Sabrina Carpenter and Jenna Ortega attempt to 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁 each other — and then kiss! — in the singer’s new “Taste” music video, which was released Friday.
The tragic film began with a much-needed explicit warning before Carpenter fled to exact revenge on her boyfriend’s new lover, played by Ortega.
However, the “Espresso” singer, 25, was not expecting the “Wednesday” star, 21, to put up such a bloody fight – with firearms, machetes, voodoo dolls, fire, and even more bizarre weaponry like her own severed leg.

The bloodbath that ensued seems straight out of a horror film, complete with a movie-worthy plot twist.
As Ortega shared a steamy make-out with the male lead, she seemed to have a 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual awakening as she envisioned kissing Carpenter instead.
Upon the realization, the “Halloween” star whipped out a chainsaw and drove it through Carpenter’s chest. However, it ended up being the boyfriend instead.

The moment was perfectly timed with the lyrics, “Well I heard you’re back together and if that’s true / You’ll just have to taste me when he’s kissing you.”
Although the two attend the man’s funeral together, they end up leaving early to grab coffee and compare notes on their “insecure,” “clingy” and now-deceased ex.
Fans online quickly noticed several of the bloody shots seemed to reference iconic moments in cinematic history.

At one point, Ortega wore a nurse costume and eye patch reminiscent of the one Daryl Hannah wore in “Kill Bill Vol. 1.”
They also referenced 2000’s “Ginger Snaps” when Carpenter was impaled on a white picket fence, leaving her with a massive hole in her abdomen.
Several other scenes seemed to be an ode to Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn’s hit, “Death Becomes Her.”
Carpenter’s highly anticipated album “Short n’ Sweet” was officially released on Friday. Her first two singles from the album — “Please, Please, Please” and “Espresso” — dominated the charts when they came out earlier this year.

Her music video for “Please, Please, Please” has received over 81 million views in two months after its release. Carpenter utilized the Bonnie-and-Clyde-themed video to solidify her romance with actor boyfriend Barry Keoghan.
Although the enjoyable shoot sealed their romance, the couple apparently hit a hard patch shortly after. Amidst split rumors, a source told People last week that the couple’s relationship is “on and off.”
However, they did not reveal Carpenter’s current relationship status with the “Saltburn” star.
