Sabrina Carpenter Opens Up About the “Drivers License” Era and How It Shaped Her
It’s been over four years since Olivia Rodrigo’s breakout hit “Drivers License” became a cultural phenomenon—and with it, sparked waves of speculation about a real-life love triangle involving Joshua Bassett and Sabrina Carpenter.
While the track’s lyrics—especially “you’re probably with that blonde girl”—fueled intense fan theories, Sabrina is now looking back with clarity, humor, and resilience.
In a candid new interview with Rolling Stone, Sabrina addressed the long-running speculation with a deadpan response:
“I don’t think about it, ever.”
She also admitted she never tried to actively change the public narrative around her during that time, quipping, “I’ve tried being brunette, and it didn’t look good on me, so this is what it is.”
Finding Strength Through Scrutiny
Despite the media buzz and public scrutiny, Sabrina didn’t let the drama derail her.
“All I knew was that it wasn’t going to stop me from doing what I loved, ever,” she explained.
Reflecting on that period, she shared a deeper takeaway about self-trust and growth:
“What that era taught me was to just trust myself… relationships are put into your life for a reason. You might not see that in the moment, but you see it later.”
From Side Note to Spotlight
Since the “Drivers License” saga, Sabrina has risen as a major pop star in her own right, headlining shows and earning acclaim for her performances and personal style.
Her comments signal a matured perspective—one shaped by staying true to herself amid chaos and public curiosity.https://www.comingsoon.net/guides/news/1988798-sabrina-carpenter-olivia-rodrigo-drivers-license-drama
