Pop Singer Shocks Fans With Mid-Concert April Fool's Joke

Sabrina Carpenter has built a massive cultural moment during her Short N' Sweet tour—the anticipation of which some might liken to Taylor Swift's highly anticipated Surprise Song tradition—so when the moment came and went without any fanfare during Tuesday, April 1's show in Copenhagen, it got fans across the world talking.

While performing her hit song "Juno" each night on tour, there comes a point where Carpenter coyly asks the crowd, "Have you ever tried this one?" before striking an intimate pose at the end of the catwalk. However, on April Fool's day, the singer skipped the sensual moment and dove right into the chorus, shocking fans.

In videos uploaded to TikTok following the concert, the crowd could be heard screaming excitedly as she approached the edge of the stage—and then quickly falling silent when they realized what was happening.

"finally something i’ve tried," one fan joked in response, as another quipped, "she said 'have you ever tried celibacy?' 😂😂."

"She said juNO! 😭," another replied.

"That’s crazy, they changed the actual band score so there was no pause," someone else marveled over the effort that went into the prank.

While some folks were feeling disgruntled over the lack of a pose, with one suggesting "she did them dirty," many agreed that it was "SO FUNNY I WOULFNY [sic] EVEN BE MAD."

"Maybe the real juno position are the friends we made along the way," someone else joked.
