Jihyo, Sana, and Momo were in for a fun time during Sabrina Carpenter's set at Lollapalooza in Chicago over the weekend. The members of Twice were Sabrina's pick to give her fuzzy pink handcuffs to. The gesture is a concert tradition of hers as she sings 'Juno.' According to Billboard, Sabrina told the audience, 'Damn, we have some beautiful people in this audience tonight, but there are three girls I can't take my eyes off of.' Jumbotron cameras then showed the Twice ladies. 'I was gonna say, 'cause I had to look not once, but twice.' Sabrina then asked Jihyo, Sana, and Momo if they were single and wanted to get married. 'If I were to give you these handcuffs, then I could marry all three of you, right?' Sabrina said. As 'Juno' played, Sabrina said, 'This one's for Twice.' Sabrina further gushed over the moment on Instagram. She said in her Lollapalooza post, 'My beautiful 'Juno' arrestees who I've been fans of for the longest time [Twice]. I love you girls!' In their own post, Twice shared a photo with Sabrina backstage plus snaps of them holding their handcuffs. 'Had the sweetest time with Sabrina Carpenter at Lollapalooza,' Twice said.

5 times Barbie Forteza and Maris Racal fangirled over each other
Real queens support each other — take it from Barbie Forteza and Maris Racal! The two are headliners in movies that are still showing in cinemas — Barbie in "P77" and Maris in "Sunshine" — but instead of having the usual competitive attitude, the actresses are going all-out with their support for one another. Truly a fresh and refreshing take, if we may. Here are five moments through the years of Barbie and Maris fangirling over each other: 1. Maris supporting 'P77' Last weekend, Barbie tweeted, 'Good morning! Happy weekend! Please watch P77! It's still showing in cinemas nationwide!' Following this, Maris quote-tweeted this and said, 'SUPPOOORT!!!!' with heart emojis. Barbie replied with her thanks. That is the ultimate sign to watch 'P77,' which is still showing in cinemas nationwide. 2. These cute photos Barbie and Maris tweeted a photo of the two of them Tuesday night at what appears to be a P77 event. On X, Barbie posted a selfie with Maris from outside the cinemas, while Maris shared a photo of them hugging inside the theater. Once again showing support for each other's films, they both captioned their post, ''SUNSHINE' x 'P77'.' Fans in the replies were delighted, and expressed hope for the duo to have a collaborative project soon. 3. Barbie and Maris want to work together When Barbie said that she wanted to watch 'Sunshine" in late July, Maris replied, casually suggesting they work together. "Barbie what if… work tayo," she said on X. Barbie replied, "What if... game.' Do tell us please when the table read will be! 4. Barbie and Maris dropping each other's iconic lines Barbie and Maris shared a moment in an old Netflix digital series, 'Bida/Bida.' Alongside their loveteams David Licauco and Anthony Jennings the actresses expressed how excited they are to see each other. Then they exchanged the other's iconic lines. 'Ew, I hate your smile," Barbie said quoting Maris' line from 'Can't Buy Me Love.' Meanwhile, Maris showcased Barbie's 'Maria Clara at Ibarra' line complete with an abaniko, 'I hate to say this, Mr. Fidel y whatever your name is, but your idiotic and yes, misogynistic outburst is quite annoying.' The acting queens perfectly nailed the lines word for word, with a delivery that showcases their acting prowess. 5. Barbie and Maris are 'sobrang game' to work together Barbie and Maris have long been 'sobrang game' to have a project together. In a 2023 tweet, the Philippine TV & Film Updates account included Maris and Barbie in a thread about ideal film and screen pairings. It didn't escape Maris, who quote-tweeted the original post and said, 'sobrang game if ever.' Maris' tweet did not escape Barbie, who replied 'Game!' That was in 2023. It's now 2025. We say, when please? 'P77' is still in cinemas, as "Sunshine." Barbie also stars in "Beauty Empire" alongside Kyline Alcantara, Ruffa Gutierrez, South Korean actor Choi Bo Min, and more. It airs Mondays to Thursdays at 9:35 p.m. on GMA Network. It is also available on Viu. — LA, GMA Integrated News
