Sabrina Carpenter brought her signature bold humor to Saturday Night Live, turning the iconic stage into a full-on flirt fest that had the audience blushing and laughing in equal measure.

Opening her monologue with cheeky self-awareness, the 25-year-old singer poked fun at her public image, saying:

“Everyone thinks of me as this horndog pop star. But there’s so much more to me — I’m not just h*rny, I’m also turned on and se*ually charged.”

She then said, with a serious expression, "And I love to read. My favorite book is the encyclopedia ... it's so big and hard."

Carpenter’s witty charm didn’t stop there. She flirted with a fan named Will from Maryland, teasing, “What a sexy, unusual place,” before hilariously backing off after he revealed he worked in venture capital.

She also joked about her Man’s Best Friend album cover, which shows her on all fours with someone tugging her hair. 

“If you zoom out,” she laughed, “it’s Bowen Yang helping me up after Martin Short shoved me out of the buffet line.”

The night ended with pure Sabrina energy, a mock arrest by Kenan Thompson for being “too hot,” and two accidental F-bombs during her electrifying live performances of Manchild and Nobody’s Son.
