The “Espresso” singer dropped the album on Friday, August 23, and her fans on X (former Twitter) believe some of its tracks hint at the rumored love triangle between her, Mendes, and Cabello.
According to The Express Tribune, Sabrina Carpenter and Shawn Mendes were rumored to be dating in February 2023. However, neither has ever confirmed a romantic relationship.

Now, some fans believe that Carpenter is finally addressing the subject in her latest album, Short n’ Sweet, with some of the tracks including “Taste,” “Coincidence,” and “Dumb & Poetic.”

The X (formerly Twitter) theory centers around the lyrics of Sabrina Carpenter’s latest album, Short n’ Sweet. Many fans believe that several songs from the album refer to the rumored relationship drama between Carpenter, Shawn Mendes, and Camila Cabello. The opening track, “Taste,” seemingly refers to Mendes’ shirtless pictures, as reported by People Magazine. The lyrics say, “You’re wonderin’ why half his clothes went missin’ / My body’s where they at.” The pop star also mentions being involved in an on-again-off-again relationship, hinting at the “Stitches” singer’s turbulent romance with Cabello.
A fan on X (formerly Twitter) posted about how the singer “ATE SHAWN AND CAMILA UPPPPPPPPPPP OMGGGG” in her new album, Short n’ Sweet. Others have commented on another rumored love triangle, this time between Carpenter, Joshua Bassett, and Olivia Rodrigo.
Many fans are showing support for Carpenter and Cabello. “Istg they better not drag either of the girls cuz it’s clearly Shawn’s fault,” stated one user. Others appear to be confused, claiming they are only now finding out about the rumored love triangle.
Another of Carpenter’s songs, “Coincidence,” from her new album Short n’ Sweet has been interpreted as a reference to Camila Cabello. The lyrics suggest a betrayal. Additionally, some fans believe that the lyrics of “Dumb & Poetic,” target one of Carpenter’s exes, supposedly Shawn Mendes. In another song, “Sharpest Tool,” Carpenter focuses on a former love interest who went back to his previous girlfriend. This has also been interpreted by some as a reference to the rumored Mendes and Cabello drama.
