cheeky teaser clip as she hints at next project
Sabrina Carpenter fans have been left too stunned to speak amid the news of a possible new song titled 'Manchild', with many claiming the next track will make her 'Queen of Summer'
Sabrina Carpenter raised the temperatures after posting an impromptu cheeky clip possibly teasing some new music. Fans are already claiming it to be 'the song of the summer', with others also thinking it could be a shout out to her ex, Barry Keoghan.
The singer shook the internet after sharing a vintage-inspired teaser clip on her social media accounts. Wearing a white top, a pair of cheeky denim shorts and course, platform high heels, Sabrina is seen hitchhiking, but is ignored by two cars passing by. The 17-second clip is silent, with no music heard over the scene and ends with Sabrina saying "Oh, boy."
The new song is believed to be titled 'Manchild' after several billboards with her initials 'SC' were spotted across the US. At the age of 26, Sabrina has secured her status as a rising pop star after releasing her hit song 'Espresso' in April 2024.
What was meant to be "a little song before Coachella" ended up reaching the number three spot on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent over a year on the chart. It also marked Sabrina's first top-ten single, leading her to win her first-ever Grammy award for Best Pop Solo Performance.
With currently 2.27 billion streams on Spotify, 'Espresso' became the summer song for 2024 -and now, fans are hopeful that 'Manchild' could be the summer anthem of 2025. One commented: 'Sabrina saved summer 2024 with espresso, now coming to save summer 2025,' with another adding: 'Song of the summer incoming.'
A third fan wrote: 'We're going to have a sabrina carpenter song called 'Manchild'... That's powerful.' Adding a GIF clip of four women making a manifestation, one joked: 'Sabrina Carpenter's new single will not be about Barry Keoghan.'
"So excited for Sabrina Carpenter's new single 'Manchild' to drop!," a fan commented. Another one said: "OMFG SABRINA CARPENTER IS BACK WE ARE SO F***ING READY."
Naturally, the possibility of new music has excited Sabrina fans, who have been craving a taste of what she has been working on. The teaser comes after rumours that Sabrina was cast as the lead character for the upcoming sequel of Mamma Mia 3.
The former Disney Channel star could follow in the footsteps of Meryl Streep, Amanda Seyfried and Lily James at the heart of the beloved franchise. And for fans eager to bring to an end the seven-year drought since the release of Mamma Mia 2, they may not have much longer to wait.
The creator behind the original West End show and its two immensely popular movie spin-offs off Judy Cramer has revealed she has written a script and work for the ABBA-themed musical is once again in the works. Speaking to Deadline, the producer hinted at Carpenter's remarkable resemblance to both Seyfried and Streep's original character: "She'd be a goddess or some relation who would look very much like Meryl Streep," she said. "We know what we want to do with the movie, and it will happen.'

Cowboy Carter tour tickets still available just hours ahead of first London show
Beyonce will take to the stage at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium tonight and fans can still snap up tickets for the gig, as the singer struggles to sell out her Cowboy Carter tour It's good news for British Beyoncé fans wanting to see Queen B in London this week, with hundreds of tickets still available as the iconic singer struggles to sell out her Cowboy Carter tour. The 43-year-old will perform her first of six gigs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this evening, followed by shows on June 7, 10, 12, 14, and 16, after the tour for her eighth studio album began in April in the US in Inglewood, California. At the time of writing, just hours before Beyoncé takes to the stage inside the 62,000 capacity venue, over 105 listings on ticket sites are up for grabs. On TicketMaster, fans can grab a ticket for a seat with a restricted view for just £71, while on Viagogo, members of the BeyHive can pay £54 to secure their place inside Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this evening. Fans with a little more cash to splash on last-minute purchases can get themselves a South GA Standing Ticket for £224.85 or £278 for seated in decent areas. It's a stark difference to the last time Beyonce performed in the UK in 2023 on the Renaissance World Tour, which saw her play five sell-out dates at the same London venue. So far in the Cowboy Carter tour, Beyonce 's set has seen her perform classic hits such as Love On Top, If I Were A Boy and Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It), along with tracks from her latest album, which saw her move into country music, including Texas Hold 'Em, 16 Carriages and II Most Wanted. The Houston-born star has also been performing covers of The Beatles' Blackbird and Dolly Parton's Jolene. Doors are expected to open at 5pm for the show, and the singer has not had a support act on the tour so far. Following the UK gigs, the singer will move on to Paris, where she will play three nights at the Stade De France, before returning to the US to conclude the tour. Beyonce announced the London dates after finally winning the album of the year Grammy this year for Cowboy Carter, released in March 2024, she also won the best country album Grammy as well as the country duo/group performance award for her song featuring Miley Cyrus, titled II Most Wanted. The singer had previously failed to secure the best album prize with 2008's I Am … Sasha Fierce, 2013's Beyonce, 2016's Lemonade and 2022's Renaissance, and dedicated her win to Linda Martell, who features on the album, who was the first black woman to play the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville. The 67th Grammy Awards, held in February, saw the singer extend her lead as the most decorated artist in the event's history with 35 awards. In March, the King hailed Beyonce as 'exceptional' during his online radio show, The King's Music Room, and congratulated her on her first album of the year Grammy. Beginning her career alongside Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams in Destiny's Child during the 1990s, Beyonce has gone on to have six UK number one singles and five UK number one albums. She married rapper Jay-Z, real name Shawn Carter, in 2008, and the couple have three children – Blue Ivy, Rumi and Sir.

Turnstile: Never Enough review – flute solos and formidable tunes from hardcore punk's great crossover band
In April, Turnstile's name unexpectedly appeared in vast letters on the backdrop of Charli xcx's set at the Coachella festival. In the coming months, she suggested, 'Turnstile summer' would replace her ubiquitous 'Brat summer'. Hedging her bets slightly, she also suggested that 2025 would be the summer of everyone from Addison Rae and PinkPantheress to Kali Uchis to Pulp. Nevertheless, Turnstile's name stood out: the quintet are, at root, a hardcore punk band, a product of the fertile Baltimore scene that spawned Trapped Under Ice, Ruiner and Stout. For the most part, hardcore exists in its own world of rigid rules and codes, some distance from the mainstream: extant hardcore punk bands seldom get shouted out by huge pop stars. Then again, hardcore punk bands don't tend to receive Grammy nominations or make the US Top 30, as Turnstile have done. Meanwhile, Charli xcx's endorsement is just another celebrity nod in the band's direction after backing from Metallica's James Hetfield, Judas Priest's Rob Halford, R&B star Miguel and Demi Lovato, who described them as her favourite band. Their tipping point came with the release of 2021's Glow On, on which frontman Brendan Yates moved his shouty vocal style towards singing, and the band expanded their musical remit in unexpected directions. They may be the only act in history to sound like a warp-speed hardcore band in the time-honoured tradition of Minor Threat or the Circle Jerks, and – entirely without irony or satirical intent – like the kind of glossy new-wave 80s pop to which hardcore was once ideologically opposed, on adjacent tracks of the same album. Four years on, Glow On's stylistic shifts feel like a tentative dry run for Never Enough. Yates has abandoned the raw-throated aspect of his vocals entirely: the album's lyrics seem to be dealing with relationship trauma in characteristic emo style ('lost my only friend', 'it's unfair' etc), but something about his voice and melodies now recall Police-era Sting; there's an occasional hint of AutoTune in the mix, too. Some of the experiments Turnstile conducted on Glow On are repeated – the vaguely Smiths-y jangle of that album's Underwater Boi gets another airing on I Care, this time around decorated with what sounds like a Syndrum; guest Dev Hynes, better known as alt-pop auteur Blood Orange, is engaged once more on Seein' Stars, this time part of an impressive supporting cast that includes Paramore's Hayley Williams, Wire star Maestro Harrell and singer-songwriter Faye Webster. But they're joined by deeper forays into unexpected territory. Sunshower starts at 100mph, clatters to a halt, then reboots as a wall of proggy synthesiser and a lengthy flute solo, courtesy of Shabaka Hutchings. Dreaming has a curious, vaguely Latin American rhythmic slant, and horns courtesy members of jazzy funk band BadBadNotGood. Dull, meanwhile, melds beefy nu-metal inspired choruses to glitchy electronic verses, the latter presumably the work of 'additional producer' and xcx affiliate AG Cook. Elsewhere, there is neon-hued pop punk bathed in a dreamy swirl of echo (Time Is Happening), riffs borrowed from Black Sabbath (Sweet Leaf, to be specific, on Slowdive), distinctly U2-esque guitar solos and divebombing dubstep bass (Never Enough). Sign up to Sleeve Notes Get music news, bold reviews and unexpected extras. Every genre, every era, every week after newsletter promotion It's a lot of disparate sounds to marshal into a coherent whole, and there's something hugely impressive about how well Never Enough does it. No matter in which direction Turnstile strike out in, it surprises rather than jars, the transitions smoothed out by an unfailing hooky melodicism that applies as much to distorted riffs as it does to pop-facing vocal lines. The synth-forward pop rock of Light Design and the trad hardcore of Sole might be at different ends of the stylistic spectrum, but they're united by killer tunes. If the album has a problem, it's not a lack of ideas or songwriting ability, but the occasional sense that Turnstile have ventured so far from their starting point that they're in danger of losing their USP, or at least their ability to stamp their identity on the results. As songs, there's nothing wrong with Seein' Stars, the closing ballad Magic Man or the brief, electric piano-backed Ceiling, but they could be songs by any act within the vast, homogeneous mass of 21st-century music that exists in the grey area between rock and pop. In isolation, moments such as those can give you pause, but as part of the kaleidoscopic whole of Never Enough, they're easy to overlook. There's so much else happening, a profusion of ideas so deftly handled that it never feels sprawling or indulgent. If Turnstile's grounding in hardcore has taught them anything, it's the value of being concise. However unexpected their rise into the mainstream, it isn't about to stop. Demise of Love – Strange Little Consequence Daniel Avery, Phantasy Sound labelmate Ghost Culture and Working Men's Club combine to make moody, delightful maximalist electronic pop.

Craig Revel Horwood: I'll spill Strictly gossip and sing for crowds in Stirling, Dundee and Dunfermline
Known for his choreography skills, it's perhaps predictable that Craig Revel Horwood jokes he's looking forward to 'a Highland fling' in Scotland later this month. But it's not just his dancing that the Strictly Come Dancing judge is showing off on his latest UK tour – it's also his less heralded talent for singing. Revel Horwood is due to round off a 43-date road trip with four Scottish shows on The Courier's doorstep. It all follows the release of his debut album Revelations – Songs Boys Don't Sing, which reached the Top 20 in the UK charts last October. The very fact that he's made an LP at all has raised more than a few eyebrows, but Craig actually started singing as a boy in his native Australia in the 1970s. He initially made his name in the early 2000s as a West End director and choreographer, before going on to mastermind the opening to Manchester's 2002 Commonwealth Games. Since settling into the judge's seat he still occupies when ballroom-based BBC hit Strictly was launched in 2004, he has gone on to make his mark on stage over the past decade in roles such as alcoholic orphanage caretaker Miss Hannigan in a touring version of Annie and as The Wizard Of Oz's iconic Wicked Witch of the West. But it was the approach of one of life's milestones that spurred him into the recording studio. 'My mum wanted me to make an album, and I thought I'd better do one before I'm 60, which I am now, and I'll take it out on the road,' says Craig. 'It's a compilation of a lot of women's songs that I've played before, so all of the material is very character-driven. It's a delve into my life as a musician really, because that's how I started contemplating even dancing.' The former Melbourne drag queen, who moved to London in 1989, plays both the trumpet and the French horn, but reveals it was an instrument forever associated with primary school that set him on his musical journey. 'It started with the recorder, which is how a lot of people start,' he explains. 'Everyone laughs at that, but we had a proper consort of recorders. It was a seven-piece and I played at Sydney Opera House, and we actually found a tape recording of us playing in 1978 so I play that to the audience during my show. 'If that's not worth 36 quid I don't know what is.' Putting on his serious face for a moment, Revel Horwood declares his upcoming Scottish sojourn will provide an intimate insight into what makes him tick, as well as the ups and downs he's experienced since becoming a household name. 'The show is about my love for the music and how it's affected my life,' he adds. 'It's about relationships, too, because we all go through the same emotions, so I'll be talking about that, and heartbreak, and where it can lead. 'Adele has proved how much emotion heartbreak can evoke, not just for singers, but for the audience too. 'I'm also going to be telling a lot of showbiz stories, a lot of Strictly backstage goss. What is Shirley Ballas really like? I'll be delving into that, and why Bruno (Tonioli) left. 'I will answer any question I'm asked, whether it's on Strictly, my personal life, anything – I don't care.' Craig, who's joined on stage by his piano-playing Celebrity Gogglebox sidekick Ben Goddard, outlines what to expect in between the revelatory chat. 'The tour is full of weird and wonderful things, like great songs obviously, with a little bit of dancing, some Shirley Bassey I've got up my sleeve, a little bit of Ursula from The Little Mermaid and the mad characters I've played over the years,' he says. 'I wanted to put something together that was really personal and for people to feel like they're just coming to have a cocktail party with me at my house – I even have a cooking segment. 'I won't have my judging panels and I won't have my judge's hat on. I'm going to be just me.'
