Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter first connected in 2017 and their friendship has grown since
Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter’s friendship has come a long way over the years.
Before the pair became the besties they are today, Carpenter was a longtime fan of Swift. Before dropping tracks like “Nonsense” and “Espresso,” Carpenter posted covers of Swift’s songs on her YouTube page, including “Picture to Burn” and “White Horse.”
In addition to covering Swift’s music, Carpenter also attended several of Swift’s concerts. The former Disney star finally got the chance to connect with the Grammy winner backstage at one of her Reputation shows.
“She had her cats with her,” Carpenter recalled of meeting Swift for the first time in a January 2024 interview with Who What Wear. “I have older sisters, so if anything, it felt like that type of a relationship.”
After that initial meeting, the duo grew close as Carpenter began to make a name for herself in the music industry. After attending the Eras Tour herself in 2023, Carpenter was announced as one of Swift’s openers for her international leg.
