Sabrina Carpenter and Seth Meyers Celebrate the Holidays with Day Drinking

On December 16, 2023, Sabrina Carpenter joined Seth Meyers for a holiday-themed edition of the popular "Day Drinking" segment on NBC's *Late Night with Seth Meyers*. The episode was filmed at The Ripple Room in New York City, where the duo engaged in a series of drinking games and humorous challenges, starting with chugging beer instead of the expected espresso martinis.

The segment featured a variety of entertaining activities, including a truth-or-drink challenge called "Spill the Tea." Carpenter opted to drink rather than reveal who inspired her song "Manchild," while Meyers refrained from disclosing which of Carpenter's sketches on *Saturday Night Live* he considered the worst. The pair donned red-light therapy masks during their antics, adding a layer of absurdity to the proceedings.

One notable moment occurred when Carpenter shared her first acting role as a victim on *Law & Order: Special Victims Unit* at age 12. Meyers awkwardly inquired about the specifics of her role, prompting laughter as Carpenter quipped, “Of what? I was 12. Yeah, a victim, Seth.” This exchange highlighted the playful rapport between the two.

Carpenter concluded the segment by decorating Meyers like a Christmas tree while singing carols.
