Madonna Joins Sabrina Carpenter’s Coachella Set With Classics and a New Song

The cameo served as a splashy launch point for her July 3 Confessions II album rollout.

Overview

  • Sabrina Carpenter brought out Madonna during her Weekend Two headlining set Friday, and the pair performed Vogue, Like a Prayer and a newly unveiled duet.
  • Madonna rose from center stage during Carpenter’s Juno segment, the spot where Carpenter often brings out a guest, right as the music flipped to the Vogue medley.
  • Madonna used the moment to preview new material tied to Confessions II, with iHeartRadio’s Pride Radio premiering the single earlier Friday as part of the album’s rollout.
  • Onstage she called the performance a full‑circle return to Coachella 20 years after her 2006 Sahara Tent set, even noting she wore the same boots and corset.
  • The collaboration linked two generations of pop and validated days of fan speculation, with Coachella’s global livestream helping turn the surprise into a wider promotional jolt.
