However, the 25-year-old singer-actress said in a new interview that “powerful people” were initially hesitant to release the song.
“I was completely alone in wanting to release ‘Espresso,’” Carpenter told Variety. “Not necessarily from my immediate team. But from the ‘powers that be.’”
“There was a lot of question about whether it was reasonable. But in the end they believed in me, and I’m so glad I believed in myself at that time,” she added.

A certified smash hit, “Espresso” spent a month at No. 1 in the UK earlier this year, making it the fourth biggest song of the year in the country, according to the Official Charts Company.
