Taylor Swift has two new endorsements this week.
She’s not backing a political candidate, but instead the pop superstar took to her Instagram Story to encourage her fans to watch the Zoë Kravitz-directed movies “Blink Twice” (now in theaters) and listen to Sabrina Carpenter’s new album “Short ‘n Sweet.”
“This film is incredible. Thrilling, twisted, wickedly funny, and visually stunning. The performances are phenomenal,” Swift said, adding that her friend Kravitz “conceptualized this, wrote it, obsessed over every detail, and directed it with such a clear and bold vision.”
And her tour opener Carpenter: “Short. Sweet. Has made an extraordinary album” with checkmarks.
In July, the music megastar proclaimed it the “Summer of Sabrina (Carpenter).”
She praised her pop peer after Carpenter opened up about her breakout year in the industry in an Instagram carousel chronicling her recent career accomplishments.
“And just like that you guys sold out the entire short n’ sweet tour, espresso went #1 at pop radio andddddd i slid down this slide :’) thank you all so so much!!! i can’t wait to see you on the road,” Carpenter captioned the post.
Swift commented: “SUMMER OF SABRINA AND MAY IT CONTINUE FOREVER” with an angel emoji. The “Please Please Please” singer also opened for Swift on the international leg of her record-breaking Eras Tour. Earlier this summer, “Please” hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, the country’s most competitive chart, which marked the singer’s first time atop the list.
“Blink Twice” marks the directorial debut of Kravitz, 35, who’s known for her roles in “The Batman” and HBO’s “Big Little Lies.”
The psychological thriller follows a server named Frida (Naomi Ackie) as she’s swept off her feet by disgraced billionaire Slater King (Channing Tatum), who jets her to a private island for a getaway packed with friends and debauchery.
But soon, the women in the group start blacking out and waking up with concerning injuries. Others disappear altogether, and Frida grows desperate to uncover what’s really going on.
The singer shared a photo of her, Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively and Shawn Levy with a lengthy explanation of why she loved the movie. The five friends in October attended the Chiefs vs. Jets game, the second game Swift publicly showed support for her boyfriend Travis Kelce.
“Over the past few years I have watched one of my best friends on this planet pour every bit of his heart, soul, sweat, time, energy, jokes, pain, joy, rebellion, darkness, and magic into this film,” she wrote.
