Madelyn Cline’s Sweaty Reaction to Sabrina Carpenter’s VMA Nomination
Fame, friendship, and a splashy music video—that’s the trifecta that Madelyn Cline is currently enjoying. As a prominent figure in the Sabrina Carpenter Cinematic Universe, Cline is deeply woven into the fabric of pop culture, but recently she discovered a piece of news that sent her into a delightful spin: the video for “House Tour” is a nominee for the 2026 MTV VMA.
This exciting fact wasn’t revealed through a formal announcement, but rather in a charming, live moment. Cline learned about the nomination while appearing on a Today episode, when host Carson Daly brought up her cameo in Carpenter’s cheeky and sultry video. The revelation caught Cline completely off guard, leading to a wonderfully lighthearted reaction as she processed the news.
For Cline, the opportunity to join the video was an immediate yes. She and Sabrina Carpenter have been friends for a long time, and Cline is a devoted fan, making the experience feel like a true celebration of shared enjoyment. “No questions asked,” Cline shared, emphasizing the bond she felt. “We’ve been friends for a long time. … I’ve been a fan of Sabrina’s for a long time too.”
The project itself was a dazzling spectacle. The video for “House Tour” features Cline alongside Carpenter and Margaret Qualley, who co-directed and co-starred. The video itself is a fever dream tailored for the Sabrina-verse, showcasing the trio rolling up to a mansion and wreaking joyous havoc.
The production was quite elaborate, filmed entirely on film over two full days, adding to the scope of the celebration. And the success of the song behind the video only added to the momentum. “House Tour” achieved a solid run on the Billboard Hot 100, charting at No. 27 following the release of Carpenter’s Man’s Best Friend album, and continued its ascent into 2026.
Beyond the visual feast, the team also earned recognition. Carpenter and Qualley received a nomination for best direction, further cementing the video’s status. For Cline, being part of this celebrated project was an incredible achievement. She recently called being part of the Sabrina-verse one of her favorite accomplishments, expressing her deep affection for the star.
The entire experience, from the filming to the accolades, proves that sometimes the best moments in life are those shared with the people you love, making the journey to fame even more fun.
