Sabrina Carpenter Turns Men to Stone in 'Almost Love'
By Matt Moen
Jul 18, 2018Former Girl Meets World star-turned-pop princess, Sabrina Carpenter, has returned with a music video for her new single "Almost Love."
Carpenter clearly appreciates the finer things in life, dancing around a sprawling mansion flanked by glamorous socialites with a veritable buffet of handsome boys waiting on the front lawn. A cool and detached Carpenter leads her chosen heartthrob to a Gatsby-esque greenhouse gradually building the tension as they go in for the fairy tale first kiss. However, in a cruel twist of fate Carpenter's kiss turns our eye-candy into stone giving new meaning to 'chiseled Adonis'.
"Almost Love" luxuriates in the chase. The thrill of will-they-or-won't-they that builds up into that storybook climax. But "Almost Love" also subverts that same notion by revealing that in the end its just something pretty to look at, statuesque.
