Songwriter Amy Allen Confirms the Story Behind Sabrina Carpenter's 'Juno'
Grammy-winning songwriter Amy Allen exclusively spoke to Us Weekly about her work with Sabrina Carpenter on ‘Short n’ Sweet’
Allen couldn’t take too much time out for celebration — she was at work, after all — but she and her fellow musicians broke for “a little congratulatory” toast with Aperol spritzes, “which was very cute and fun,” she said. The tracks listed in Allen’s Songwriter of the Year nomination are indeed quite varied: in addition to three Carpenter cuts (“Please Please Please,” “Taste” and “Espresso”), the roster includes songs by Justin Timberlake, Olivia Rodrigo and Leon Bridges as well as two hits by country artist Koe Wetzel. Allen said her favorite Short n’ Sweet track changes depending on her mood, but she confirmed that “Juno” was indeed inspired by the teen-pregnancy movie of the same name — and the playfully raunchy idea was “fully Sabrina.”
