Sorry Miss Jackson? Nope, the modern update is now “apologies Mr. Carpenter,” thanks to Usher’s newest confessions.
When Sabrina Carpenter shared a Met Gala photo dump on Instagram on Wednesday, there were a couple of hilarious Easter eggs (er, cherries?) in there that led to Usher apologizing to the “Espresso” singer’s father for feeding her a cherry.
In the second to last photo she shared, Usher feeds her a cherry while she sticks out her tongue. The “Yeah” singer is smiling big in the moment.
Sabrina then shared a screenshot of her text conversation with her father David Carpenter, named “Dadda” in her contacts, where he sent her the photo of her and Usher that he saw on Twitter. “? Weird,” David told her.

The Met Gala took place on Monday with the theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.”
Usher performed, as well as Stevie Wonder, as a surprise, which is when the cherry moment occurred (Usher feeds audience members cherries often during his shows). Both Usher and Wonder delivered medleys of their biggest hits.

Sabrina wore a pants-less Louis Vuitton outfit at the 2025 Met Gala, which she previously revealed was because of Pharrell Williams. “He was like, ‘You’re quite short, so no pants for you,'” she said. “So here we are. Here we are.”
