Sabrina Carpenter does have good judgment and taste when it comes to picking music video leads. 

The “Please Please Please” singer shared a teaser trailer of her upcoming Aug. 23 music video for “Taste,” in which she’ll star alongside Wednesday’s Jenna Ortega. 

In the clip Sabrina posted on Instagram Aug. 21, the “Nonsense” singer, 25, picks a knife up from a selection of weapons, artfully laid out on a plush pink bed. The scene cuts to Sabrina, dressed in a blue top, black capris and heels, walking into a mansion with the knife, before running up a grand staircase as she raises it in the air á la Child’s Play. 

Later, Sabrina wears an all white ensemble as she walks into a bathroom and peels back a clear curtain to reveal Jenna showering with a mystery man. The 21-year-old has a shocked, then slightly terrified, expression before the scene cuts to black and Sabrina is shown again admiring herself in the reflection of a clean knife blade. 

In the background, the opening notes of the upcoming song play, and Sabrina sings, “Oh I leave quite an impression.”

Sabrina’s chosen “Taste” costar could be a subtle nod to her past life on Disney, as both she and Jenna—who starred on Girl Meets World and Stuck in the Middle, respectively—rose to fame through the children’s network and have gone against the grain ever since. 

While Jenna has lauded her roots, she’s become the film industry’s biggest scream queen. And as for Sabrina?

“I’m 900 inappropriate jokes away from being a Disney actor,” she told Variety in an interview published earlier this month. “I’m always extremely flattered to be grouped in with the other women and girls who I’ve idolized and looked up to who came from that, but I feel very distant from it.”

Jenna’s casting also comes shortly after Sabrina debuted her romance with actor Barry Keoghan in her video for “Please Please Please” June 6. 

“I don’t want to sound biased, but I think he’s one of the best actors of this generation,” Sabrina gushed of the Saltburn star to Variety. “So getting to see him on the screen with my song as the soundtrack made the video better and all the more special.”

And while the couple starring in “Please Please Please” together appeared at the time to be a romantic gesture, Sabrina inviting Jenna into the mix for her Short N’ Sweet era proves she is building up the movie star aesthetic—which she previously shared as the vibe for her upcoming sixth LP. 

As she told Variety, “I love the faces of the ’60s and ’90s—old Hollywood, flirty and fun.”
