AceShowbiz - Sabrina Carpenter transformed into a Halloween spectacle at her Dallas concert on October 30, showcasing not one but three distinct costumes. In addition to donning the iconic Playboy Bunny outfit and Tinker Bell's whimsical wings, she stunned the crowd by embodying Olivia Newton-John's beloved character Sandy Olsson from the classic film "Grease".
Clad in Sandy's signature black catsuit and voluminous blonde curls, Carpenter channeled the 1978 film icon during a "Spin the Bottle" game that determined her cover song choice. Fatefully, the bottle landed on Newton-John's "Hopelessly Devoted to You", prompting Carpenter to deliver a heartfelt rendition that sent the American Airlines Center into a frenzy.
"But now there's nowhere to hide/ Since you pushed my love aside/ I'm out of my head/ Hopelessly devoted to you," she belted, her voice soaring effortlessly over the crowd's enthusiastic singalong.
This wasn't Carpenter's first time honoring the "Grease" ballad, as she frequently performed it during her opening act on Taylor Swift's "Eras Tour". The song, originally sung by Newton-John alongside John Travolta, is a timeless classic that earned an Oscar nomination for best original song and helped the film's soundtrack dominate the Billboard 200 for 12 weeks.
Carpenter's pre-Halloween extravaganza also featured her as Pinocchio's mischievous Tinkerbell and a sultry Playboy Bunny, showcasing her versatility and love for all things festive. Her Halloween wardrobe has consistently been a source of entertainment for her fans, with previous years featuring costumes inspired by Cher from "Clueless", Britney Spears' denim ensemble, and characters from "A Cinderella Story" and other classic films.
Carpenter's "Short n' Sweet" tour continues on November 1 in Denver, and tickets for her upcoming U.K. and European leg, featuring special guest Rachel Chinouriri, are now available.
