Inside Sabrina Carpenter's luxurious £6,500-a-night Tuscany villa trip amid tour success
Singer Sabrina Carpenter has treated her friends to a luxury getaway in Tuscany, reportedly costing £6,500 a night. The chart-topping star headed to the lavish Italian destination with her pals after performing at London's Hyde Park earlier this month.
Sabrina, 26, is currently on the road with her Short n' Sweet Tour, which has seen her visit cities around Europe before her North American leg kicks off next month. Enjoying some downtime between dates Sabrina reportedly headed to the 600-year-old Villa I Busini.
The luxury accommodation features seven-bedrooms, walled gardens, a swimming pool, and even boasts having a private chef on hand to prepare an array of delicious dishes for guests.
Sabrina wasted no time in showing off the finer details of the stunning residence to her fans as she shared a string of images on Instagram where she was sightseeing, eating pasta dishes and soaking up her stunning surroundings.
One snap saw her posing beside a tree in a white cropped milkmaid-style top and knicker-shorts showing off her toned midriff. In another picture she wore a red maxi dress while walking on the couch, while a third showed her eating a bowl of spaghetti outdoors.
Sabrina was also snapped playing tennis with friends, doing some general sightseeing, as well as drinking a spritz, playing with a random cat, and crouching down on a desk in a library.
Sabrina is next scheduled to perform at Lollapalooza in Chicago on August 3 ahead of the release of her seventh studio album, Man's Best Friend, on August 29, 2025.
She will then perform as headliner at Austin City Limits Music in October, before continuing her Short n' Sweet tour in Pittsburgh, heading on to dates in New York, Nashville, Toronto and Los Angeles.
The Manchild singer recently faced a backlash when she debuted the album artwork for Man's Best Friend, which featured her posing on all fours as she was pulled by the hair by a man.
The display caused outrage as she accused of "reducing women to pets" by a leading domestic violence charity. She also faced heavy criticism from several other sources online leading to her launching an alternative artwork for the upcoming release.
The second cover – "approved by God" – shows her holding the arm of a handsome man while standing in the middle of a crowded room in a black and white image.
Sabrina has also since launched a third album cover which shows her wearing black lingerie and a sheer nightdress while surrounded by roses.
While she has added two alternatives to the original, controversy causing album cover, the first artwork will also still be available for fans who want to buy that version of the release at the end of August.

Justin Bieber blows off steam as he goes shooting with friends on guys' trip
Justin Bieber took to Instagram on Sunday with a slew of photos from what appeared to be a trip with friends. The 31-year-old superstar — who shared a cryptic four-word post on Saturday — shared snapshots of himself shooting at a target in the woods. He bared his heavily tattooed arms and torso while going shirtless and wearing a pair of black sweatshorts. The father-of-one — whose son Jack Blues, whom he shares with wife Hailey, will turn one this month — sported black socks and white slippers. Justin wore a pair of sporty, translucent sunglasses and protective electronic ear muffs. He didn't bother captioning the images, which he spread out over multiple posts. One snapshot showed the music artist sitting in the backseat of a van while music producer Carter Lang drove and other guy friends piled in. Another picture showed Justin in a slogan sweatshirt with his infamous quote, 'It's not clocking to you.' It comes after the Daisies hitmaker appeared online Saturday evening to share a vague post with his 294 million Instagram followers. He shared a closeup black and white selfie and added a cryptic caption: 'Broke another olive branch.' The lifelong performer didn't add any context, but he could have been hinting at ending another friendship after a June post included screenshots from a heated text exchange he had with a former buddy. In February a rep for the star told TMZ he's had a 'very transformative' past year, in which 'he ended several close friendships and business relationships that no longer served him.' Last week the singer admitted to 'selfish' behavior in another social media caption, writing, 'Thanking Jesus for his patience with me this morning. I can be extremely selfish and impatient yet Jesus always has his arms open toward me.' The boys' day out posted on Sunday seemed to also include music-making, as Justin shared photos singing into a studio microphone. There were also outtakes of the global star holding a guitar while dressed in a gray sweatshirt. Justin released his surprise seventh studio album, SWAG, to great fanfare on July 11. Several songs make mention of his public persona, personal struggles, and his commitment to his wife Hailey and their baby. There is also a theme of interludes featuring comedian Druski, in which Justin engages in candid 'therapy sessions' with the social media star. Rumors have recently circulated that the music sensation will tour Australia following the album release. Justin has not confirmed whether he will be touring, nor has Frontier Touring, who told Rolling Stone it had no information on any potential Australian tour dates.

Vittorio Angelone on Kneecap, the Troubles and the Edinburgh Fringe
The Irish-Italian comedian is no stranger to voicing his own opinion, having made a name for himself online with nearly 500,000 followers across social media. He made his Edinburgh Fringe debut in 2022, where he was nominated for Best Newcomer at the [[Edinburgh]] Comedy Awards. This year, Angelone returns with his brand new show, "you can't Say Nothing any more", which plays on three main themes: The concept of offensive comedy, growing up in the wake of the Troubles, and the responsibility on comedians to be activists. (Image: Rebecca Need-Menear) On the third point, Angelone has been frequently vocal about his support for Palestine, and has frequently defended Irish rap group Kneecap, who are known for their pro-[[Palestine]] views. The trio were recently axed from Glasgow's TRNSMT festival, with organisers citing "police concerns". Reflecting on the decision to remove Kneecap from the line-up, Angelone said: "I think it's pathetic that they thought it's going to cause some kind of riot because Kneecap are performing. READ MORE: I'm performing at the Fringe but fear I won't be allowed to re-enter the US "It's a bit cowardly, especially on a weekend in Glasgow where there's far more hateful events taking place," he adds, referring to the more than 50 Orange Walks which took place in the city ahead of the festival. He continued: "From my experience at Kneecap gigs, it's not about anybody getting hurt, it's just about high energy and expressing ourselves and having a good time. "Maybe it does come down to Palestine and speaking out about it. But that's part of running events: You have to have a bit of balls and put the thing on, people want to see it." In his Fringe show – which has mostly sold out – Angelone considers the "guilt" that he felt for not being around during the Troubles. The comedian reflected on growing up in Belfast, which he described as "a peaceful place that was very recently a violent and dangerous place". He told The National: "There is a feeling of guilt in that most adults that I grew up around are deeply traumatised, and we're sort of standing on their shoulders. "I think there's also a bizarre, I hesitate to use the word jealousy – but that is what it feels like, especially when you're 19 or 20 – of the people who were involved in the violence. "You just want a cause. You've got so much energy and such a lack of your own identity, you have so little self worth that I think somebody grabbing you by the arm and going, 'this is where you should point all your energy, this is the right thing to do' – it solves a lot of the problems that young people face." (Image: Rebecca Need-Menear) Angelone has previously described himself as "always Irish, sometimes Northern Irish, but never British". So where does he stand on Scottish independence? "With Ireland, it feel very obvious because it's one island, and then Scotland, it isn't," Angelone told The National. "I think we can all admit that being Scottish is a very distinct thing from being English, unless you're in Edinburgh," he joked. READ MORE: I was homeless and using drugs. Now I'm playing at the Edinburgh Fringe He went on: "Even though I grew up on the Catholic side in Belfast, I try to take a step back from the tribal element. I don't think the Republic of Ireland's a perfect place, and I don't believe in us being absorbed into the Republic of Ireland as it currently stands." Angelone added that any political solution for both Ireland and Scotland had to be about "whatever gets the people a bigger say". He told The National: "Scotland has a legitimate cultural reason, and arguably the economic feasibility, to be an independent place where everyone would have a bigger voice in how they're governed. "I can see that as a positive." 'I've got some plots and schemes to make very stupid things happen' Angelone's Monkey Barrell has already sold out – leading him to announce two extra shows at McEwan Hall, the historic graduation hall at Edinburgh University. (Image: Connall McHugh) "I've never been in McEwan Hall, and I'm quite excited. My cousins graduated there, and they're annoyed that it took them four years of hard work to get there," he told The National. "But I would argue it's probably taken me four years of hard work – this is my fourth year at the Fringe. I'm sort of graduating from the Edinburgh Fringe." With the venue being so much bigger – at a capacity of more than 1000 people –Angelone implied that he had "some plans, plots and schemes to make very stupid things happen", particularly given his first show happens to coincide with Oasis's return to Edinburgh. READ MORE: 'Joy, celebration and warmth' of Palestinian art to be showcased at Edinburgh Fringe "I might have to do a little nod to the Gallaghers," he hinted. "If you had a Venn diagram of Oasis fans and Edinburgh Fringe-goers, it would be two separate circles for the most part. "My gig is at 11pm. I'm not sure what time Oasis are due to finish at Murrayfield, but I hope it's late enough that none of them can come to my show." Vittorio Angelone: you can't Say Nothing any more is at Underbelly's McEwan Hall venue on August 8 and 22 at 11pm. The show's Monkey Barrel run is sold out.

Not your average Dad jokes: the comedian that all my mum friends fancy
George Lewis has been my maternity leave companion. The 37-year-old comedian from Stockport clocks up hundreds of thousands of views for his Instagram reels. Mums on maternity leave, he tells me, form a big bulk of his audience. I can see why. On the trials of parenting young children, he is brilliantly entertaining and instantly relatable — an antidote to all those social media accounts sharing visions of perfect parenting. And fellow mums admit to a bit of a crush on Lewis. With his very good hair and cheeky grin, he is a dad you might not mind bumping into at the school gate. He started posting comedy sketches on Instagram during the pandemic and it was the parenting ones that struck a chord. He has three children, aged two, five and seven, with his wife, Harriet, and 625,000 remarkably well-behaved Instagram followers. His series in which two toddlers chat to one another like adult friends is among his most popular content. The toddlers (both played by Lewis) discuss the devastation of dropping a piece of banana on the floor, adding 'character' to blank, freshly painted walls with a crayon, and the impact of dropping the daytime nap: 'Maybe it has affected me a little bit.' We've all been there.
