\n\tSabrina Carpenter<\/a> showed her support for the LGBTQ+ community in her performance of the Man\u2019s Best Friend<\/a> <\/em>song \u201cTears\u201d at the MTV Video Music Awards<\/a> on Sunday night. The song began with Carpenter emerging from a literal manhole to sing alongside dancers that included RuPaul\u2019s<\/em> Drag Race<\/em> stars Symone, Willam, Denali, Laganja Estranja, and Lexi Love, as well as ballroom star Honey Balenciaga.<\/p>\n \n\tAs Carpenter repeated the line, \u201cI get wet at the thought of you \u2026\u201d during the performance, tears literally dripped from the ceiling, completely soaking her (in case anyone in the audience thought Carpenter was too subtle with her lyrics). Some of the dancers, which also included two very ripped cops who joined Carpenter, carried protest signs with messages like, \u201cProtect Trans Rights,\u201d \u201cSupport Drag,\u201d and \u201cLove Each Other.\u201d It was a bold, political statement delivered in the way only Carpenter could.<\/p>\n
