Barry Keoghan Is In Sabrina Carpenter’s New VideoSabrina Carpenter YouTube

What’s harder than a hard launch? Sabrina Carpenter might have the answer with her new 'Please, Please, Please' music video, which co-stars her real-life boyfriend, Barry Keoghan. In the visuals, the pair play a criminal couple who bail each other out of jail and repeatedly get themselves into trouble—all while being madly in love. (They’re like a fashionable, modern-day Harley Quinn and Joker, and Keoghan is supposedly playing the Batman villain after all.)

While dressed in body-hugging minidresses and neon-coloured furs, Carpenter sings about being in a new relationship, wanting it to go right, and praying her partner doesn’t make her look bad. 'Heartbreak is one thing / My ego’s another / I beg you don’t embarrass me / Mother fucker,' she says in the chorus. The lyrics seem to directly reference her romance with Keoghan. (They’ve been linked since the fall of 2023.) 'I heard that you’re an actor / So act like a stand up guy,' she sings in the first verse about her Oscar-nominated beau.

This marks Carpenter’s second single from her upcoming album, Short ’n Sweet, picking up where 'Espresso' left off. Literally speaking, the new music video has her going to jail, following her arrest at the end of the video for 'Espresso.'

Carpenter told Cosmopolitan in March that she had been 'working on the next thing for a minute,' following her last album Emails I Can’t Send. 'I’m starting to feel like I’ve outgrown the songs I’m singing, which is always an exciting feeling because I think that means the next chapter is right around the corner.'

She discussed her approach to dating in the interview, saying, 'A lot of it, for me, has been fate. I know that’s super broad, but I don’t actively look for it. The relationships that I actually want to put my energy into have to be so interesting or invigorating because they take me away from the other things I love. So yeah, it’s fun, and it’s messy. I think I’m still just at this place where I’m really enjoying the newness of all of it.'

She added, 'When I was younger, the one thing I always thought was, why would I date this person if I didn’t see myself marrying them? I just wouldn’t even put energy into it. But now I have a mentality that there are relationships that are meant to be in your life, even if it’s only for a couple of weeks.'
