Sabrina Carpenter has set a new music record in the UK!

This year, she has spent more weeks at number one on the music charts than any other female artist. Across three hit songs, she has held the top spot for an impressive 19 weeks.

A number one song means it’s the most played or streamed track in the UK for that week. One of her biggest hits, Espresso, was even crowned 2024’s ‘Song of the Summer.’

Sabrina’s popularity has soared recently, especially with the release of her album Short ‘n Sweet. She also performed as an opening act for Taylor Swift during The Eras Tour, gaining even more fans along the way.

Though Sabrina Carpenter is now known for her music, she started her career as an actor, appearing in children’s TV shows and films before switching gears to become a pop star.
