Bucks County's Sabrina Carpenter cameos on SNL musical monologue with host Quinta Brunson
Host Quinta Brunson dedicated her May 3 "SNL" monologue to her fellow short people, and she was joined by surprise guest Sabrina Carpenter. The Grammy-winning Quakertown native of course knows a little something about being "vertically challenged."
The "Abbott Elementary" star and Philly native launched into a song about the benefits of being short, singing, "I'm 4'11" and I'm taking this town, so if you're looking for a superstar, start looking down." While listing off other short celebrities, she named Sabrina Carpenter, only for the "Espresso" singer to actually show up.

"You were talking about being short, so I thought I'd stop by," said Carpenter, who sang about being 5 foot tall in her song "Taste."
The "Short n' Sweet" singer naturally joined in on Brunson's musical number, singing, "There's so much to do down here, so much to see from the view down here."
Sabrina Carpenter performs onstage during the 67th GRAMMY Awards at Arena on February 2, 2025 in Los Angeles, California.
This was the latest "SNL" appearance for Carpenter, who also sang with Paul Simon and appeared in a "Domingo" sketch during the show's 50th anniversary special. She served as musical guest for the Season 49 finale in 2024, but has yet to host.
Another star from the opposite end of the height spectrum made a cameo during Brunson's monologue: Dwyane Wade, who said that while he may be 6'4", "in basketball world, that's like 4'10"." Cast member Marcello Hernandez joined in as well as sketch character "Domingo."
