Sabrina Carpenter Delivers Surprise Performance at Met Gala 2026, Duets with Stevie Nicks

Sabrina Carpenter claimed the spotlight as this year's surprise musical guest at the Met Gala 2026, delivering an unforgettable performance that included a special collaboration with Stevie Nicks.

The 26-year-old artist took the stage during dinner at the prestigious event held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on Monday, May 4. Fresh from her headlining slot at Coachella last month, Carpenter brought momentum to the gala's musical program.

Carpenter and Nicks performed a duet of "Landslide," marking another high-profile collaboration for the singer. Her appearance follows a recent performance alongside Madonna at Coachella, adding to what appears to be a season of legendary partnerships.

The performance showcased several of Carpenter's popular tracks, including "Espresso," "House Tour," and "Please Please Please." For her solo numbers, she donned a vintage Versace dress featuring Marilyn Monroe imagery.

Carpenter's appearance comes as she continues to support her album Man's Best Friend, which dropped during her Short 'n Sweet Tour. Industry chatter suggests she may announce another tour in the coming months to further promote the record.

On the red carpet, Carpenter made a fashion statement in a Dior gown constructed from film strips sourced from the movie Sabrina. Nicks, meanwhile, arrived in a custom Zara by John Galliano ensemble paired with Tiffany & Co. jewelry.
