Sabrina Carpenter has unveiled the music video for her latest single “House Tour,” just days ahead of her much-anticipated performance at Coachella.

The “House Tour” video presents a cheeky narrative where the trio of glamorous bandits enters a lavish home. The scenes that unfold see them indulging in bubble baths and unexpectedly encountering high-value art, including a version of the iconic Mona Lisa, before they make off with a Grammy trophy. The women’s carefree escapade takes an unexpected turn as they find themselves fleeing from the police after ransacking the property.
In keeping with her unique stylistic flair, Carpenter continues a recurring theme in her music videos where her characters engage in perilous or dramatic encounters. This time, during their escape, they collide with an unnamed gentleman, responding to the incident with a casual shrug before hastening away. The video culminates with a humorous twist as a tarantula crawls across the carpet, contrasting sharply with the women’s chaotic jaunt, accompanied by a note thanking the homeowners for their time.
Carpenter took to Instagram to celebrate the video’s release, highlighting her collaboration with Qualley. Her post read, “House tour video is out now!! Starring the prettiest cleanup crew in the world, my sweet @isimostar and my angel @madelyncline Directed by Margaret & me! 💘 So much more to say but first go watch the video x.” This engagement reveals her excitement and pride in this new creative avenue.
The release of “House Tour” marks the beginning of what will undoubtedly be a whirlwind week for Carpenter. She is scheduled to take the stage at Coachella for the first time on April 10 and again on April 17. This follows her initial Coachella performance in 2024, where she previewed her song “Espresso.” During that appearance, Carpenter hinted at her aspirations to headline the festival, teasing the audience with a revised version of her song “Nonsense,” which included a nod to her future headlining role.
Carpenter’s return to Coachella as a headliner reflects her rising stardom and growing influence within the music industry. Other headline acts at this year’s festival include global superstars Justin Bieber, Karol G, and Anyma, adding to the prestigious lineup that fans can expect.
In the lead-up to her exciting performances, Carpenter’s “House Tour” music video not only showcases her artistic versatility but also reinforces her position as an emerging force in pop music. The blend of humour and style within the video hints at her creative vision for the future, making it evident that listeners and fans have much more to look forward to.
As Carpenter prepares to grace the Coachella stage, she brings with her the energy and creativity that have become hallmarks of her work. With her debut as a music video director and high-profile performances on the horizon, the singer-songwriter continues to captivate audiences and solidify her status in the entertainment world.
