Sabrina Carpenter joined by Duran Duran for Hungry Like The Wolf performance at BST Hyde Park

Sabrina Carpenter was joined by Duran Duran for a surprise performance of Hungry Like The Wolf at her second BST Hyde Park gig.

The Espresso hitmaker was accompanied by the 1980s icons for a rendition of the 1982 hit at her second headlining show in London on Sunday (06.07.25).

Introducing the band as she was joined on stage by frontman Simon Le Bon and bass guitarist John Taylor, Sabrina said: “I also thought it might be fun if I brought out some friends of mine from the UK. I’m going to need you guys to put that howling to good use. But everybody please give it up and make so much noise for the legendary Duran Duran.”

Sabrina was also joined by Clairo on both of her BST Hyde Park dates over the weekend, with Beabadoobee performing on Saturday (05.07.25) and Olivia Dean taking to the stage on Sunday.

Meanwhile, the 26-year-old singer revealed last month that she was considering banning phones from her gigs after being inspired by a Silk Sonic gig in Las Vegas where fans were unable to access their devices.

Asked if she would consider making a similar move to Adele and Madonna, Sabrina told Rolling Stone magazine: “This will honestly p*** off my fans, but absolutely.

“Because I went to see Silk Sonic in Vegas, and they locked my phone. I’ve never had a better experience at a concert.

“I genuinely felt like I was back in the ’70s — wasn’t alive. Genuinely felt like I was there. Everyone’s singing, dancing, looking at each other, and laughing. It really, really just felt so beautiful.”

The Manchild artist explained that phones being held up at shows is something that “feels super normal” to her generation, although she is wary of people zooming in on her facial features when she gets older.

Sabrina said: “I’ve grown up in the age of people having iPhones at shows. It unfortunately feels super normal to me.

“I can’t blame people for wanting to have memories. But depending on how long I want to be touring, and what age I am, girl, take those phones away.

“You cannot zoom in on my face. Right now, my skin is soft and supple. It’s fine. Do not zoom in on me when I’m 80 years old up there.”
