Taylor Swift Sings Sabrina Carpenter's Viral “Espresso” Lyric in Eras Tour Mashup

Taylor Swift is a big “Espresso” fan!

During her surprise duet performance with Sabrina Carpenter at her show in New Orleans on Saturday, October 26, Swift, 34, asked Carpenter, 25, if she could sing the viral lyrics to her song “Espresso” while the pair a mashup of them performing songs together.

“The first thing I asked myself…Can I do this?” Swift asked her former Eras Tour opening act – as heard in a TikTok video post from a concertgoer – during her mashup of “Espresso,” Swift's “Is It Over Now?” and “Please Please Please” by Carpenter. Carpenter replied, “You can do it!”

Swift then said, “Oh my God, I'm about to do it,” before singing, “I work long hours because I'm a singer,” as the crowd chanted the lyrics in unison.

Swift continued singing the rest of the second verse of “Espresso” and then led straight into her No. 1 hit “Is It Over Now?” out of 1989 (Taylor's version)which appropriately bears the text: “Let’s fast forward to three hundred takeaway coffees later.”

The singers then mixed “Please Please Please” with the other two songs during the acoustic surprise song portion of the show in NOLA.

Before the duet, the “Fortnight” singer called Carpenter on the phone, as seen in a video posted on X. Swift told Carpenter over speakerphone that she would be performing in New Orleans. “We all love you so much,” Swift said, before asking Carpenter, “Why aren’t you here with us?”

Swift then asked the “Taste” singer if she could “get to the stadium real quick,” and she also asked, “How long would it take you?”

Carpenter replied, “It would probably take me five seconds,” as the crowd roared with excitement.

“Okay, see you soon, I love you. Bye!” Swift said.
