Sabrina Carpenter has one request for her rumored boyfriend Barry Keoghan: "Don't embarrass me."
The pop star released the music video to her new song "Please Please Please" on Thursday night, starring the "Saltburn" actor as her love interest.
Carpenter's latest includes a callback to her arrest at the end of her "Espresso" music video as she is bailed out at the beginning of "Please Please Please" and locks eyes with an incoming inmate, played by Keoghan.
The duo is quickly entrenched with Carpenter visiting her convicted boyfriend and waiting for him when he's released. Things quickly take a turn as Keoghan's character returns to a life of violent crime, including robbing a bank "Bonnie and Clyde" style.
"I heard that you're an actor, so act like a stand-up guy," the singer pleads to her music video interest, a cheeky reference to the Oscar-nominated star's career.

She continues in the chorus, "And please, pleasе, please don't bring me to tеars when I just did my makeup so nice / Heartbreak is one thing, my ego's another / I beg you don't embarrass me."

Keoghan's character can't seem to get his act together so the music video concludes with Carpenter handcuffing him to a chair, taping his mouth shut and kissing him as she leaves him to fend for himself.
"I ended the last video getting arrested, so naturally I thought it would be satisfying to start the ‘Please, please, please’ video in jail," Carpenter told Vogue in an email. “I liked the idea of falling in love with a convict and being shocked and embarrassed every time he commits crimes. I was sooo lucky to get Barry Keoghan in the video cause he is just magic on screen.”
Fashion has always been political.Are celebrities, designers at a turning point?
In real life, Carpenter, 24, and Keoghan, 31, have been romantically linked since December.
The duo attended the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party together in March and seemingly hard-launched their relationship at the 2024 Met Gala, marking their first red carpet appearance.
At the "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion" themed Met Gala, Carpenter honored the "Garden of Time" dress code in an Oscar de la Renta gown with a black, mermaid bodice and a light blue billowing skirt. Keoghan wore an olive velvet Burberry jacket with a waistcoat and trousers, giving more of a Mad Hatter vibe. Together, the couple looked straight out of "Alice in Wonderland."
