Pop star Sabrina Carpenter playfully 'arrested' sisters Elle and Dakota Fanning during her Short n’ Sweet Tour show at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. The lighthearted moment occurred as part of her performance of 'Juno,' where she singles out attractive fans or celebrities from the crowd. The actresses received fluffy pink handcuffs after enthusiastically agreeing to the staged 'jail.'
Event Details
On the second night of her Los Angeles residency at Crypto.com Arena on November 18, 2025, Sabrina Carpenter spotted Elle and Dakota Fanning in the audience during her performance of 'Juno.' Dressed in lingerie, the sisters caught the singer's eye, prompting Carpenter to declare, “You guys, I have to arrest you. You’re too beautiful. Shit!” She continued with a nod to her lyrics, saying, “It’s like, one of you is cute, but two though, I mean, damn, I’ve never had sisters. There’s a first time for everything.” After asking, “Are you guys OK with jail?” and receiving nods, Carpenter handed them two pairs of fluffy pink handcuffs, delighting the cheering crowd.
This 'arrest' is a recurring bit in Carpenter's shows, where she 'apprehends' audience members for being too attractive. Previous celebrities 'arrested' include Nicole Kidman, whom Carpenter referenced with nods to her AMC ad, Practical Magic, and 2024 film Babygirl; Ayo Edebiri; Anne Hathaway; Millie Bobby Brown; Gigi Hadid; and K-pop group TWICE.
