Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter’s friendship has won over their fans in recent years. From being the “Lover” hitmaker’s number one fan to becoming one of her close friends, Carpenter’s endearing bond with her has attracted the attention of fans.
So, here are all the details fans need to know regarding the two pop sensations’ friendship history.
Are Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter friends?
In 2009, the “Please Please Please” first singer showcased her admiration for Taylor Swift. She shared a cover of the latter’s song “Picture to Burn” online.
An almost 10-year-old Sabrina Carpenter posted the YouTube video on her official channel, which is still available there for fans. After a decade, she joined the music scene as Swift’s contemporary. While speaking to Apple Music in 2020, Carpenter expressed how the latter is an inspiration for her music.
Following the release of Swift’s “Red (Taylor’s version)” in 2021, she even gifted Carpenter a care package, which she signed as her “friend.” However, the ultimate fan moment arrived for the “Espresso” singer when she spent time with Taylor Swift at the MTV VMAs afterparty in August 2022.

After meeting Swift countless times at award afterparties, in May 2023, Sabrina Carpenter attended her Eras tour. Just a few months after that, she even appeared in the “Fortnight” singer’s Mexico tour as the opening act.
Moreover, in October 2023, Carpenter was invited by Swift to attend her boyfriend and KC Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce’s game. The duo also spent some quality time in February 2024, as they had a dinner date first and then went to the Sydney zoo. (via People)
Swift then welcomed Carpenter as her opening act with a sweet message onstage during her Eras tour, earning fans’ praise. She referred to the latter as “incredibly talented, wonderful, gorgeous, hilarious, genius.”
However, speculations of a beef between the two arose in June 2024. This was after Sabrina Carpenter was part of the SKIMS campaign, given Taylor Swift’s conflict with Kim Kardashian. However, Carpenter immediately shut down the rumors. She told Rolling Stone, “I’ve been very, very communicative with her about that situation, and I just love her so much and support her till the end.”
