\n\tMadonna<\/a> and Sabrina Carpenter<\/a> brought their love for each other on the VMAs<\/a> stage after their song, \u201cBring Your Love,\u201d won best collaboration at the Sunday (Sept. 27) ceremony.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter their names were read by presenters David Corenswet and Isabel May, the two blonde pop superstars walked out on stage holding hands. Madonna went on to tell the \u201ctrue story\u201d of how their dance-pop duet came to be, revealing that she was initially left on delivered after she first reached out to Carpenter\u2019s team about possibly collaborating.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWhen five days passed, and I still didn\u2019t get connected with Sabrina and hear back from her about whether she wanted to do a song with me, I DM\u2019d her,\u201d Madonna said as the \u201cEspresso\u201d singer giggled. \u201cShe answered me back, and within weeks we were in the studio together. It was fabulous.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMy team is s\u2013tting themselves backstage,\u201d Carpenter quipped before assuring viewers that her reps are indeed responsive. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe \u201cVogue\u201d artist also shared some reasons why she and the former Disney Channel star work well together. \u201cWhen I show up late, she shows up early, so it works out,\u201d Madonna said. \u201cShe has OCD, and so do I. We write our lyrics down on a sheet of paper, like they did in the 1800s.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe pop icon added that \u201cBring Your Love\u201d is \u201ca song about people who think they know you better than you know yourself,\u201d while Carpenter gushed to her collaborator, \u201cI love you very much.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe sweet moment shortly came after Sab and Madge performed together <\/a>on the VMAs stage at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, opening the show with the former playing piano as the pop icon lounged on top of it. They sang \u201cBring Your Love\u201d \u2014 which debuted at No. 74 on the Billboard Hot 100 <\/a>in May \u2014 before the Queen of Pop continued on with a medley of Confessions II bops, including \u201cDanceteria.\u201d Charli xcx joined Madonna for the showcase, as did Julia Garner, sombr and Seth Rogen.<\/p>\n

\n\tCarpenter and Madonna went into the night with several nominations under their belts. Both were up for video of the year and artist of the year, while \u201cBring Your Love\u201d also received a song of the year nod.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Madonna and Sabrina Carpenter brought their love for each other on the VMAs stage after their song, \u201cBring…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":908128,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[64,63,1703,134,9607,136,9057,39703],"class_list":["post-908127","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-awards","tag-entertainment","tag-genre-pop","tag-music","tag-music-news","tag-vmas"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/908127","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=908127"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/908127\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/908128"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=908127"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=908127"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=908127"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
