Sabrina Carpenter Channels Rocky Horror In Her Most Iconic (And Outrageous) Video To Date

Sabrina Carpenter pays homage to a cult classic in her Tears music videoSabrina Carpenter is certainly holding onto her position as one of her generation’s most exciting music video artists.While past clips for her songs Taste and Please Please Please have seen her paying homage to Death Becomes Her and channelling Bonnie and Clyde, her latest effort sees her sending a defiant message to critics of her more sexualised offerings with a tribute to The Rocky Horror Picture Show.And, as with the aforementioned Taste and Please Please Please videos, the newest addition to her oeuvre also features an impressive A-list guest.On Friday morning, to coincide with the release of her already-controversial new album Man’s Best Friend, Sabrina unveiled the music video for the collection’s second track Tears.In the clip, she’s joined by two-time Oscar nominee Colman Domingo, who plays the Frank-N-Furter to her Janet.Colman Domingo in Sabrina Carpenter's Tears videoAs with Rocky Horror, the video opens with Sabrina dressed demurely, before she encounters Colman’s mysterious character, and finds herself in increasingly surreal (and, indeed, racy) scenarios, culminating in her putting her own spin on some of the cult film’s most iconic scenes.Meanwhile, as you may have come to expect from the performer of songs like Juno and Bed Chem, the lyrics feature some pretty suggestive double entendres.The song features Sabrina singing about how arousing she finds it when a man does simple things like showing “a little initiative”, “remembering I have feelings”, knowing how to “assemble a chair from IKEA” and even offering to “just do the dishes”.Sabrina Carpenter in some of the most memorable scenes in her Tears music video“I get wet at the thought of you being a responsible guy,” she croons over the chorus. “Treating me like you’re supposed to do, tears run down my thighs.”Alrighty then… shall we have the video now?Sabrina recently shut down critics of her more racy lyrics during an interview with Gayle King for Friday’s edition of CBS Mornings.“[My new album] album is not for any pearl clutchers,” she quipped. “But I, I also think that even pearl clutchers can listen to an album like that in their own solitude and find something that makes them smirk and chuckle to themselves…”“This is just fun”: In an exclusive interview tomorrow, pop superstar @SabrinaAnnLynn tells @GayleKing how she embraces the provocative lyrics in her highly-anticipated next album, “Man’s Best Friend.” pic.twitter.com/DBWlGjXu2K— CBS Mornings (@CBSMornings) August 28, 2025Sabrina Carpenter’s Man’s Best Friend is available to stream now.READ MORE:Thank You To Sabrina Carpenter For Reminding Everyone That Pop Is Supposed To Be ProvocativeSabrina Carpenter Hits Back At Critics Of Her Sexualised Performances And LyricsMiley Cyrus Names 1 Reason She's Concerned For Sabrina Carpenter
