Sabrina Carpenter is having a career boon while supporting Taylor Swift on her Eras tour, but it hasn't stopped people poking fun at her.

The former Disney star is opening for Swift on her record-breaking tour, which is currently in Australia. They have just finished a series of three shows in Melbourne where they played to a crowd of 96,000 people at each show.

In her downtime, Carpenter tagged along with Swift and her NFL star boyfriend Travis Kelce as they visited Sydney Zoo on Thursday. A video of them touring the zoo together was posted to the Pop Crave account on X, formerly Twitter, on Thursday.

The blonde singer, who is rumored to be dating Oscar-nominated actor Barry Keoghan, was mocked for "third-wheeling" the famous couple as she trailed behind them on their sightseeing trip.

"not sabrina third wheeling [crying emoji]," replied one person to the post.

Another person wrote: "not sabrina being their child."

And a third posted: "tf sabrina doing there my girl third wheeling [crying emoji]."

It got even worse for Carpenter when she was due to perform in Sydney with Taylor.

Accor Stadium, where the concert was being held, was partly evacuated due to due to severe weather conditions—including lightning strikes—effectively canceling Carpenter's set. After the weather calmed down, the stadium had to be prepared again for Swift's main show.

Even flights from other cities in Australia destined for the concert were delayed due to the storms.

"Sabrina Carpenter will unfortunately not be opening up for Night 1 of Taylor Swift's 'The Eras Tour' in Sydney, Australia due to the weather delay," a Swift fan account posted on X.

Carpenter and Swift have become fast friends in the past year, and the former has been a regular fixture in the "Bad Blood" singer's suite when she watches Kelce play for the Kansas City Chiefs.

She was even in the private suite with Swift to watch Kelce win his third Super Bowl with the Chiefs earlier this month.

But both Swift and Kelce have come under fire for the amount of miles they've racked up in private jet travel to see each other.

Kelce flew on a Bombardier Global 6000 for the 10-hour flight from Hawaii to Sydney to see Swift.

Influencer Oli London claimed on X that Kelce's roundtrip flight will "emit 3 metric tons of CO2. The CO2 emissions equate to melting 95.4 square feet of Arctic sea ice."
