Sabrina Carpenter 'flies in medical medical team' during BST Hyde Park
Sabrina Carpenter appears to have thought of everything when it comes to her BST Hyde Park performances, with the US singer flying in her own private medical team and an ambulance for the weekend.
The star, 26, came prepared with the team to ensure she was in tip-top shape for the energy-sapping shows on Saturday and Sunday night, and even had her own ambulance as backstage was locked down.
Security was also 'unprecedented' backstage, say insiders, and 'unlike anything they've ever seen before", for the over 65,000 strong crowd.
The show went down a storm with Sabrina saying she has been constantly checking the weather app as she was worried about British weather.
'The first thing I did was look at the weather app because you guys are shady here,' said the Pennsylvania-born singer, who followed on from Noah Kahan's performance on Friday night, which featured a special appearance from Lewis Capaldi.
And as the crowd sang along to a string of hits from her recent single releases, Sabrina couldn't help but swoon over the crystal clear vocals. 'Hearing you sing in these accents is just ….', she laughed.

Rounding off the show with what's arguably the hit that catapulted her to household name-status, Sabrina belted out Espresso with the help of the lively crowd.
Sharing pictures from Saturday night in London to Instagram, Sabrina - who wore an embellished red romper with her name emblazoned on the front at one point in the show - wrote: "NIGHT 1 HYDE PARK magical and unbelievable. 65,000 of your beautiful faces and we get the privilege of doing it all again tonight!! See you soon i love you".
Sabrina is set to release her seventh studio album, titled Man's Best Friend, in late August, following the monumental success of her previous 2024 effort, Short 'n' Sweet.
Talking of the new release online, Sabrina wrote to Instagram recently: "I wrote Manchild on a random Tuesday with Amy and Jack not too long after finishing Short n' Sweet and it ended up being the best random Tuesday of my life.
"Not only was it so fun to write, but this song became something I can look back on that will score the mental montage to the very confusing and fun young adult years of life. It sounds like the song's embodiment of a loving eye roll and it feels like a never-ending road trip in the summer."
She concluded, "Hence why I wanted to give it to you now- so you can stick your head out the car window and scream it all summer long! thank you always and forever for listening and thank you men for testing me!"

The 26-year-old singer took the Great Oak Stage at the London music festival on Sunday night without seemingly breaking a sweat.

Opening her set with Busy Woman, Carpenter went through her biggest hits from her most recent Short n' Sweet album including Taste, Bed Chem and Please Please Please. Midway through the concert, she asked the crowds to howl with her before introducing the 'legendary' pop rock band Duran Duran to the stage, where lead singer, Simon Le Bon, and bass guitarist John Taylor emerged to join Carpenter to sing Hungry Like The Wolf.

She later 'arrested' The Bear star Ayo Edebiri and singer Clairo, in what has become a trademark introduction to her song Juno with screens showing alarms and the caption, 'You're under arrest for being too hot'. Advertisement Throughout the set, she also performed track favourites from her 2022 album, Emails I Can't Send, which included Feather, Because I Liked A Boy and her viral hit Nonsense. From dancing on a makeshift balcony to serenading a sea of flashing lights, Carpenter closed her sold-out show by serving up her hit song Espresso, complimented with a firework display. The performance comes after the singer announced she will be releasing a new album called Man's Best Friend later in the summer. Sabrina Carpenter during the BBC Radio1 Big Weekend (Ian West/PA) Carpenter gained prominence starring on the Disney Channel series Girl Meets World as a teenager and released her debut album Eyes Wide Open in 2015 on Hollywood Records.

Earlier this year, she received the global success award at the 2025 Brit Awards in recognition of her breakthrough year in 2024, in which she became the first woman to simultaneously occupy the top three spots of the UK singles chart with Taste, Please Please Please, and Espresso.

Fact check: Social media channel of migrant's journey posts AI-generated videos
Evaluation The videos on the channel appear to be AI-generated. The facts On four days between June 9 and June 13, the channel 'migrantvlog' uploaded 22 videos to the social media platform. At the time of writing, the most-watched video had around 374,000 views on the platform. In total, five of the videos had more than 100,000 views. The channel had 1,647 followers and more than 11,000 likes. Comments on the videos show some viewers realised that the videos are AI-generated. However, others seemed to be reacting as if they are real. What evidence is there that the videos are AI? There is clear evidence of AI generation in many of the videos. Most tellingly, several of the videos have watermarks for Veo – an AI video generation tool. One video posted with the caption '5 star meorot we going' includes a section at around seven seconds where a man on the right of the frame seems to momentarily lose his arm. This video is one of several with a Veo watermark. The watermark appears in the bottom-right corner, where it might be obscured from some viewers by TikTok's display icons. Between that video and another posted later the same day, the main protagonist's voice seems to change. The second video includes scrambled text on the front of a building, a hallmark sign of AI. At around five seconds, a man appears to pull a large camera out of his crotch, while at seven seconds a person sat in a chair appears to become translucent. Another video shows a protest with men waving flags. The man behind the right shoulder of the person filming moves his arm in an unnatural way and the flag in his hand seems to appear and disappear. A video shows a man running with a group while holding a burning Union flag. The flag is on fire, however the material does not appear to be blackening, and the way the men behind the protagonist interact seems almost ghost-like as they move through each other in unnatural ways. In a video in which the man says 'thank you British taxpayers for feeding us this good food', a fork can be seen appearing seemingly out of thin air in the background while a man appears to pass a plate through his own hand.
