Here’s what’s going on between Olivia Rodrigo, Sabrina Carpenter and Joshua Bassett

I don’t know about you, but I spent the weekend on social media following the events of the Olivia Rodrigo – Sabrina Carpenter – Joshua Basset triangle with extreme attention.

his Twitter, Instagram and obviously TikTok fans continue to collect all the alleged digs that the three have been throwing for days.

Obviously there are those who take sides with one, those with the other, those who keep an eye on comments and ig stories. But the truth, as always, only the protagonists know.

To clarify, this morning Sabrina Carpenter published a post explaining that the text of Skin, the song indicted as dissing Olivia Rodrigo, would not refer to a particular person and that, while a couple of stanzas describe specific episodes, others tell about different situations faced in life. “I haven’t written a diss track. I was at a turning point in my life for countless reasons and I reacted by writing what I wanted to say to myself in the past ». So she asked those who listen to her to change the point of view of the narration, focusing on respect. In addition, he also talked about the single that first sparked all this uproar, Drivers license, calling it magnificent. Finally, he appealed to fans: “I don’t want this to become a vicious circle, so don’t take my words as an opportunity to incite more hatred.”

Okay, so basically a lot of ado about nothing? So, let’s take a step back and try to reconstruct what happened to understand if this umpteenth triangle in sauce Disney (reminded me of the one between Miley Cyrus, Nick Jonas e Selena Gomez back in 2009) is all the fruit of our imagination:

Therefore, Olivia rodrigo e Joshua Bassett they met on the set of High School Musical: The Musical – The Series in which they interpret What e Ricky, the contemporary version of Troy e Gabriella. The obvious chemistry between them led fans to think that there was also tender in real life: the two were often together, they exchanged tender comments on social media and he at the beginning of 2020 had published two love songs that seemed to be related to her, Common Sense e Anyone Else.

No one had ever confirmed or denied anything, until last August, when Olivia posted this TikTok with the background music of All I want, song she sings on the show to his character about a failed relationship:

@livbedumband that’s on failed relationships♬ All I Want by Olivia Rodrigo – Alyssa Elness 🦋

Be careful though, because the chaos only broke out in early January 2021, when Olivia released the autobiographical single Drivers license, in which she sings the love (now over) for the boy who helped her get her driver’s license.

The text is clear enough:

And you’re probably with that blonde girl
Who always made me doubt
She’s so much older than me
She’s everything I’m insecure about

And I know we weren’t perfect
But I’ve never felt this way for no one
And I just can’t imagine how you could be so okay now that I’m gone
Guess you didn’t mean what you wrote in that song about me

Olivia it refers to a blonde girl older than her, who always made her doubt and feel insecure and tells the boy that, given how it ended, the words he had written and sung for her were not true then.

And it is here that, being called into question (is with Joshua, is 21 years old so 4 more than Olivia and she is blonde) Sabrina has seen fit to release Skin, the song considered the answer to Drivers License. Here too, despite everything, the text leaves little room for imagination:

Maybe we could have been friends
If I met you in another life
Maybe then we could pretend
There’s no gravity in the words we write
Maybe you didn’t mean it
Maybe “blonde” was the only rhyme

And I’m not asking you to let it go
But you been tellin’ your side
So I’ll be telling mine
You can try to get under my skin
While hе’s on mine

After the release of the song, Olivia has published some ig stories while dancing … Ready for it The Queen’s Song of the Ex-Snatches, aka Taylor Swift, which mentions the very term “revenge”.

in fact, objectively sabrina is older than at least 5 years of olivia and to act in this way I find it very immature, also because she practically mentions olivia in the text and it is not fair for that girl who has only expressed her feelings and praised her

So if a 17-year-old puts me in a bad situation, I shouldn’t answer? She is in the world of music and this requires an absurd maturity and she is almost 18, there is no talk of drastic age differences let’s stop using her as an excuse

In short, a real civil war has started on social media between those who support Olivia and who Sabrina. E Joshua, in all this?

who are you? i’m you but
stronger

Well, he complimented both of them and just released a song Lie, lie, lie which, however, apparently, would not refer to their triangle (at least this one).

Ok, Sabrina he said his while Joshua e Olivia are silent. It is normal to make assumptions, to side with who we think may be right or believe that there are continuous references. But let’s not forget that relationships are made by people and that respect must always be the basis of everything. Maybe this triangle is real, but it’s their business anyway.

But fear not, we will be ready to update you on the developments of the affair. Bye!
