During her Eras Tour in New Orleans, Taylor Swift surprised fans with Sabrina Carpenter’s performance
Taylor Swift came bearing gifts to her Eras Tour concert in New Orleans on Saturday night. The singer dressed in orange announced that the rules of her surprise set had changed.

Sabrina Carpenter attends the Eras Tour as surprise guest
Before strumming the song, Swift said to the cheering crowd of 65,000 people in attendance, “I think tonight I’m going to do something completely different, which is that I’m going to sing a song that’s not mine, but it’s somebody that I really love.” Watching the response to the song the Lover songstress said, “So you really love that song as much as I do?” She added, “I know I’m just going on a tangent because I love my friend and I’m just so proud of Sabrina and the year she’s had.”
Swift then grabbed her phone, put Carpenter on speaker and said, “I’m really somewhere really loud, I’m in New Orleans on the Eras Tour.” She continued, “I just wanted to call and tell you that I sang a little bit of ‘Espresso’ and they said every word so loud. And I just wanted to say we all love you so much. What are you doing? Why aren’t you here with us?”
The Please Please Please songstress responded with “I’m somewhere where everyone is screaming so loud.” Swift answered back, “I’m somewhere where people are screaming so loud. “Can you come down to the stadium real quick? Ball park how long would that take you?” Carpenter replied, “It would probably take me five seconds” and the crowd cheered. However, they were left bewildered mid cheering as the Espresso singer appeared on stage and catwalk to her position, as reported by USA Today.

Both the pop singers dived into harmony as they began with an acoustic version of Espresso. The latter said “Holy Sh** New Orleans after finishing the first chorus. Swift then asked “Can I do it?” referencing the first line of the song’s second verse as she continued “I’m working late, cause I’m a singer.” She then sang her part of Is It Over Now and then Please Please Please from Carpenter’s album.
She concluded the act by expressing her gratitude towards the guest of the night for her performance. The Blank Space singer said, “She had literally one day off. “She is on tour. This is crazy she came to perform for us. Will you please give it up for Sabrina Carpenter?” And with that Carpenter disappeared into the stage.
Biles, who is married to Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens, was recently asked whether she has had an opportunity to “bond” with Swift during the NFL season.
Simone Biles and Taylor Swift may not have a lot in common, but there is one sport that connects them—the NFL. The Olympic champ and the pop sensation are both WAGs, which stands for “wives and girlfriends” of high-profile athletes. Despite sharing one commonality, the 27-year-old gymnast is not exactly looking to “bond” with the Cruel Summer hitmaker, here’s
Simone Biles reveals if she will develop a ‘bond’ with Taylor Swift over NFL games
Biles, who is married to Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens, was recently asked whether she has had an opportunity to “bond” with Swift during the NFL season. “No, I’m currently on tour, so unfortunately not,” she said, referring to the Gold Over America Tour during an interview with Access Hollywood at the premiere of her Netflix documentary Simone Biles Rising: Part 2 on Thursday.
I’ve missed a lot of games. But as soon as we finish tour, then yes,” she continued. “But you usually don’t bond with opponents,” Biles added, referring to Swift, who is dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. Despite her cheeky response, the 11-time Olympic winner has no bad blood with the pop icon as she has publically revealed her “Swiftie” status.
During the 2024 Olympics trials, Biles set her floor routine to Swift’s 2017 hit Ready For It?, with the singer lauding her performance. “Watched this so many times and still unready. She’s ready for it tho,” the Blank Space crooner wrote on X, formerly Twitter, in response to Biles’ choreography of her song.
Back in 2021, Swift starred in a promo video for the Olympic Games, cheering on Biles, who had made her return to the Tokyo Games after taking time off due to mental health reasons. “Throughout the last week, her voice has been as significant as her talents,” Swift said at the time in an NBC ad. “Her honesty as beautiful as the perfection that had long been her signature. But don’t you see? It still is. She is perfectly human. And that’s what makes it so easy to call her a hero.”
