‘A Little Gift’
Two singers teamed up for “That Don’t Impress Me Much,” which Carpenter previously covered during her Short n’ Sweet Tour
Sabrina Carpenter[1] delivered “a little gift” to fans Saturday during her headlining performance at the Austin City Limits as the singer welcomed Shania Twain[2] to the stage for a duet of “That Don’t Impress Me Much.”
“I show love in weird ways. One of the ways I show my love is by gift-giving. That’s one of my languages, and I thought it’d be fun to give you guys a little gift tonight,” Carpenter told the crowd. “Give you a little present because you all showed up and showed out for all of us. Awesome. Will you please make the most noise in the world for the incredible, one and only Shania Twain?”
The Man’s Best Friend singer and country hitmaker then launched into the 1998 single, which was one of the covers that Carpenter performed[3] during her previous Short n’ Sweet Tour. “Awesome. Shania Twain! Make some fucking noise,” Carpenter said after the performance.
The two singers previously paired up back in December 2024 when they performed an acoustic rendition of “Santa Baby” together[4] in Carpenter’s A Nonsense Christmas Netflix special; Twain played the role of Mrs. Claus on the special.
Carpenter will return to Austin’s Zilker Park next Saturday for her second of two headlining shows at the two-weekend Austin City Limits Festival[5]. Before that, the singer will make her Grand Ole Opry debut[6] on October 7.
