Pop love triangles are so back! Sabrina Carpenter mesmerized fans when she released her album Short n’ Sweet in August 2024. After grooving to the soulful beats, fans deep-dived into the song lyrics, some of which were seemingly connected to her former flame Shawn Mendes — which meant that Sabrina may have been caught in the middle of his on and off relationship with Camila Cabello.

While the rumored love triangle is just that, Sabrina and Camila have seemingly fueled the speculation with the sound of sweet music.

Sabrina, Shawn and Camila are set to perform at the 2024 MTV VMA Awards on September 11, 2024, and fans are hoping that they spot an awkward run-in between the trio. Others, though, are still wondering what happened between them.

The former Disney star released Short n’ Sweet on August 23, 2024. Three songs seemingly hinted at her love triangle with Shawn and Camila, including, “Taste,” “Dumb and Poetic,” and “Coincidence.”

In the hit “Taste,” Sabrina is singing to the woman who’s the on-again, off-again girlfriend of her unofficial man. Scream actress Jenna Ortega plays the ex in the music video, which seemingly hints that the woman who is the subject of Sabrina’s song is a brunette — a description that could also match Camila’s.

“I heard you’re back together and if that’s true / You’ll just have to taste me when he’s kissin’ you,” Sabrina sings in the head-bopping chorus.

“Last week, you didn’t have any doubts/ This week, you’re holding space for her tongue in your mouth” Sabrina sings in “Coincidence,” seemingly referring to Shawn and Camila’s Coachella kiss. “Now shе’s sendin’ you some pictures wеarin’ less and less/ Tryna turn the past into the present tense, huh/ Suckin’ up to all of your mutual friends.”

Camila is on her phone throughout the song, seemingly responding to Sabrina’s “Coincidence” lyrics, “What a surprise, your phone just died/ Your car drove itself from L.A. to her thighs/ Palm Springs looks nice, but who’s by your side?/ Damn it, she looks kinda like the girl you outgrew/ Least that’s what you said.”
