In a recent interview, Sabrina Carpenter denied asking Taylor Swift for permission before agreeing to do a campaign for Kim Kardashian’s Skims brand in April of this year.

“The posts about me needing to ‘ask her permission’… no. She’s one of my best friends, and we have dinner together or send messages and talk like you would with your best friend,” she said in an interview with Variety.
Carpenter, who has previously opened for Swift during the The Eras Tour, posed in lingerie for a Skims collection earlier this year. “I’m so excited that Skims chose me to be the face of this campaign, as I’ve always been a fan of the brand,” she said at the time.
At the time, the choice left “swifties” somewhat confused, as Swift and Kardashian have been at odds since 2016, after the businesswoman leaked an edited phone call between the singer and Kanye West, labeling the artist as a “snake.”
Despite this, Carpenter continues to insist that working for Skims did not cause any friction between her and Swift. “In this situation, I’ve been very, very communicative with her about the situation, and I love her so much and support her to the end,” she assured Rolling Stone in June.
