Since the year is officially halfway over, it's not too soon to guess who will be dubbed as this year's It Girl.
At the beginning of the year, I was skeptical that this had a remote chance of being anyone not named Taylor Swift. But at this point of the year, all signs are pointing to Sabrina.
To be clear, this isn't a diss against Taylor Swift, but was due to be someone different.
Do you agree that it is Sabrina or do you think it might be someone else?

Sabrina or Chappell, depending on how the back half of the year goes.

in terms of biggest fanbase / sheer cultural dominance ? it's still t-swizzle
in terms of hottest artist / most stock gained during 2024 ? it's chappel amongst the gays, sabrina amongst the general population

Sabrina, for sure. If she does numbers with her album and pulls off that arena tour, I don’t think anything is stopping her from taking the title. Also, she’s been at this for a decade now, so it’s not only hard earned but seemingly just her time.
ETA: Are we still calling Taylor an “It Girl?” I thought that was reserved for those rising into prominence. Taylor is in another league and I would think is way beyond being “It” for a moment. She’s on a whole different tier of stardom.

Sabrina seems inescapable now, so I’d say her. Chappell is a solid second place and has exploded in popularity over the past month. Like others said, we’ll see how the second half of the year plays out for a solid answer but these two are Top 2 atm.

I feel like Sabrina, Chappell and Charli are the moment right now. They all seem to be driving the discussion in one way or another.

Have people forgotten about Dua Lipa? Radical Optimism underperformed significantly compared to Future Nostalgia. 2020/21 was her peak, it's all downhill from here for Dua. |

It does make me wonder why it took so long for Sabrina to have a real breakout year. She's been making music for quite a while. It's especially unusual when you look at the trend for most other former Disney and Nickelodeon actresses.
- Miley had a very strong 2009, right after she became a star on Disney.
- Ariana broke out just a few years after her Nickelodeon career.
- Olivia didn't debut on Disney channel until AFTER Sabrina, yet she still hit her music fame 3 years earlier than Sabrina.
Not sure what took Sabrina so long. Especially considering that it's been nearly 10 years since she was on Disney. Based on the other examples I listed above, you would have thought her big breakout on the charts would have happened around 2019 or 2020. Sure, she had a few minor hits (around #20 peaking) between then and now, but no big hits. Especially no Top 5 hits. But now, she's taking every new single to #1. This change sort of came out of nowhere.
