    Sabrina Carpenter didn’t let a little on-stage nonsense stop her.

    The 25-year-old was dancing on a platform during her headlining set at San Francisco’s Outside Lands Music Festival on Saturday when she suddenly screamed and jumped forward after a stray firework came close to hitting her. The clip has gone viral .

    Carpenter then looked back as the pyrotechnics continued to go off. She shrieked again before covering her mouth and escaping the stray sparks on the Golden Gate Park stage.

    After finishing her set, Carpenter addressed the audience, saying, “Thank you, Outside Lands. I’m going to go to bed. Bye!”

    Elsewhere during her performance, the “Please Please Please” artist brought out Kacey Musgraves for a surprise duet of Nancy Sinatra’s “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’.”

    Carpenter also teased her upcoming record, “Short n’ Sweet,” by having a man come on stage with a scroll during her “Nonsense” outro.

    “Soon cometh my album so exciting. My heart doth pound beneath my chest, so mighty,” she sang, per a social media clip. “Outside Lands, it’s like thou art inside me.”
