Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Taste’ Video
Directed by Dave Mayersthe official video for SC’s third new era single shows two girls who are dating the same young man (one of them is Sabrina and the other Jenna Ortega), and they fight to the death (literally) to get rid of each other to keep him, but for some strange reason, they never succeed.
However, in the end, they realize that the only one they actually killed was their now ex-boyfriend in common, and after attending to the funeral of the beloved boyfriend where her mother cries profusely, they decide to become friends to share experiences and opinions about their relationship. For Sabrina it was ‘latte drama’ and for Jenna ‘very insecure’.
Meaning and hidden messages of Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Taste’
Let’s move on to the most interesting part of this release that only SC could do with such mastery. Thanks to the lyrics of the song it is quite clear (because she herself does not mind being open about it) that the inspiration was the love triangle with Olivia Rodrigo and Joshua Bassett.
Sabrina x Joshua x Olivia
“That again?” Yes, but they are not talking about the same period that we all know so well. In fact, this confirms the theory that Joshua and Olivia are back after he and Sabrina broke up (probably after their reunion on the HSMTM 3 red carpet).
This is what Louis Partridge’s girlfriend made clear in her song and video ‘bad idea, right?’as he mentions and shows that he saw his ex again in a motel even though he knew it was a bad idea because of the chaotic past they have.
