Sabrina Carpenter has been experiencing «fast times.»
In a cover story interview with TIME for TIME100 Next, the 25-year-old «Nonsense» singer discussed the moment she realized she had reached a new level of stardom.
Carpenter’s moment came when Dan and Eugene Levy made a joke about her during their opening monologue at the 2024 Emmys.
«That was probably the first time I felt like, Oh, I’m not even there,» she told the outlet.
During the conversation, the «Espresso» musician also discussed how she feels prepared for the stardom she is now experiencing at this point in her career.
«I grew up watching those performances and thinking, ‘I want to do that,'» Carpenter said of his performance at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, which was «another dream come true.» «But then it all just seemed so—not even out of reach, just like I had a different plan in my head of when it was all supposed to happen.»
After years of hard work in the music industry, she can see her efforts pay off.
«I feel so prepared for these moments,» Carpenter explained. «If I was even 17 or 18, I think I would have been way, way more nervous and intimidated.»
