The clip, shared on the “ Please Please Please ” singer’s social media on Aug. 21, immediately sent fans into a frenzy.

In the teaser, the 25-year-old pop star, dressed in dark attire, selects a knife from a bed filled with ominous weapons. The tension mounts as she prowls through a dimly lit house, building up to a tense confrontation with Ortega, who is caught in a compromising shower scene.

Just as Carpenter rips back the shower curtain to see Ortega and an unnamed man canoodling, the screen cuts to black, leaving viewers on edge. The teaser wraps with Carpenter coolly using the knife as a mirror to adjust her lipstick, uttering the chilling line, “Oh, I leave quite an impression.”

“Taste” is the third single from Carpenter’s highly anticipated sixth studio album, Short n’ Sweet , which drops on Aug. 23.

Carpenter co-wrote “Taste” with songwriting powerhouses Julia Michaels and Amy Allen, with production handled by John Ryan and Ian Kirkpatrick.

The track dives into complex relationship dynamics, a theme Carpenter doesn’t shy away from. “I will write any song. It doesn’t mean I’ll put it out, but I’ll write it,” the singer revealed in a recent interview with Paper magazine

“I think the series of unfortunate events I’ve encountered in relationships are no secret to people who know me or think they know me.”

Directed by Dave Meyers, known for his work on iconic videos like Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy” and Kendrick Lamar’s “HUMBLE.,” the “Taste” video is set to elevate the song’s drama with his trademark cinematic flair.

Sabrina has made a strong impact on the Billboard charts of late, with her single “ Please Please Please ” reaching No. 1 on June 29. “ Espresso ” also performed well, peaking at No. 3 on June 22. Earlier hits like “Feather” and “Skin” reached No. 21 and No. 48, respectively.

Short n’ Sweet is set to showcase Carpenter’s growth as an artist, with tracks like “Good Graces,” “Sharpest Tools,” and “Juno” exploring themes of love, heartbreak, and self-discovery.
