As the sun sets over another summer\u2019s day in London<\/a>, it\u2019s not just the high temperature (and Central Line) keeping Londoners warm, it\u2019s Sabrina Carpenter<\/a> at her absolute best for the British Summertime festival.<\/p>\n The pop princess fills Hyde Park with mostly women: mums<\/a> with daughters, best friends in their thirties dressed in matching baby pink dresses and tweenagers, who were rehearsing the songs\u2019 viral TikTok<\/a> dances before her grand entrance.<\/p>\n Dressed in a red sparkly playsuit, she sings the first notes of Busy Woman \u2013 a very apt song title for the 26-year-old who seems to have been touring since time began<\/a> (Short \u2018n\u2019 Sweet tour began in September 2024 and ends later this year, but BST marks her final UK dates). <\/p>\n Sabrina has got the audience in the palm of her hands as she says her cheeky lyrics, \u2018If you don\u2019t want me, I\u2019ll just deem you gay\u2019 before winking at the camera, which is projected onto the giant screens on either side of the stage. It\u2019s high camp and delivered perfectly into her bejewelled microphone, setting the tone for the evening.<\/p>\n It\u2019s where the party begins, and it doesn\u2019t end for the next 90 minutes, with Sabrina\u2019s high energy mimicked by her enthusiastic fans.<\/p>\n \t\t \t\t She knows what she\u2019s doing when she follows the opener up with crowd pleasers, Taste and Complicated, before slowing things down for Slim Pickins. Her breathy, silky tones are particularly captivating in the low-tempo song, drawing us in with every word. <\/p>\n I\u2019ve been a regular at BST for quite a few years, but I\u2019ve never seen anybody make the headline spot into such a production. The theatrics, costumes, and special effects were of the same quality that you would expect in a stadium tour date. The kitsch 1950s-style adverts between songs are a particular highlight, with Sabrina taking on the role of salesperson for made-up products. <\/p>\n The biggest scream of the night was for a Manchild cleaning spray, which promises to alleviate the lives of boys who don\u2019t grow up. Although Sabrina can\u2019t actually perform miracles in that department, she provides free therapy by letting the audience scream out \u2018Won\u2019t you let an innocent woman be? Never heard of self-care. Half your brain just ain\u2019t there,\u2019 with her. The enthusiasm for her latest song shows that Sabrina\u2019s star power is only rising, so it\u2019s looking good for the Manchild album, which is coming out next month.<\/p>\n Between the hits, Sabrina takes time to converse with the audience and provide the elements that those chronically online were undoubtedly expecting<\/a>. A key segment of her tour is arresting someone for being too hot. It\u2019s often a celebrity, but tonight, she decided to give a young woman from South London, who perhaps appreciated the honour more.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tSabrina Carpenter\u2019s BST set list\t\t\t<\/p>\n Busy Woman<\/p>\n Taste<\/p>\n Good Graces<\/p>\n Slim Pickins<\/p>\n Manchild<\/p>\n Coincidence<\/p>\n Sharpest Tool<\/p>\n Because I Liked a boy<\/p>\n It\u2019s Raining Men (Cover song)<\/p>\n Nonsense<\/p>\n Couldn\u2019t Make it Any Harder <\/p>\n Feather<\/p>\n Bed Chem<\/p>\n Juno<\/p>\n Please Please Please<\/p>\n Don\u2019t Smile<\/p>\n Espresso<\/p>\n \t\t She also used her trademark humour to poke fun at British weather with her own rendition of It\u2019s Raining Men. Seeing Sabrina do a The Weather Girls cover was not on my 2025 bingo card, but I\u2019m glad it happened.<\/p>\n The all-singing, all-dancing and tambourine-playing (yes, she gets a tambourine out) show comes in the face of criticism for her raunchy cover art for Manchild<\/a>. But it\u2019s quite clear her target audience is right behind her, and salutes her cheeky boundary-pushing art. She hasn\u2019t let the haters change her persona, and so, of course, a love heart-shaped bed comes out for Bed Chemistry. <\/p>\n \t\t\t\tWIN four VIP tickets to TRNSMT Festival 2025\t\t\t<\/p>\n \t\t For the eighth year, 150,000 festival goers will descend on Glasgow Green from 11-13 July to see the liked of 50 Cent, Gracie Abrams and Biffy Clyro, and you could be there! <\/p>\n Metro has teamed up with Rockstar Energy presents TRNSMT Festival<\/a><\/strong> to offer four VIP tickets to one lucky winner.<\/p>\n For a chance to win this massive music prize, simply enter your details here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n You have until midnight on Sunday 6 July 2025<\/strong> to enter using the form below.
