Host Stephen Colbert brought out the martini to toast her 6 Grammy nominations, including one for Best New Artist.
Carpenter revealed the upcoming Grammys ceremony will be the first she's attending, since she didn't want to go when she wasn't nominated.
'I was told myself I never wanted to go until I was nominated. I didn't think it would be for all those categories, which is really special,' Carpenter said.
When asked if she's taking the time to enjoy her success, she said, 'When you're young, you sort of vibe it out. I don't know how to describe it.'
'When it's happening, I probably in five years will look back onthis moment be like wow, so much happened at once. It's hard to process it in the moment,' she said.
'I feel so lucky. Singing is all I've ever wanted to do. Writing songs is my favorite thing in the world, so the fact that I could do it and people listen is sentimental but it's a gift so I'm very grateful,' she said to applause.
When Colbert asked if it was true that The Beatles inspired her to write her own songs, she said when she was young she was 'mesmerized' by their 1969 song Rocky Raccoon.
'I was so mesmerized by that song and the songwriting of it that I fell in love with Paul Mccartney. I was convinced that was my husband, my future husband. He was qute old. I was so young I didn't understand that he was much older than me because I was looking at all these photos. No, he's young prettily like ten years older than me. I didn't understand math,' she said.

December 2024, though an insider said they were just on a 'break.'
Carpenter and Keoghan started dating in December 2023, though they split in December 2024, though an insider said they were just on a 'break.'
Then just days later reports surfaced that Keoghan may have been cheating on Carpenter with an OnlyFans star Breckie Hill.
Keoghan would later deactivate his Instagram entirely and post a lengthy statement on his verified X account, saying his name was 'dragged across the internet.'
He said he deactivated his Instagram because he could no longer, 'let this stuff distract from my family and work,' though he didn't confirm or deny the cheating allegations.
Breckie Hill, however, did issue a statement, which read, 'To put it simply for you all, no, I did not get with Barry. I have never even encountered this man in my life. The only time I've seen him is on my TV screen from watching Saltburn.'
