Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Short n’ Sweet’ Certified Platinum

There’s nothing short about the numbers Sabrina Carpenter is pulling on her new album, but they sure are sweet.

As of Friday (Sept. 27), the 25-year-old pop star’s sixth studio LP Short n’ Sweet has already been certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. That means the 12-track project has moved more than 1 million units, becoming her first album to earn the certification, according to RIAA’s records.

Carpenter previously reached Platinum status with her Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit “Please Please Please” as well as fellow Short n’ Sweet single “Espresso.” Her fifth album, Emails I Can’t Send, was certified Gold in March this year.

The news comes about a month after Short n’ Sweet debuted atop the Billboard 200, where it reigned at No. 1 for three consecutive weeks. Bolstered by the runaway successes of “Please Please Please,” “Espresso” and “Taste,” the LP is the Girl Meets World alum’s first No. 1 album and sold 362,000 equivalent album units in its first week.

“can’t express my gratitude. My first #1 album!!!!” she wrote on Instagram Sept. 3. “thank you for listening to short n’ sweet. thank you for believing in me all these years! couldn’t do any of this without you :’) this feels really special. love you all.”

Carpenter is currently touring in support of the album, having launched the North American leg of her first-ever arena trek in Columbus, Ohio Sept. 23. The “Feather” artist will travel through the U.S. and Canada for the next two months before embarking on a European stretch in March 2025.
