'Sabrina Carpenter gave fans and artists alike advice when it comes to writing songs—more specifically, when it comes to writing hits. The popstar, 26, accepted the ‘Hitmaker of the Year’ award on Saturday, December 6th.

Her advice included much of what you would imagine a songwriter would say, but she ended with an unexpected dig at men. “Write what speaks to you, write something that only you can write. Write the music you want to listen to yourself. Add the weird chord progression and key change, and call men stupid in as many ways as you can.”'
