Behind the Scenes at Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Tiny Desk’ Taping: 6 Things You Didn’t See
Sabrina Carpenter's 'Tiny Desk' Concert has arrived. Here's what you didn't see behind the scenes, from best moments from the rehearsal to post show.
On a Monday in early December, Billboard was on hand to watch Carpenter make her Tiny Desk debut — which dropped at noon ET Friday (Dec. 20) — getting to see the singer-actress perform just five feet away (one of her, more or less) at a point in her career where such opportunities are increasingly rare. She’s already in full glam, but still dressed in a Paul McCartney T-shirt and jeans as she practices belting out her arena-made crowd pleasers in the small, sound-dampening office space in between sips of bottled water through a straw, commanding the room as NPR producers mill about adjusting microphones and volume levels. After everyone finally clears out, Carpenter returns to shake hands, say thank yous, take pictures on the set with her band and snap a few Polaroids with her martini glass — not before her makeup artist touches up her lipstick — as everyone packs up.
