Sabrina Carpenter deals with her hairy situation.
The 25-year-old pop star took to Instagram to confirm fan speculation that she wears a wig on stage while performing Short and sweet concert tour.
On Sunday, October 6, Carpenter made a bold move, reposting a video from Hacks star Megan Stalter in which the actress mocks all the discourse surrounding the pop star’s hairstyle. “Woman tells life partner about Sabrina Carpenter haircut,” she captioned the parody.
“Honey, honey, I can’t tell if she’s wearing a hair clip,” Stalter says in the clip, looking off camera. “No, I can’t tell if it’s a wig or a hair clip.”
She continued: “Because I thought, she’s so hot from concerts that she’s probably wearing a wig, but the bangs look so real so I thought maybe it was just a piece of hair.”

Another said: “I think she wears it but that’s ok! It protects her real hair from damage!”
