Alright, besties, let’s talk about the pop culture power couple that has been living rent-free in our heads: Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan. They’re adorable, chaotic, and undeniably that couple. But after diving into Sabrina’s lyrics, I can’t help but ask—is she lowkey dragging Barry down?
Now, before the Keoghan girlies come for me, let’s examine the evidence.
We all know Sabrina’s got a history of exposing her exes through bops, and while “15 Minutes” was aimed at a past relationship (we see you, Joshua), the energy of calling out clout-chasing tendencies still lingers. Enter Barry, an Oscar-nominated actor who was already big, but let’s be real—since dating Sabrina, he’s entered a whole new era. Red carpet moments? Check. Thirst traps disguised as “boyfriend soft launch” content? Double check. He even appeared in her “Please Please Please” music video, serving up that bad-boy, “maybe I’m the problem” aesthetic. But did that MV subtly roast him?
Sabrina’s new music video for the remix version of “Please Please Please” is basically an entire storyline of her being done with the most unserious man alive. Barry plays the guy who keeps getting arrested, causing chaos, and generally embarrassing her. Is it a performance, or is it…art imitating life? Because girl, if my man was out here getting caught up in the messiest PR moments (remember the ex and baby mama drama?), I’d be sending him straight to the inspiration board for my next hit single, too.
Sabrina’s latest song “Bad Reviews” is basically about being with a man who makes questionable choices, and she’s left dealing with the side-eye from the world. Sound familiar? The lyrics, “I could change your life, but you won’t change mine” hit a little too close to home. Barry is obviously that Irish menace we all adore, but let’s not forget—he was arguably in his messy era when they got together.
Listen, I love Barry. He’s chaotic, talented, and looks great in a Gucci campaign. But let’s be honest—dating Sabrina Carpenter is a level up. She’s on the rise, booked and busy, and currently carrying the summer with her bop after bop. Meanwhile, Barry is vibing, playing “boyfriend” in her music videos, and getting new fans purely because of his relationship status. Coincidence? I think not.
Sabrina isn’t necessarily dragging Barry—he’s just trying to keep up. Her music keeps getting more iconic, her brand is evolving, and if Barry isn’t careful, he might just end up as another lyrical casualty in her next hit song. Stay safe, king.
One thing’s for sure—if Sabrina ever drops a song with the words “Irish exit” or “actor with bad decisions,” we’ll know exactly who she’s talking about.
