Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter are solidifying their friendship status with a girls night out.
The Life of a Showgirl pop star, 35, and the “Nonsense” singer, 26, were spotted grabbing dinner together in New York City on Friday, November 7.
Swift towered over Carpenter in red Gucci women’s horsebit platform slingback pumps while the pair were en route to SoHo restaurant The Corner Store.
The “Fate of Ophelia” singer teamed the heels with a Thom Browne RWB stripe-detail polo shirt and a matching Thom Browne asymmetric wool miniskirt.
For her part, Carpenter kept warm in a camel trenchcoat and opted for a black handbag and matching black heels to complete her look.
Earlier that day, the 2026 Grammy nominations were announced, with Carpenter getting the nod for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Album of the Year, Best Music Video, Best Pop Vocal Album, and Best Pop Solo Performance. (Swift was ineligible for nominations due to The Life of a Showgirl dropping outside the eligible period for next year’s Grammys.)
Swift has had a busy social week. As well as grabbing dinner on Friday with Carpenter, Swift was spotted on multiple date nights in the city with her fiance Travis Kelce.
Swift’s outing with Carpenter isn’t the first time Swift has been spotted with A-lister friends at The Corner Store.
In October 2024, Swift was snapped on a double date with Kelce and celebrity couple Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively.
According to its website, the venue has a “smart elegant” dress code. The American restaurant’s menu offers upscale dishes such as lobster and caviar rolls, filet mignon, steak frites and oysters du jour.
Swift and Carpenter have been frequent collaborators musically over the past few years, with the Girl Meets World alum even appearing on the title track of Swift’s recently released 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl.
The “Espresso” singer also appeared on stage during several legs, including Australia and South America, of Swift’s mammoth Eras tour, which ran from March 2023 to December 2024.
In August 2024, Carpenter gushed about her close connection to Swift during an interview with Variety and shared just how impressed she is by Swift’s work ethic.
“Well, Taylor is a rock star! She’s just such a gangster with all of it. No matter what people are saying, everything that I’ve ever seen her tackle, she’s done so with grace,” Carpenter told the outlet. “The posts about me having to ‘ask for her permission’ — no. She’s one of my best, best friends, and we grab dinner or text and catch up like you would with your best friend.”
Carpenter added that she knows Swift has her back when it comes to navigating the music industry.
“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,” she added. “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.’”
