Outraged Sabrina Carpenter fans perplexed as they question ‘criminal’ ticket prices
Unless you've been living under a rock for the past few months, you'll know all about the absolute takeover that Sabrina Carpenter has had in the charts.
The 25-year-old former Disney Channel star, responsible for smash-hits like 'Please Please Please' and - of course - 'Espresso', has just released tickets for her upcoming Short n' Sweet tour set to kick off in March next year.
However, it seems Sabrina's fans are far from happy with the 'criminal' price-tag attached to the concert tickets.

Now, Sabs will begin the UK & Europe leg of the tour in Dublin (3 March) before heading to Birmingham a few days later (6 March) and then down south to London (8 March).
After hitting the capital city, the singer will head back up north to Glasgow (11 March) and then Manchester (13 March) before hopping across the English Channel to Paris (16 March).
Following the City of Love, Sabrina will play for crowds in Berlin (19 March) then Brussels (22 March) before rounding off the tour in goold ol' Amsterdam (23 March).
While tickets don't go on general sale until Friday (26 July), fans who had access to the presale were left beyond shocked, not just at the fierce competition to grab the best seats, but over the 'outrageous' cost.
Many rushed to social media to share their reactions to the ticket prices - some of which reportedly totalled almost £240.
One X user penned: "My sister just told me she’s spent £120 on Sabrina Carpenter tickets… I am looking for a normal world."
"Sorry but why are Sabrina Carpenter tickets costing £230 for nosebleeds, it’s a crime," slammed a second.
A third piped up: "These pop stars are getting cheeky because how is Sabrina Carpenter playing arenas with tickets upward of £100."
"I’m sorry but £200+ for Sabrina Carpenter tickets is outrageous," urged a fourth. "If you are a parent and you pay these sorts of prices for concert tickets, you need to teach your kids the word 'no'."
A fifth slammed: "I'm so sad because i've been a Sabrina Carpenter fan since 2016-2017 and I don't have tickets because they are so f**king expensive I will cry don't touch me."
Another pleaded: "Pls those Sabrina Carpenter tickets have just cost me an arm and a leg."
"Tickets last year were £25 how can anyone justify over £250??" echoed another, and a final X user added: "SORRY I had every intention of getting Sabrina Carpenter tickets today on o2 priority but the cost is WILD why are they hundreds of pounds????? She’s new ish???!???"
