Lip syncing on the Short n' Sweet Tour? Not under Sabrina Carpenter's supervision.

Sabrina Carpenter just denied lip-syncing accusations after TikTok videos of her analyzing her live shows went viral.

Fans of Sabrina Carpenter from day one will already know that Sabrina is a singer. Since her Disney Channel days, she has proven again and again what a great voice she has. Whether she's covering artists like Jazmine Sullivan and Ariana Grande or simply showcasing her vocal prowess on her own music, few artists can sing as well as Sabrina these days.

However, Sabrina has been repeatedly accused of lip-syncing on the Short n' Sweet Tour, and now she's clapping back.

Does Sabrina Carpenter sing live?

Watch Sabrina Carpenter open the Short n Sweet Tour

If you watch live streams from Sabrina Carpenter's Short n' Sweet Tour, you can hear her singing live throughout the concert. Not only does she deliver incredible notes, but she also adds unique live elements to every show. Like all pop stars, she uses a backing track for uptempo numbers, but still sings with it live.

Still, people don't stop analyzing Sabrina's shows. In a TikTok posted on Monday (September 30), someone asked if Sabrina ever sings live, and the user responded with a video of Sabrina performing her song “Please Please Please” with the caption: “Me Hate to say it, but 30% lip singing.” 30% backing track, 40% vocals.”

The video has since been viewed over three million times and caught the attention of Sabrina herself. Clapping back on TikTok, she commented: “I sing every show 100% live. Would you like to speak to my sound engineers?” And I oops!

In the comments, one fan wrote: “I would never go public again if she denounced me like that 😭.”

Another added: “I saw her live and she sang everything 100%.”

As if that wasn't enough, Sabrina sings a surprise cover every night on tour. I think we can all agree that Sabrina sings live.
