Now she is venturing out on her own arena tour, and hasn't held back when comes to ticket prices.

In fact, the cost to go and see Sabrina has gone from £25 to a whopping £250, which is ten times more than last year.

One fan fumed: "£250 to sit in the nosebleeds to see Sabrina Carpenter at the o2 - an artist with two hit singles and two other moderate hits. Absolutely APPALLING!"

While another said: "SORRY I had every intention of getting Sabrina Carpenter tickets today on o2 priority but the cost is WILD why are they hundreds of pounds????? She’s new ish???!???"

This one vented: "Two tickets to see taylor swift at wembley cost less than one ticket to see Sabrina carpenter at the o2… sorry for banging on about this but i’m literally baffled, the cost of ticket prices is completely ridiculous."

The Espresso singer confirmed earlier this month that she’ll be heading across the pond in Spring 2025.

Announcing the news on social media, the star said: “Soooo excited to bring the Short n’ Sweet Tour to Europe & the UK!!”.

Sabrina also confirmed that Rachel Chinouriri will be joining her as the support act on the new run of dates.

The shows kick off with four gigs in cities around the UK and Ireland.

The first of which will be at the 3Arena in Dublin on March 3, and this will be followed up by shows in Birmingham, London and Manchester.

Meanwhile, despite finding fame as a child Disney star, with a role as loyal, good-girl teen Maya Hart on Girl Meets World in 2014, she’s firmly cementing her reputation as the new ‘bad girl of pop'.

A pop insider said: “Sabrina was always the golden girl when growing up and people still see her as this innocent little girl rather than a nearly 25-year-old woman, it’s like they don’t want her to change.

“She hates the perfect Disney image and all the connotations that come with it – just because she played a certain character back then, it does not mean that she’s anything like that in real life

“Being a child Disney star has its pros and cons but that’s not how she wants to be known as and this role in Skims is going to change everything.

S"he’s seen it happen to former Disney stars like Miley CyrusBritney Spears and Selena Gomez and how they struggled to shed their image and be taken seriously as a star in their own right.

"And everyone loves to see a good girl turn bad and the fallout from that – it’s the ultimate form of rebellion.

“It’s the perfect recipe to make a superstar as they already have such a big fan base that is growing with them and doing something controversial will bring more fans, attention and power.

“And people like Sabrina will also feel they have more to prove and show they’re not just a pretty little actress and actually have talent and personality - and she has that in buckets.”
