00:00 I've been growing up with her advice in her songs

00:02 'cause it's very much like a how-to book

00:04 on how to survive as a young woman.

00:07 Hey, what's up?

00:08 It's Sabrina Carpenter and this is Billboard News.

00:10 (upbeat music)

00:13 Hey everybody, it's Rania Niftos with Billboard News

00:22 and I'm here with one of my favorite artists,

00:24 Sabrina Carpenter.

00:26 - Hello.

00:27 - Hey.

00:28 - Hi.

00:29 ♪ 'Cause I like to pour it ♪

00:31 ♪ So don't leave ♪

00:33 ♪ We're looking so pretty tonight ♪

00:35 ♪ Wearing your favorite color under the light ♪

00:38 ♪ I'll be honest ♪

00:40 ♪ Looking at you got me thinking nonsense ♪

00:43 ♪ Cat was in my stomach when you were ♪

00:45 - This looks a little different

00:47 than the usual Billboard set

00:48 because we are here behind the scenes

00:51 of your new fragrance, Caramel Dream.

00:54 - Yeah, we on set for sure.

00:55 - We drenched ourselves in it earlier.

00:57 - We smell crazy.

00:58 - So good right now.

00:59 - So good.

01:00 (laughs)

01:01 And yeah, I mean, it's your second fragrance.

01:04 - Yeah.

01:05 - How exciting.

01:05 - Yeah, I feel, I mean, I feel so lucky

01:07 to make one fragrance, let alone two.

01:10 It's also really nice because you know when you get

01:11 like a pet and like the pet's like kind of lonely

01:14 and you're like, "Oh, I need to get another cat now

01:16 'cause the cat's alone."

01:18 That's how I feel about the fragrance.

01:19 'Cause like the first one now has like a sister.

01:22 It has a companion.

01:24 But they're both very different and unique

01:25 in their own special ways.

01:26 So it's hard to choose a favorite,

01:28 much like a pet. - Of course,

01:29 like your children, like your pets.

01:30 - Like your pet.

01:32 And yeah, I'm so passionate about the fragrance

01:34 because it smells, it smells incredible.

01:37 I mean, it's all the things that I love

01:39 and it's very aligned with like

01:42 where I'm at in life right now.

01:44 - Where you're at in life right now is not too shabby.

01:46 - Oh, thank you.

01:48 - You wrapped your own tour, which was beautiful.

01:51 Loved the scenery, loved everything.

01:53 - Thank you so much.

01:54 - And you're about to go on tour

01:55 with the one and only Taylor Swift.

01:57 - The one and only.

01:58 - The heiress tour.

01:59 What was your reaction when you found that out?

02:02 - Oh my God.

02:03 Honestly, I didn't really have a whole lot of thoughts.

02:06 Your mind kind of just goes.

02:08 - Right.

02:09 - That is, you know, one of my main inspirations

02:12 ever since I was a little girl.

02:14 ♪ As far as I'm concerned ♪

02:15 ♪ You're just another picture to burn ♪

02:19 - Roland, now to just be able to like watch

02:22 that show every night is gonna be so special.

02:24 And I feel so lucky that we get to go

02:26 to all the places we get to go with her.

02:28 - Has Taylor given you any advice on performing,

02:31 on your career or anything?

02:33 Just, I feel like she speaks like gospel.

02:35 So anything is just.

02:36 - Well, yeah, it's so funny.

02:38 I'm like, I've been growing up with her advice

02:40 and her songs.

02:41 - Right.

02:42 - 'Cause it's very much like a how-to book

02:43 on how to survive as a young woman,

02:45 which is really special.

02:46 But watching her in itself is like how you learn.

02:50 - Masterclass.

02:51 - Yeah, and I just admire her work ethic

02:53 and her talent and her, like, she's just so amazing.

02:56 So I'm not gonna like, I'm not gonna be weird

02:59 'cause I'm totally with her.

03:00 - Right, right.

03:01 No, it's cute, it's fun.

03:03 - Yeah, it's so fun.

03:04 - And obviously something about your show

03:06 is that your fans look forward to every single time,

03:09 every single stop are the nonsense outros.

03:12 ♪ God has given me all the endorphins ♪

03:15 ♪ I wish I never had to pay my mortgage ♪

03:19 ♪ Beverly is the city I was born in ♪

03:23 ♪ A person I've not even noticed ♪

03:26 ♪ This song is not about Joshua Bassett ♪

03:29 - How do you come up with one every night?

03:32 - I'm not gonna lie.

03:33 I mean, I've made a lot of provocative jokes

03:36 and I put up a, like, I talk a big talk.

03:38 The outros are partially inspired by real life

03:41 and partially like, it's just the more outrageous sometimes

03:46 the more fun it is.

03:47 - Exactly.

03:48 It's all fun.

03:49 - It has to be fun.

03:49 - Exactly, yeah.

03:50 - That's all part of the song.

03:51 You've been in the pop space for quite some time.

03:53 I mean, you grew up basically on camera singing.

03:57 How have you seen pop music evolve, I guess,

04:00 over the course of the past, what, 10 years

04:03 that you've been in the industry?

04:05 - I think what I really appreciate about music,

04:07 but most specifically pop, is that it's always evolving

04:11 and, you know, there's no point in trying

04:14 to like, catch onto a trend

04:15 'cause by the time you catch onto the trend

04:17 we're onto something else.

04:18 And so I think it's more fun and exciting

04:20 to just really always keep exploring

04:21 and finding new parts of myself within my music

04:25 and just being very true to my own personal journey

04:29 and thoughts and all that.

04:30 - And a new growth that I'm seeing in pop music

04:33 over the past few years and something

04:34 that I know you're a fan of is K-pop.

04:37 - Girl.

04:38 - You introduced twice at Women in Music.

04:41 - Yeah, that was so fun.

04:42 - You're close with Lisa from Blackpink.

04:44 - Yeah, I love her so much.

04:44 - I mean, how amazing, what a genre.

04:46 Like, what do you think it is about it?

04:48 I mean, beyond it being just incredibly catchy,

04:51 that is really connecting with people.

04:53 - It's really nice to have fun when you think about life

04:57 because life can be so many things

04:59 and a lot of the time it's heavy and it's confusing.

05:01 And so I really do appreciate, you know,

05:04 how much fun I have when I listen to K-pop,

05:07 but I mean, so many different artists I'm a huge fan of.

05:10 And more than that, like, they're just impressive.

05:13 They're some of the most like,

05:15 talented people I've ever met.

05:17 ♪ I give a second chance 'cause you give ♪

05:21 - If you guys wanna know more about Caramel Dream,

05:24 Sabrina and I ran through the entire thing

05:26 over on Talk Shop Live.

05:27 We smelled the fragrance, we talked about the notes,

05:29 we talked about the inspiration, we did the whole thing.

05:32 - We talked a lot.

05:33 - We talked, we chatted away.

05:35 - Touring with Taylor Swift,

05:37 we need to know what era is she in, what album era?

05:40 - What, is the fragrances?

05:42 - Yes.

05:42 - Ooh, that's a really good question.

05:44 I guess there's a little part of me that wants to say red.

05:49 Only because when I think of like,

05:52 when I think of red, I think of like a fall album.

05:55 - That's what I was gonna say.

05:56 You can catch it all over on Talk Shop Live

05:58 and you can buy the fragrance directly there, super easy.
