Have ‘A Nonsense Christmas’: How to Watch Sabrina Carpenter’s Holiday Special

It’s not Christmas without Sabrina Carpenter. The pop star has had a whirlwind year, starting when her song Espresso became the unofficial song of the summer. She guest starred on Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour and went on her own tour named after her newest album, Short n’ Sweet, which took her across the US. Now she’s closing out the year with her own Netflix Christmas special.

We don’t know exactly which songs Carpenter will perform in the special, but it will likely be a mix of her own holiday songs and other classics. The Netflix program is named after a merry remix of her popular hit Nonsense, which is from a six-song Christmas album she released in 2023. 

Netflix has confirmed that a slew of guest stars will be joining Carpenter. There will be duets with Hot to Go! singer Chappell Roan, Tyla, Shania Twain and Kali Uchis. Other celebrities, including Quinta Brunson and Cara Delevingne, are also set to appear. Here’s everything you need to know to join Carpenter in a not-so-silent night.
