URGENT UPDATE: Dylan O’Brien has just responded to swirling rumors that he is the “villain” referenced in Sabrina Carpenter’s latest hit, “Go Go Juice.” During his appearance on Watch What Happens Live earlier today, O’Brien offered his take on the speculation, which has captivated fans since Carpenter’s album, Man’s Best Friend, dropped.
The controversy erupted from a lyric in “Go Go Juice,” where Carpenter sings, “I’m just drinking to call someone / Ain’t nobody’s safe when I’m a little bit drunk…Could be John or Larry, gosh, who’s to say? / Or the one that rhymes with villain / if I’m feelin’ that way.” Many fans immediately connected the dots to O’Brien, whose name rhymes with “villain.”
In a candid moment on the show, the 34-year-old actor stated, “Well, I wasn’t aware,” when asked about the speculation. He humorously acknowledged the rhyme, adding, “Oh, and my name rhymes with villain.” When probed further by host Andy Cohen, O’Brien joked about Carpenter possibly drunk dialing him, stating, “Well, she’s never drunk dialed me.” However, he did entertain the idea that it’s possible she tried but he didn’t receive the call due to poor service at his home. “Yeah, you have to get me by FaceTime audio,” he clarified.
The speculation gained traction as O’Brien and Carpenter were linked romantically back in 2022. Fans suspect that the song references not only O’Brien but also other exes of Carpenter, possibly including Shawn Mendes and Joshua Bassett.
O’Brien, known for his breakout role in Teen Wolf, continues to be a prominent figure in Hollywood. He recently starred in Twinless and has upcoming projects including Anniversary, Send Help, and Being Heumann.
As the conversation around Carpenter’s lyrics intensifies, both stars remain in the spotlight, sparking discussions on relationships and artistic expression in music. Fans eagerly await any further developments, especially as Carpenter’s album continues to gain traction.
Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story and how it impacts both O’Brien and Carpenter’s careers and public perception.
