Sabrina Carpenter achieved a career milestone this week as her latest studio album, Short n’ Sweet, topped the Billboard 200 albums chart, marking her first leader on the tally. To celebrate, the 25-year-old pop star took to social media to thank fans for their support.
“can’t express my gratitude. My first #1 album!!!!” she wrote in an Instagram post. “thank you for listening to short n’ sweet. thank you for believing in me all these years! couldn’t do any of this without you 💋:’) this feels really special. love you all.”
The five-foot tall singer jokingly added on X, “big week for the vertically challenged.”
Short n’ Sweet is Carpenter’s seventh charting album but first to reach the top 20. Her first visit to the chart came in 2015 with Eyes Wide Open, peaking at No. 43. Until this week, Carpenter’s best chart rank came with the 2022 release Emails I Can’t Send, which debuted and peaked at No. 23.
She also simultaneously has three songs in the top five of the Hot 100 songs chart. At No. 2 is Carpenter’s “Taste,” followed by “Please Please Please,” which boosted up from 9-3 after it became her first No. 1 in June. “Espresso” jumps 7-4 after previously peaking at No. 3.
