Carpenter, eye-catching in a glittery fringe dress, couldn\u2019t help but exude a certain edginess onstage at the Opry House, even if the 26-year-old left out some of her favorite swear words. At times, she walked right up to the line, teasing those F bombs with a coy glance before changing the line to something family-friendly, like \u201cthe others\u201d in \u201cPlease Please Please.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sabrina Carpenter - Manchild | Opry 100\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6sLAuggqg-A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tFor her performance of \u201cSlim Pickins,\u201d however, off last year\u2019s <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-album-reviews\/sabrina-carpenter-short-n-sweet-review-1235087704\/\">Short n\u2019 Sweet<\/a><\/em>, she went all in, delivering the line \u201call the douchebags in my phone\u201d with gusto.
