Adele might be laid up with boyfriend Rich Paul, but she’s really thinking about Sabrina Carpenter in bed — at least according to the “Nonsense” singer.
On Sunday, Carpenter took to her official X page to respond to the “Hello” singer’s recent show of affection for her smash hit single “Espresso.”
After recounting a story about an uncharacteristically late-night performance during her Weekends with Adele Las Vegas residency, Adele joked, “As I got into bed last night, because [it] was a very late night for me, I found myself singing ‘I’m working late, ’cause I’m a singer’, that Sabrina Carpenter song — that song is my jam!”
Released on April 11, “Espresso” exploded into an instant smash for Carpenter, reaching No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100, her highest career peak, and spending three consecutive weeks atop the U.K. Official Singles Chart. The frothy Italo disco-tinged jam quickly went viral due to its cheeky “me espresso” lyric, with the aforementioned Adele-approved lyric also proving to be a fan favorite. Carpenter recently performed her new smash at last month’s Coachella and the season finale of Saturday Night Live over the weekend.
“[‘Espresso’] came out when I couldn’t f—ing talk,” Adele exclaimed. “It came out when I couldn’t talk or sing, so… all last night and this morning, that’s what I’ve been singing. From tomorrow, it’ll be ‘I’m sleeping late, ’cause I’m a singer’ — because that’s what I’m going to do tomorrow.”
In her typically saucy fashion, Carpenter quoted an X post about Adele’s love for “Espresso,” writing, “All [I] read was Adele thinks about me in bed <3.” Her tongue-in-cheek response lines up with her hilariously suggestive “Nonsense” outros; on the SNL finale, she sang “He is 30 Rock hard ’cause I said ‘Hi’/ My sense of humor is, but I am not dry/ SNL, I just came for the first time.”
Adele isn’t the only celebrity to express their taste for “Espresso.” Last month, Katy Perry captioned an Instagram reel of her lip-syncing to Carpenter’s hit, “I’m a singerrrr (and a mother, and a judge, and a…).”
