Sabrina Carpenter 'horrified' after Zane Lowe pulls out a guitar mid-interview

In a moment reminiscent of when Ryan Gosling pulled out a guitar on Margot Robbie in Barbie, Sabrina Carpenter faced her face own version of “every girls worst nightmare” in her latest interview.

We’ve all been there, enjoying the company of a man when he suddenly feels like the need to demonstrate just how thoughtful and creative he is by whipping out his... guitar.

Carpenter, who released her acclaimed new album Short ‘n Sweet on Friday, sat down for a chat with Zane Lowe, completely unaware that he was about to make things awkward.

“Oh no, what’s happening,” spluttered the nervous pop star as Lowe grabbed his guitar from under the desk.

“Are you going to serenade me? Are you going to sing at me?” she quizzed while appearing to grow increasingly nervous.

“I’m not going to sing at your, cooed Lowe while slow strumming a chord on repeat. “But I’m gonna talk about where things start...

Carpenter then pulled a bemused expression and muttered: “OK... while... singing...”

Appearing to try and draw some deep meaning from his actions, Lowe pulled a pensive expression while looking up at the ceiling and explained: “There’s a lot of ways to start an interview, and there’s a lot of ways to start a song.”

“Oh no... I’m going to cry,” replied Carpenter while nervously smiling.

Fans rushed to comment on the interview, and while many praised the chat overall and enjoyed Lowe’s well-thought-out questions, many couldn’t resist poking fun at the awkward opening.

“The fear in her eyes when that man pulls out a guitar is every girls worst nightmare,” laughed one fan.

“Omg, watch the scene in the Barbie movie where the Kens play guitar for Barbie and you’ll understand,” joked another.

A third commented that Carpenter made the moment watchable, remarking: “Yeah … its kind of a nightmare, but her reaction made it.”

Another added: “I cringe every time Zane does this!”
