PHILADELPHIA — Two Philly-region short queens are working together.
When Sabrina Carpenter debuted a trailer for her upcoming “A Nonsense Christmas” Netflix special Monday, it featured a cameo from “Abbott Elementary’s” Quinta Brunson.
Brunson can be seen participating in a sketch with Carpenter, marking a meeting of two regional stars — Brunson is famously from West Philadelphia, while Carpenter grew up in nearby Quakertown.
The trailer is a quick, spoiler-free flash from scene to scene. But in one clip that appears to be a take on the Christmas ghosts of past, present and future, Brunson compliments Carpenter’s signature bangs. Carpenter quips that she got them after a guy “ghosted her.”
The Netflix special, which premieres Dec. 6, looks to be a holiday variety hour — similar to The Kacey Musgraves Christmas Show, which mixed sketches and musical performances with an array of celebrities — but for a slightly younger crowd. Carpenter is 25, and her career has capitalized on being young, hot and playfully sexual.
