“It was very much a childhood dream come true,” Carpenter revealed of touring with the Grammy winner, who she says she’s admired for years.
She added, “I still probably have not processed it if I’m being completely honest with you.”
The “Nonsense” artist also spoke about how much respect she has for the “Anti-Hero” singer, and how far back their relationship goes.
Carpenter told Who What Wear that she first met Swift backstage at a concert when she was 17. “She had her cats with her,” the singer-songwriter recalled, revealing that they bonded over their love of cats.
