Who are Sabrina Carpenter’s parents? Age and all we know amid singer’s joke about Paul Simon song during SNL50 special

Sabrina Carpenter and Paul Simon kicked off SNL50: The Anniversary Special with their rendition of Simon & Garfunkel's song Homeward Bound, setting a memorable tone for the celebrations.

Simon wrote the song while he was one half of the legendary singing duo, Simon & Garfunkel, and the song first made an appearance on their hit 1966 album Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme.

As the Grammy-winning performers introduced each other before their performance, Simon pointed out that he had performed the same song with George Harrison back in 1976. This prompted Sabrina Carpenter to playfully remark that neither she nor her parents were born then.

This revelation has sparked curiosity among many fans. They want to know more about Sabrina Carpenter's parents.

It’s still there, but I don’t live in that house anymore.” adding that the studio was a place were she found comfort and could be herself.
