Sabrina Carpenter made headlines during her recent performance on *Saturday Night Live*, which aired on October 18, 2023. The 26-year-old singer showcased her talent by performing her new single, “Nobody’s Son.” What caught viewers’ attention, however, was the uncensored use of explicit language in her song.
During the live broadcast, Carpenter sang the line, “He sure f–ked me up,” not once, but twice. Surprisingly, this explicit phrase was not bleeped out or muted during the East Coast airing. While some viewers on the East Coast were treated to the unfiltered version, reports from *Variety* indicate that the offending words were silenced by the time the performance reached West Coast audiences.
This episode marked not only Carpenter’s musical performance but also her debut as the host of *Saturday Night Live*. Her hosting duties were complemented by a comedic sketch alongside cast member Marcello Hernandez, reviving the popular Domingo segment that fans have come to love over the years.
Carpenter’s performance has sparked discussions regarding live television standards and censorship, particularly in relation to how different regions handle content. The mix of music and humor showcased during the episode highlights Carpenter’s versatility as both a performer and host.
For viewers interested in catching the full performance, clips are available online, although some have since been edited to mute the explicit language. Carpenter’s appearance continues to resonate with fans, adding to her growing reputation in both the music and entertainment industry.
