One of Sabrina Carpenter’s backup performers dropped something other than an album.
Indeed, as the global superstar kicked off the 2026 Grammys with her song “Manchild,” she said the live dove that she pulled out during the performance pooped in her hand.
While dressed as an airline pilot, Sabrina danced around a faux baggage claim terminal alongside backup dancers dressed as all versions of a modern man, like a postage worker and a businessman. At one point, she reached into a magician’s hat and pulled a live bird out of it, which promptly flew away.
At the end of the musical number, Sabrina held the dove again as she sat on top of an airplane on stage.
In a Grammys TikTok video shared later that evening, the 26-year-old celebrated the performance with her team backstage and shouted, “It s–t on my hand!”
Of course, Sabrina kept it professional on stage and persevered for her second time on the Grammys stage. Last February, the 26-year-old—whose Short n’ Sweet album scored her her first two Grammy wins—had the audience in the (poop-free) palm of her hand while performing a medley of “Espresso” and “Please Please Please” complete with intentional gaffes like wardrobe malfunctions and set pieces falling apart.
