At the 2024 Governors Ball in New York City, Sabrina Carpenter once again ad-libbed the outro for her song "Nonsense," this time using the altered lyrics to celebrate Pride Month.

The singer, who just announced her sixth studio album Short n' Sweet...

... also released her new single "Please Please Please” with a music video featuring Barry Keoghan, no less.

WARNING: NSFW language.

Carpenter debuted the new song at the Governors Ball on June 8 in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, much to fans' delight, but her most celebrated moment was her Pride Month shoutout at the end of "Nonsense."

In true Sabina Carpenter fashion, the singer changed the outro from her 2022 hit to say:

“Do I text him back? / It’s such a tough call."
“That won’t fit inside me / Bro, I’m dumb small,"
"People who hate Pride can suck my Gov Balls.”

Governors Ball posted the video to their Instagram with the caption:

"happy pride 😘"

Viewers of the performance applauded Carpenter's new ending and joined the celebration.

Carpenter took to Instagram, as well, expressing her gratitude for both the opportunity to perform at the Governors Ball and for her fans.

"Gov ball that was one of the biggest loudest most playful crowds I’ve ever seen."
"so grateful for each and every one of you!!!!"
"Thanks for having us!"

Thanks for being a fierce ally, Sabrina!

Short n' Sweet is set for an August 23 release.

Jesse Watters Has Complete Meltdown After Republicans Lose The Midterms—And We're Grabbing The Popcorn

Fox News host Jesse Watters expressed sheer disbelief after Democrats swept midterm election races to win back both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate in a clear repudiation of the Trump administration.

A Trump advisor told CNN that the election results were "essentially too big to rig." President Donald Trump has said he accepts the results and even acknowledged that his widely unpopular war in Iran played a significant role in pushing Americans to vote for Democrats. Affordability concerns, chief among them the price of gas, also contributed to the backlash Republicans experienced at the voting booth.

97-Year-Old Man Goes Viral After Making 'Dramatic Exit' By Passing Away At His Own Birthday Party

Most people turning 97 might settle for cake, a few birthday cards, and an early bedtime. Not Vito. This man wanted a Halloween birthday rager, and apparently, he wasn't taking requests for a quieter evening.
