Sabrina Carpenter<\/a><\/strong> is showing no signs of slowing down. Fresh off a string of sold-out shows, viral moments, and the success of her new album “Man\u2019s Best Friend,” the 26-year-old pop star is cementing herself as one of the defining voices of her generation. Known for her witty improvised riffs during live performances, bold fashion choices, and unapologetic authenticity, Carpenter continues to connect with fans in ways that feel both playful and deeply personal.<\/p>\n MBS\/MEGA<\/p>\n Now, the singer and actress is opening up in a new feature for the October 2025 cover of Vogue Italia<\/a>, where she got candid about her whirlwind life on the road and shared a brutally honest take on how men view her. \u201cI think men are a fun species to watch,\u201d Carpenter told Vogue Italia. \u201cI feel adored by some\u2026 ridiculed by others.\u201d<\/p>\n While Carpenter may joke about feeling both adored and ridiculed by men, she admits there\u2019s one area where her outlook softens: celebrating the arrival of baby boys. \u201cWhen one of my female friends announces that she\u2019s having a son, I just rejoice for that young boy,\u201d she shared. \u201cBecause I know he\u2019s going to be raised right.\u201d<\/p>\n Still, Carpenter couldn\u2019t resist adding a playful jab, pointing out the challenges that come with growing into manhood. \u201cCorrect me if I\u2019m wrong, I\u2019ve only been on Earth for 26 years, but I feel like we\u2019ve always kind of had to train them,” the singer continued. “Unfortunately, it\u2019s a tale as old as time.\u201d<\/p>\n Mirrorpix \/ MEGA<\/p>\n Speaking from her Los Angeles home while preparing for yet another flight, she laughed about her non-stop lifestyle. \u201cI\u2019m always busy packing and unpacking. It\u2019s pretty much all I do.\u201d Despite the chaos, Carpenter says the constant movement fuels her creativity, enabling her to shine on the world’s biggest stages, from opening for Taylor Swift<\/a><\/strong>\u2019s “Eras Tour” to headlining her own concerts and festivals, such as Lollapalooza.<\/p>\n This fall, she\u2019s stepping onto the stage under her own name, something she relishes even more. \u201cIt means I get to perform with the lights off, which is much more fun, because I like playing in the dark,” she admitted.<\/p>\n ZUMAPRESS.com \/ MEGA<\/p>\n Carpenter knows her music often sparks speculation, especially when it comes to rumored muses like Barry Keoghan<\/a><\/strong>, who fans believe inspired tracks such as \u201cManchild\u201d and \u201cBed Chem.\u201d But the singer insists she\u2019s not fazed by men who shy away from dating her out of fear of becoming the subject of her lyrics.<\/p>\nSabrina Carpenter Gets Candid On Fame, Fashion, And The ‘Fun Species’ Known As Men<\/h2>\n
