Taylor Swift fuels Olivia Rodrigo feud rumors by bringing alleged rival Sabrina Carpenter on ‘Eras Tour’
Maybe there is “Bad Blood” between Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo.
Swift’s Latin American leg of her “Eras Tour” will include appearances from Rodrigo’s nemesis Sabrina Carpenter.
“Really thrilled to tell you this!! Mexico, Argentina and Brazil: We are bringing The Eras Tour to you this year!” the “Blank Space” singer, 33, wrote in an Instagram post on Friday.
“Sweet angel princess @sabrinacarpenter will be joining us on all of the shows!”
The pop star added that there will be “LOTS more” international dates added to the tour in the near future.
Carpenter, 24, also shared her excitement, writing on Instagram Friday, “trying to process this but alas i shant.”
She added, “CANT WAIT TO JOIN THE ERAS TOUR IN LATIN AMERICA thank u @taylorswift u the 1 :’) this is a dream come true.”
Swift’s announcement further fueled rumors that she and the “Driver’s License” singer, 20, have some major beef.
Rodrigo was famously a major fan of Swift’s since she was a young girl and even shared her excitement when the “Anti-Hero” artist gifted the rising pop star a ring in March 2021.
“She is absolutely the kindest individual in the whole world,” the “High School Musical: The Musical: The Series” star said during an interview with SiriusXM at the time.
The two songwriters had also publicly fangirled over each other multiple times via social media.
But things seemingly took a turn when Swift and music producer Jack Antonoff were given writing credits on Rodrigo’s song from her “Sour” album, “Deja Vu,” which the teen had said was heavily influenced by Swift.
But in 2021, when Rodrigo was announced Time Magazine’s Entertainer of the year, she told the magazine, “It was really frustrating to see people discredit and deny my creativity.”
A TikToker then pointed out that Swift and Rodrigo didn’t take any photos together at the 2023 Grammys even though they both attended.
“But she does take photos with Sabrina Carpenter who’s been publicly referred to as Olivia’s ‘frenemy’,” TikToker Thickbrunette66 said in a video posted in May.
“So all in all, there’s no solid proof that the two are in a feud, but for them to go from being so supportive publicly of each other to nothing, definitely has me curious,” the netizen added.

Meanwhile, tensions between Rodrigo and Carpenter, 24, date back to 2021 when rumors swirled that the “Nonsense” singer started dating her ex-boyfriend Joshua Bassett, 22.
Rodrigo’s hit song “Driver’s License” is widely believed to be about Carpenter and Basset’s romance and she even sings the lyrics, “you’re probably with that blond girl / Who always made me doubt / She’s so much older than me / She’s everything I’m insecure about.”
Carpenter is notably four years older than Rodrigo, and blond.
In March, Carpenter and Shawn Mendes sparked dating speculation, though the “Stitches” singer later denied the claim. Meanwhile, Rodrigo is dating Adam Faze, and Bassett, for his part, confirmed he is a member of the LQBTQIA+ community in June 2021.
As for T-Swit, she is dating The 1975 member Matty Healy following her breakup with her boyfriend of six years Joe Alwyn.
