Sabrina Carpenter brought humor and star power to the final stop of her U.S. *Short n’ Sweet* tour in Los Angeles on Monday. During the show at the Kia Forum, Carpenter playfully teased her producer, Jack Antonoff, before making his wife, actress Margaret Qualley, her chosen "Juno girl."  

Throughout her tour, Carpenter has picked one audience member to handcuff while performing her sultry song, “Juno.” Initially, Antonoff appeared on the big screen as her pick, arms crossed, but Carpenter had a change of heart. "This is super awkward," she joked. "I’m so confident you can produce someone even hotter than you." She then gestured toward Qualley, who stepped into the frame.  

"Now *that*, ladies and gentlemen, is a hottie with substance," Carpenter quipped, referencing Qualley’s role in *The Substance*. "Whoever made you, God bless them. God bless their genetics." Carpenter even joked about their hypothetical relationship, saying, "I think Margaret and Sabrina are good names to be in a relationship together. Oh my God, my clothes just fell off—I was thinking about us!"  

The night wasn’t short on star power, with a celebrity-packed audience including Selena Gomez, Benny Blanco, Ben Platt, Finneas, Kylie Cantrall, Julia Michaels, Lance Bass, and Xóchitl Gomez. Previous shows in L.A. had seen appearances from Katy Perry, Carly Rae Jepsen, Hailey Bieber, Madison Beer, Kendall Jenner, and Marina.  

Carpenter has made a tradition of involving stars in her handcuff bit during her L.A. performances. Rachel Sennott was “arrested” on Night One, while Marcello Hernandez took the stage as his *SNL* character Domingo on Night Two. Friday’s show even featured a duet with Christina Aguilera.  

In addition to the antics, Carpenter debuted the trailer for her upcoming holiday special, *A Nonsense Christmas,* which will feature duets with Chappell Roan, Tyla, Shania Twain, and Kali Uchis, as well as appearances by Quinta Brunson, Cara Delevingne, and Jillian Bell.  

With her U.S. tour wrapped up, Carpenter will take her *Short n’ Sweet* tour to Europe in March, with stops in London, Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam, and Milan, supported by Rachel Chinouriri."
