This isn't Nonsense! American singer who looks identical to Sabrina Carpenter (and even has the same name) claims she gets mobbed in the street for looking like the star

Stepping out in her tiny pink dress with heart cutouts to perform for more than 100,000 on the Eras Tour was not something anyone was expecting from the suddenly popular popstar Sabrina Carpenter.

Bright-eyed and bushy tailed, the 25-year-old is known for her sexy old-school Hollywood style, suggestive lyrics and not-so-serious attitude to fame, even Sabrina herself has dubbed her fame from her recent hit Espresso as an 'overnight success 10 years in the making,'.

The star's new album Short n Sweet is released today - and already has two number one hits - Espresso and Please, Please, Please.

The 12-track pop sensation is the culmination of a whirlwind 18-months for the star - who saw her fame grow exponentially since opening for Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, becoming embroiled in an alleged love triangle with fellow star Olivia Rodrigo - and of course going viral on TikTok.

But the 4ft11' singer's stardom is more than a decade in the making. She landed her first role aged 11, as a guest in NBC's Law & Order, before finding fame in the Disney Channel's Boy Meets World as Maya Hart.

The pint-sized popstar released four albums under Disney, without any singles cracking the Billboard Top 100 -  before her fifth 'Emails I Can't Send' (with Universal's Island Records), finally pushed its way to the US Billboard charts at number 23 and gave her the limelight she deserved.

In the two years since the album came out, Sabrina now is one of the music industries most watched singer with smash-hit producer Jack Antonoff recording her latest album and the Queen of Pop Taylor Swift taking her under her wing as a mentor.

But it's not just her lengthy showbiz career that's proved noteworthy – her list of A-list boyfriends has caused quite the stir – from supposedly dating Saltburn's Barry Keoghan to feuding with fellow pop star Olivia Rodrigo over rumoured love interest Joshua Basset. Other songs on the album are rumoured to be about her love traingle with Shawn Mendes and Camilla Cabello 

Here FEMAIL delves into Sabrina's professional track record and personal life – and how her slow rise to stardom has helped carve out her career.

Slow rise to the top 

Sabrina Carpenter was born in May 1999 in Quakertown, Pennsylvania, to Elizabeth and David Carpenter and was the youngest of four sisters.

Growing up, Sabrina was homeschooled and headed to Los Angeles at the age of 13 to kick-start her acting career.

Sabrina wasn't the first in her family to enter the showbiz world, her aunt is Nancy Cartwright, is the voice of Bart Simpson and many other animated characters including Chuckie Finster from the Rugrats.

In 2021, Sabrina told Wired that the 'talented' Scientologist was her father David Carpenter's sister and gushed about 'learning so much just from' observing the 'legend.'

In the summer of 2012, Sabrina bagged another acting role playing Chloe Goodwin in the sitcom The Goodwin Games before making her way to Disney.

There, she was a voice actor for Sofia the First, and then moved on to playing Maya Hart in the Disney Channel series Girl Meets World in 2013.

Speaking to Cosmo on her lengthy career she revealed: 'I think sometimes it is great to see how far you've come and how you've grown and other times it's a little too humbling for me to see how much my hair used to be teased when I was 13.'

'I did always know I wanted to perform, at two years old when the thought entered my head, it never left.'

Proving a massive success on TV Disney-owned label Hollywood Records decided to snap Sabrina up for a five-album deal, though only four were made, her first single 'Can't Blame a Girl for Trying,' was co-written by Meghan Trainor.

Looking back on the song Sabrina said: 'We all have to have that thing we look back on and go 'well, I was young.'

Friends in high places

Not only does Sabrina have family members in the industry but she's also been able to make friends with some of the masters of pop – including Taylor Swift.

Sabrina, who has been a fan of the 34-year-old since she was a child managed to bag the slot of a lifetime as Taylor's opening act on the Era's Tour.

Before coming on stage Sabrina played a video of her younger self covering the singer's 2006 hit 'Picture to Burn' before heading into her own music.

She played alongside Taylor for six months on the tour and duetted with the superstar on one occasion singing 'White Horse' from her Fearless album together.

Speaking of the monumental moment on Instagram, Sabrina said: 'Nine-year-old Sabrina singing White Horse would never see this s**t coming!

'I love you so, so, so dearly Taylor. Always have, always will.'

Her newfound friendship saw her celebrate Taylor's 34th birthday along with Taylor's right-hand man Jack Antonoff.

Superstar producer Antonoff is behind some of the decade's best-selling Albums including Taylor's Midnights, The Tortured Poets Department, Lana Del Ray's Chemtrails over the Country Club, and Lorde's Melodrama.

Now Jack Antonoff has sprinkled his production magic into Sabrina's new album Short & Sweet and has helped write Please, Please, Please.

And Jack only had amazing things to say about Sabrina to Rolling Stones, 'The way she puts things, I'm immediately right there with her… And [for] anyone who's got to see her live, let alone record her, she's an unbelievable singer. When you're in the presence of that kind of voice, all you want to do is capture it.'

Thanks to the backing of her new showbiz friends, Sabrina has been able to sellout Arena shows across the US and UK, playing the O2 Arena twice despite only playing six shows in the UK previously.

Fashion collabs

 In April, Sabrina became the latest celeb to model Kim Kardashian's Skims brand, posing in a sizzling Spring campaign.

However, not everyone was impressed with Sabrina's high profile modelling job, with fans wondering if her touring partner and pal Taylor Swift approved of the collab with her rival Kim.

Taylor, 34, and Kim, 43, have been locked in a feud since 2016, and rising star Sabrina is a close friend of Taylor's, joining her as a support act for several dates of her Eras tour.

Following the backlash she faced for working with The Kardashians star, speaking to Rolling Stone , Sabrina has finally broken her silence on the controversial decision.

The Pennsylvania-born blonde insisted that the collaboration didn't cause any bad blood between her and Taylor.

She told the publication: 'As much as people want to believe you're tuned into every little thing, I'm not because I'm constantly working. 

'In that scenario, I've been very, very communicative with her about that situation, and I just love her so much and support her till the end.

'So it was no weirdness for me, but I know people will just say things because that's all they have time to do.'

Viral success leading to chart-topping hits 

One of Sabrina's biggest reasons in her road to success is picking up the TikTok market -partly due to her  2022 song Nonsense, which almost didn't make the cut on her album Emails I Can't Send.

When performing the song live, Sabrina tweaks the outro for quippy statement about wherever she is - which often got videoed and then went viral.

While performing Nonsense at Governors Ball in June, she changed the outro lyrics to send a message of support to the LGBTQ+ community.

'Do I text him back, it’s such a tough call / That won’t fit inside me, bro, I’m dumb small / People who hate Pride / can suck my Gov Ball,' she sang, eliciting an uproar from the audience.

'Happy Pride New York!' the entertainer, who is known for reworking the Nonsense outro, later shouted. 

While at BBC's big weekend she cheekily sang: 'BBC said I should keep it PG. BBC I wish I had it in me. There's a double meaning if you dig deep,' while performing at Coachella she sang 'Made his knees so weak he had to spread mine. He's drinking my bath water like it's red wine. Coachella see you back here when I headline,' in reference to her boyfriend Barry's infamous Saltburn scene. 

And last year she released a holiday remix called A Nonsense Christmas.

Her success online certainly led to chart success too.

In June. the songstress , 25, has become the youngest female artist to reach number one and two in the same week in the UK. 

She smashed the Official Charts Company record this week after her two of her catchy tunes topped the charts. 

Please Please Please and Espresso are the secret to her success after the latter earned its place as number one for five weeks on the run. 

Her catchy melody was only knocked of its pedestal after her new single, Please Please Please, soared to number one just days after its release. 

Before Sabrina, Ariana Grande achieved the same two-spot hold in the same week when she was 25 years, seven months and 20 days old in February 2019.

Ariana achieved such success after she reached number one with 7 Rings, Break Up With Your Girlfriend and I’m Bored in at number two.

Sabrina has thoroughly secured herself in the world of pop after she achieved the UK’s most streamed song this week with Please Please Please totalling 9.8 million combined streams. 

Espresso came in second with 8.1 million - which Spotify dubbed 'song of the summer'. It now has more than one billion streams.

Young love and squabbling teens

Prior to Sabrina being a household name, she was dating fellow Disney actor Joshua Bassett in 2020.

The couple were spotted lunching together around LA and shared sweet snaps of them dressed up as Shark Boy and Lava Girl for Halloween the same year.

Despite the pair breaking up in 2021, they became headline news the summer of that year after Olivia Rodrigo released her first album Sour, which seemingly had plenty of shade thrown Sabrina's way.

Olivia had dated Joshua prior to Sabrina and lyrics from the album left fans wondering if Olivia's single 'Driver's License' was about the blonde-beauty.

'And you're probably with that blonde girl / Who always made me doubt,' Olivia says in the first verse. 'She's so much older than me / She's everything I'm insecure about.'

It didn't take long for fans to put two and two together, Sabrina is four years older and dated Joshua right after Olivia.

The rumours were only fuelled by Sabrina who then went on to release the song 'skin' where she sings: 'Maybe then we could pretend / There's no gravity in the words we write / Maybe you didn't mean it / Maybe blonde was the only rhyme,' and fans were quick to jump on the similarities.

While the scandal was relatively small, it did help propel both young women into the spotlight for good, and Sabrina's latest love-interest has crowds of fans screaming too.

After the release of the critically-acclaimed film Saltburn last year, Barry Keoghan because a sex symbol for women across the world.

At the time, Barry and his long-term girlfriend Alyson Kierans, whom he shares a son named Brando with, but the pair announced their split shortly after the film came out in July 2023.

Six months later Barry and Sabrina were rumoured to be seeing each other and were snapped at the Met Gala in New York in May of this year together.

To further drive the rumour mill, Sabrina featured Barry in her latest music video 'Please, Please, Please' as her bad boy love interest and at Coachella this summer changed the outro to 'Nonsense' to 'Man his knees so weak he had to spread mine / He's drinkin' my bath water like it's red wine / Coachella, see you back here when I headline,' with Barry watching the whole performance.

However, the pair have been rumoured to have broken up although no one has confirmed it and he has liked her most recent Instagram post.

While Sabrina doesn't love the attention that comes with fans looking into every detail of her life, she has made her peace with it.

'I want to be honest – I want to just write about what's happening in my life as a 25-year-old girl. But it comes with the territory and I just have to be like … OK!,' she said.

And while it seemed her family did everything to get her on track to be the next star, Sabrina has airred out her families dirty laundry, including her dad, David,

The first single on her 2022 album, Emails I can't send reveals Sabrina finding out about an affair she claims her dad had on hher mum.

Lyrics read: 'And if I do, then I blame you for every worst that I assume, When I'm 45, someone calls me their wife, And he f**ks our lives in one selfish night, Don't think I'll find forgiveness as fast as mom did.'

The blonde-haired superstar is a household name everywhere thanks to her suggestive outros of her track 'Nonsense' and summer smash hit 'Espresso' but that hasn't always been the case for Sabrina Carpenter.

Despite a length record of albums, singles and acting spot, the 25-year-olds rise to stardom has taken years to pull off and it'
