Madonna reached out to Sabrina Carpenter for collab via Instagram DM
Madonna got directly in touch with Sabrina Carpenter via social media to ask her to work with her.
Madonna reached out to Sabrina Carpenter via an Instagram DM.
The 67-year-old singer has teamed up with the Espresso hitmaker on Bring Your Love, the lead single from her upcoming album Confessions on a Dance Floor: Part II and she's revealed she directly arranged the collaboration, even though it was a risky way of getting in touch as she was prepared for Sabrina not to believe the message was really from her.
Speaking to Graham Norton on a BBC special which aired in the UK on Friday (26.06.26) night, she said: “I sent her a DM on Instagram. Sometimes, you DM people and you are like, ‘They are never going to believe that it’s me . . .’. I just said, ‘I am making a new record and I would love to collaborate with you . . . ’. It ended up being Bring Your Love, it worked perfectly.”
While the new album is expected to be hugely successful, Madonna has no expectations, just as she didn't for its companion record, 2005's Confessions on a Dance Floor.
She said: “I don’t have any expectations. I have been doing this for a long time. You know, hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
"[With the first Confessions] it was mind-blowing as we didn’t have any idea how brilliant it was. No, I am just kidding. But it was a huge success. It took me by surprise.
“I’m excited for people to hear the whole album because it’s a whole story. It’s a whole journey.”
