Sabrina Carpenter's Album Hits The Top 40 — Years After It Was Released

Sabrina Carpenter's Album Hits The Top 40 — Years After It Was Released

Forbes20-03-2025

Sabrina Carpenter kicked off her Short n' Sweet Tour last September, and it's still going, months later. She trekked across America and the U.S., performing all the hits from her latest album, which shares its name with the venture.
After a break for the holidays and the Grammys, where she both performed and won several prizes, Carpenter is back on the road. She is spending much of the spring traveling around Europe before adding another leg in North America throughout the fall in the earliest days of March.
The pop superstar recently took her Short n' Sweet Tour to England. She has performed in Birmingham, London, and Manchester and has more dates in the country's capital coming up. Fans of the singer-songwriter were so excited for her arrival that they have been consuming not just Short n' Sweet in large numbers, but also the album that preceded it.
This week, Emails I Can't Send rises on both U.K.-based charts on which it appears. The full-length, which helped prove that Carpenter was on to something before she became a household name, even manages to soar to a never-before-seen and important peak on one list.
Emails I Can't Send rockets from No. 67 to No. 40 on the Official Albums chart. This frame marks the title's first turn as a top 40 smash on the U.K.'s ranking of the most-consumed albums and EPs throughout the nation.
Carpenter's fifth full-length reaches that important milestone 47 weeks into its time on the Official Albums chart. Of course, the set has been out for much longer than just those 47 frames, but it has risen and fallen on the tally throughout its lifetime.
As it breaks into the top 40 on the Official Albums chart for the first time, Emails I Can't Send also finds room inside that important tier on one more list. Carpenter's previous effort jumps from No. 65 to No. 39 on the Official Albums Streaming ranking. That's not a new all-time high, though it does come close to becoming one, as it once peaked at No. 37.
Short n' Sweet is still performing very well, even as the project that came before grows in popularity. The Grammy-winning set is present inside the top two on a pair of lists and settles at No. 14 on both the Official Album Downloads and Official Vinyl Albums charts. It has previously conquered both of those and risen into the top three on the others. In the coming weeks, Carpenter's fortunes may improve again as even more attention is paid to her discography, thanks to her massive sold-out shows.

Mormon college student interviews on sex, alcohol are going viral. Why?

Would you rather drink a cup of coffee or a cup of cooking oil? How about hurt a puppy or take a sip of alcohol? These are just some of the questions that have gone viral on a particular corner of TikTok that features videos in which people ask students at Brigham Young University − a college in Provo, Utah owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints − about sex, alcohol and swear words. The videos have become a massive niche on the app, amassing sometimes upwards of 17 million views on a single post and prompting fascination from those unfamiliar with BYU or Mormon culture. USA TODAY has reached out to BYU and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for comment. The TikTokers who make these videos say they get wide-ranging answers from BYU students, but it's the most shocking ones that tend to go viral. Daniel Spencer, a comedian with 1.7 million TikTok followers, says he used to film man-on-the-street interviews at BYU, his alma mater, until the school sent him a cease-and-desist letter around 2023. Spencer, who grew up Mormon but left the church after coming out as gay in 2020, says he believes the videos strike such a chord because they show a culture many people are rarely exposed to − and one that's in stark contrast to stereotypes of other college campuses.

What health & wellness means for you:Sign up for USA TODAY's Keeping It Together newsletter "It's just funny to see that it's become this kind of subculture on the internet that lives around what it must be like to attend BYU," Spencer says. "That's kind of how I felt while attending BYU. While my other friends were at colleges, drinking and partying and having fun, we were doing game nights and going to bed at 10 p.m., so it's just such a very different experience." Why is the internet so obsessed with BYU student interviews? Robert Carpenter is not Mormon and has never attended BYU, but he started filming interviews there after some of his friends from high school who attended the university invited him to visit. Carpenter says he doesn't stage his videos, but he suspects some of the students he's interviewed were likely being sarcastic or self-satirizing with their responses. Like Spencer, Carpenter says he received a cease-and-desist letter from BYU in 2023. He also makes similar videos interviewing students at Liberty University, a private evangelical Christian university in Virginia. In Carpenter's view, these types of videos have such a grip on TikTok because they showcase viewpoints contrary to that of many other college students. Most of the students who go viral say they don't drink alcohol or have sex outside of marriage. Some avoid cursing or drinking coffee. What we can learn from the BYU interviews Both Spencer and Carpenter say their videos aren't meant to disparage BYU or its students. They say most students they've interviewed have been polite and kind. Many happily agreed to answer questions as a welcome break from studying. While it makes sense these videos have drawn interest online, psychotherapist Stephanie Sarkis encourages people to be mindful of their attitude when watching these videos. "If you're watching it to really get to understand how other people live, then that's different than if you're watching it to ridicule someone," Sarkis says. "I think we have to keep that in mind. Are we watching it in a way that we are curious, or is it a way to feel better than? What's our intention?" She adds it's also important to not come to judgements or conclusions about any religion or community as a whole from quick videos. "The best way to find out about somebody's life experiences is to ask them," she says. "One person doesn't speak for the entire group." The way Spencer sees it, every college has its own unique culture. In that sense, BYU is no different. "It's just a fun little gag, fun to see a different kind of culture," Spencer says. "I think if you went to any campus and delved into the deeper parts of their culture, you could find something interesting and you find something worth asking that would be probably weird to everyone else in America." Plus, not every student interviewed in these videos has the same views. Spencer recalls how one student's surprising answer actually helped her land a "ring by spring." While asking students for their favorite swear words, one girl loudly cursed, and another BYU student saw it and was impressed by her brazenness. "A guy slid into her DMs and was like, 'Hey, you seem really chill. I saw you swearing in that video.' And yeah, they ended up dating and marrying each other."

Miley Cyrus Appears To Shade Liam Hemsworth

It looks like Miley Cyrus isn't quite done shading Liam Hemsworth. As I'm sure you're aware, Miley and Liam have a pretty messy history. The pair were together on and off for over a decade, getting engaged twice before marrying in 2018 — and less than a year later, they split for good. Last year, Miley appeared to reference Liam throughout her now-Grammy-winning hit 'Flowers,' which was released on his birthday. She sang, 'I didn't wanna leave you / I didn't wanna fight / Started to cry, but then remembered I / I can buy myself flowers,' and, 'I can take myself dancing / I can hold my own hand / Yeah, I can love me better than / Yeah, I can love me better than you can.' When Miley performed the hit song at the Grammys last February, she notably threw in a couple of pointed ad-libs: 'I didn't want to leave you / But I had to / I didn't want to fight / But we did.' As a result, plenty of fans theorized that Miley was not-so-subtly making a jab at her ex. Fast forward to now, and Miley has seemingly shaded Liam once again. During a recent meet and greet, Miley was reportedly approached by a fan named Liam who asked her to sign a vinyl copy of her latest album, Something Beautiful. The fan later shared a picture of the signed vinyl online, with the words 'the best Liam' written in the top corner. Internet users found the subtle dig hilarious, calling Miley 'the most unserious woman ever' and 'iconic.' 'I just love to see her in her live laugh love yourself era. May she keep thriving!' one user said. 'GOD I missed this shady Miley so much…' someone else wrote. Let me know what you think in the comments!
