Sabrina Carpenter Talks About Getting Support from "Gracious" Taylor Swift
Want proof that manifesting is fully real? Look no further than Sabrina Carpenter, who went from covering Taylor Swift songs as a kid on YouTube to tweeting about how much she wanted to meet her to literally opening for the Eras Tour. *laugh-cries in jealousy*
Taylor and Sabrina’s friendship is honestly more of a long-lost sisters vibe (just ask Sabrina), and we’re breaking it down in a timeline—which is honestly kinda unexpectedly emotional, so get ready.

I feel so lucky to witness the magic that is you and this tour. There is truly no one like you and there never will be! I love you with all my heart and i will cherish this taybrina era (and all the eras) till the end of time 💞💞💞”
June 17, 2024
Sabrina gives an interview to Rolling Stone and gushes about Tay. But she also shuts down speculation that they had drama over Sabrina’s Skims campaign.
“As much as people want to believe you’re tuned into every little thing, I’m not because I’m constantly working,” she said. “In that scenario, I’ve been very, very communicative with her about that situation, and I just love her so much and support her till the end. So it was no weirdness for me, but I know people will just say things because that’s all they have time to do.”

She adds, “It’s so cool for me to get a perspective on this whole process from her and the community of artists that I feel I’m close to—to get advice from them on stuff that you can’t just ask the internet. We’re always playing each other our [music], and whenever I start to think, Maybe I’ll get on Twitter and say something about this, I’m always like, Maybe I’ll write a song instead.”
October 5, 2024
In response to being asked if Taylor has given her any advice about handling fame, Sabrina says "you just watch her like walk in a room and it's very easy to understand that she's so composed, she's graceful, she's gracious, I wouldn't say it's a verbal thing as much as she's very supportive of me and knows who I am as a person and is very supportive of that. I'm grateful for that."
