Sabrina Carpenter and Olivia Rodrigo’s interaction at the 2025 Grammy Awards proved the pair have no bad blood.

Four years after their rumored love triangle drama with Joshua Bassett made headlines, the women shared a sweet moment together at the awards ceremony. In social media footage filmed inside the event, which took place at the Crypto.com Arena on Sunday, February 2, the musicians were spotted sharing a hug during a commercial break conversation.

Rodrigo, 21, seemingly stepped away from her date, boyfriend Louis Partridge, to talk with Carpenter, 25, at her table. Rodrigo kneeled to congratulate her fellow singer, who took home two Grammys that night: Best Pop Vocal Album for Short n’ Sweet and Best Pop Solo Performance for her hit song “Espresso.” When she stood up, Rodrigo leaned in to hear Carpenter in the noisy arena.

The interaction excited fans of both artists. “WAR IS OVER GUYS FINALLY,” one X user jokingly wrote on Monday, February 3, referring to the pair’s past feud rumors. A second fan tweeted that a “livbrina hug was not on my 2025 bingo card 😭😭,” while another X user wrote, “Bro this is huge, this just ended one of the biggest internet wars ever.”

Speculation of drama between the two artists started back in 2021 as fans believed Rodrigo’s debut single, “Drivers License,” referenced Bassett’s rumored romance with Carpenter. Rodrigo dated her former High School Musical: The Musical: The Series costar from 2019 to 2020, after which he was romantically linked to Carpenter until 2021.

“And you’re probably with that blonde girl / Who always made me doubt,” Rodrigo sings. “She’s so much older than me / She’s everything I’m insecure about.”

Both Bassett, 24, and Carpenter seemingly clapped back at the breakup drama in 2021 songs of their own. “So they told me all the things that you said / Running all over my name, oh / And you’re acting oh so innocent / Like I’m the only one to blame,” Bassett sings in “Lie Lie Lie.”

At the time, Bassett also praised Carpenter’s track “Skin” via social media, in which she sings, “Maybe we could’ve been friends / If I met you in another life / Maybe then we could pretend / There’s no gravity in the words we write / Maybe you didn’t mean it / Maybe blonde was the only rhyme / The only rhyme.”

Carpenter, however, denied that “Skin” was a “diss track” in a since-deleted Instagram post. Rodrigo later told Radio.com in March 2021 that she did not know her fellow former Disney Channel star “at all.”

Carpenter seemingly continued to address her and Bassett’s past romance in her 2022 track “Because I Liked a Boy,” singing, “Now I’m a homewrecker, I’m a slut / I got death threats filling up semi-trucks / Tell me who I am, guess I don’t have a choice / All because I liked [a boy].”

Rodrigo and Bassett, for their part, appeared to put their beef aside by posing for pics together at the season 3 premiere of their Disney+ series in July 2022. Rodrigo moved on from Bassett with Adam Faze and Zack Bia before beginning her relationship with Partridge, 21, in 2023.

Carpenter, meanwhile, was romantically linked to stars such as Dylan O’Brien, Shawn Mendes and David Dobrik after Bassett. She split from actor Barry Keoghan in December 2024 after nearly one year of dating.
