Pop sensation Sabrina Carpenter opened up about her childhood crushes in a revealing chat with W Magazine. The “Espresso” singer confessed that her bedroom walls were adorned not with the typical heartthrobs but with the leading pop girlies—Miley Cyrus, Taylor Swift, and Ariana Grande.
Surprisingly, Sabrina Carpenter didn’t just admire these pop girls from afar; she eventually joined them on the world’s biggest stages.

Her journey from a Disney Channel teen idol on “Girl Meets World” to a pop main face is similar to that of her once-poster icon, Miley Cyrus.
