Sabrina Carpenter Takes 'Manchild' to the Skies in Airport-Themed Grammys Performance

The pop star arrived as a six-time nominee building on last year’s two Grammy wins.

Overview

  • Performing at Los AngelesCrypto.com Arena, she staged a retro airport set with a baggage conveyor entrance, a plane backdrop, and dancers portraying travelers like astronauts and doctors.
  • Dressed in an all-white pilot look, she delivered a playful “captain” intro and closed by waving air-traffic wands before tossing them to the audience.
  • The number included a live white dove that Carpenter held as the plane set’s door lifted.
  • Variety reported that the televised chorus tested censors with a series of F-bombs.
  • Carpenter entered the 68th Grammys with six nominations across major categories, lost Best Music Video to Doechii earlier in the evening, and is slated to headline Coachella in April.
