Sabrina Carpenter is loosening her leash on Man’s Best Friend ahead of its release date, with the pop star playing the album for a group of lucky fans who got to hear it before the rest of the world at an exclusive event on Wednesday (Aug. 13).
In an Instagram post shared the following day, Carpenter announced, “Last night was the first playdate for Man’s Best Friend!”

“I asked 26 of my beautiful LA fans to meet at a private location and then get on a bus to come meet me at the studio where i got to play the whole album for them,” she continued. “they were gracious enough to let me take their phones so they were totally present and respectful and amazing and it was genuinely one of my favorite nights in such a long time!”
The Grammy winner also shared a few pictures from the event, including a group photo of herself and the fans smiling at the camera as well as a snap of everyone dancing to the unreleased music. “The excitement i get to play this album top to bottom is really like no other record I’ve made,” Carpenter added in her caption.
The so-called playdate comes just two weeks ahead of the release of Man’s Best Friend, which will follow last year’s Billboard 200-topping Short n’ Sweet. Featuring 12 songs — including No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 hit “Manchild” — Carpenter’s seventh studio album drops Aug. 29.
But that’s not the only new music the Girl Meets World alum has in the works. As revealed by Taylor Swift on Wednesday (Aug. 13), the former Eras tourmates will be teaming up for a duet on the title track of Swift’s upcoming album, The Life of a Showgirl. Reacting to the announcement on Instagram Stories, Carpenter wrote, “i know someone who’s freaking out and it’s me.”
