Sabrina Carpenter is the hottest music star this summer:

After storming the HIT 100-Charts with “Espresso” in June – and still being in the Top 5 with “Espresso” this week – she got her next hit in the Billboard charts with “Please, Please, Please”.

That makes her the second star after Taylor Swift to have two songs on top of the Billboard TOP 100 in the same week.

After her first two songs “Nonsense” and “Feather” in February and April of this year, the rise of Sabrina Carpenter started in June when her Hit “Espresso” – the most played song on US radios – exploded after her appearance in “Saturday Night Live” and her live show at Coachella.

Next week, the Sabrina-Carpenter-Fever will even get hotter, when she releases her first album, “Short N’Sweet”. After that, she starts her first North American arena tour in autumn, which sold out in every market within two weeks after its late-June announcement.
