Sabrina Carpenter Hits No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, But Just Misses in Canada

Sabrina Carpenter summer is almost here.

The Grammy-winning pop singer’s track “Manchild,” from her forthcoming album Man’s Best Friend, debuts at No.2 on the Canadian Hot 100 chart dated June 21. While it just misses the top spot held by Alex Warren's "Ordinary" in Canada, it debuts at No. 1 on the U.S. Hot 100, dethroning Warren.


Despite missing the top spot in its first week, "Manchild" is still a win for Carpenter in Canada. Last year, she peaked in the Top 10 with hits “Espresso” (No. 3), “Please, Please, Please” (No. 3) and “Taste” (No. 4) from her album, Short n’ Sweet — which hit No.1 on the Canadian Albums chart and remained there for nine weeks.

Produced by Carpenter and Jack Antonoff, “Manchild” earns the former her first No. 2 on the Canadian Hot 100. It marks her second No. 1 on the U.S. Hot 100, following last year’s one-week stint with “Please, Please, Please.”

This new entry isn’t the only song Carpenter has on the chart. “Taste” sits at No. 43, and “Busy Woman,” a Short n’ Sweet deluxe track, re-entered the chart at No. 78.

But Carpenter isn’t the only pop girlie rising on the charts.

TikTok creator turned popstar Addison Rae is entering the Canadian Albums chart, breaking the Top 10 at No.6 with her self-titled debut, Addison, released June 6.

Rae’s entry to the albums chart follows her track “Fame is a Gun,” which entered the Canadian Hot 100 last week at No. 77. Rising 18 spots, it peaks at No. 59.

Other pop artists have experienced rising moments on the chart this week, too. Lola Young’s tracks “Messy” and “One Thing” rises 8-9 and 54-68, respectively, while KATSEYE’s “Gnarly” moves up over 20 spots, 69-94. On a smaller scale, Gracie Abrams’ “That’s So True” rises 9-10, and Charli xcx’s “Party 4 U” moves up 46-47.

‘This Moment Must Serve as a Call to Action’: Riverfest Elora Speaks After Closing Due to Financial Strain

Last month, the Ontario music festival called it quits after 15 years. Now, they’re asking the nation to pour into the country’s live music scene.

Riverfest Elora is calling on Canadians to support the local live music scene.

Today (Dec. 19), organizers for the Ontario music festival submitted a call to action through Elora's local newspaper, Elora Fergus Today. It’s addressed to Canadian businesses, citizens and policymakers, advising them to invest in live music before more local organizations continue to dissipate.
