Sabrina Carpenter is part of the 2024 TIME100 Next list, and Christina Aguilera contributed to the fellow singer with encouraging words. The edition, which honors rising stars, had Sabrina on one of their three covers, wearing a red silk bodysuit with an oversized bow and her signature blonde hairstyle. According to People, Carpenter will deviate from her Short 'n' Sweet tour route to perform at the TIME100 Next event on Wednesday, October 9, in New York City.
Recently, Aguilera surprised the world after releasing a refreshed version of "What A Girl Wants" featuring Sabrina Carpenter. Now, the Latina singer has taken the "Espresso" interpreter under her wing and advises music lovers to "never underestimate the mighty power" behind Sabrina's immeasurable talent.

Aguilera and Carpenter have similar starts at Disney; therefore, her journey has helped her understand "what it takes to maintain clarity while delivering within the demands of this business."
"Sabrina handles the task with seemingly effortless ease and charisma while promoting, performing, and handling press with a smile and her signature coy charm," Aguilera wrote.

Sabrina Carpenter and Christina Aguilera's collaboration
Sabrina Carpenter collaborated with Christina Aguilera in a special live studio episode of Spotify Anniversaries. Christina is celebrating the 25th anniversary of her successful debut album, so she chose MGK and Sabrina to participate in the event.
"I wanted to celebrate the 25th anniversary of my debut album in a way that brings together the past and present," the singer told Rolling Stone. "I've always enjoyed reimagining my songs with different styles and audiences, as well as playing with sounds and arrangements that showcase how all music can be timeless."
“Recording this project with Spotify was both magical and nostalgic, resurfacing some of my sweetest career memories,” she told the publication. “I laughed, I cried, I reconnected with old friends, and I made some very special new ones," she continued. “I hope this anniversary gift is just as special for you to watch, as it was for me to make,” she said.
