Salma Hayek and Sabrina Carpenter’s Playful Backstage Bond at London Concert

Salma Hayek showcased her admiration for Sabrina Carpenter.

On March 10, 2023, the 58-year-old actress posted behind-the-scenes moments from Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet Tour at the O2 Arena in London on Instagram. Backstage, both stars wore silky pastel pink jerseys. They featured "Short n’ Sweet" in bold red letters across their chests. The design included a kiss mark on the shoulder and a striped V-neck collar. The back displayed the number 69 along with their names.

In an engaging photo, Hayek leaned against Carpenter while they held fuzzy pink handcuffs. Carpenter playfully chose to "arrest" Hayek before singing her hit "Juno." Each show includes one audience member being handcuffed in fun. Notable stars previously "arrested" are Emma Bunton, Margaret Qualley, Jack Antonoff, Millie Bobby Brown, and Marcello Hernandez during his character’s appearance on Saturday Night Live.

"This is a must-have for me, Salma!" Carpenter mentioned while the camera focused on Hayek. "Wow, you are stunning. I love you heaps," she added. Carpenter exclaimed, "It’s wild to just meet you, but I feel we’re meant to connect," as she adjusted her long skirt to unveil a crystal-embellished mini from Ludovic de Saint Sernin.

As music started playing, Hayek took the handcuffs from Carpenter. "This one’s dedicated to my dear Salma!" Carpenter announced before captivating the audience with her performance.

Attending the show, Hayek wore a red-and-white striped tank top paired with a gold charm necklace. She also shared this memorable moment on Instagram.

"Thanks to @sabrinacarpenter for the fun evening and such an unforgettable performance!" she captioned her post. "We truly enjoyed ourselves 💖." Carpenter responded in the comments with, "I love you, my sweet Salma 💞😚."
