Sabrina Carpenter goes on a surreal road trip in 'Manchild' music video: Watch here

Sabrina Carpenter has released a new song for your summer playlist





The music video for Sabrina Carpenter's new song, "Manchild," is here.


In the new video for the song, which was released Thursday and features an '80s pop sound with a hint of country, the Grammy winner hitchhikes across the country with one disastrous man after another -- a metaphor for going from bad relationship to bad relationship.


The surreal clip finds Carpenter catching rides with multiple men, some of whom are driving impossible vehicles, such as a jet ski and an armchair, both with wheels; a motorcycle with a supermarket shopping cart bolted to the side; and a truck with a tree growing out of the roof.

She also swims with sharks in a pool, takes a bath with some adorable pigs, runs from a shotgun-toting man and then takes aim with her own machine gun.


At the end of the video, she gets out of a car and immediately flags down another that pulls up next to her. She gets into that one and drives away.

On Instagram, Carpenter explained, "I wrote manchild on a random tuesday with amy and jack ... and it ended up being the best random tuesday of my life."

She went on to describe the song as "something I can look back on that will score the mental montage to the very confusing and fun young adult years of life."


"It sounds like the song embodiment of a loving eye roll and it feels like a never-ending road trip in the summer!" she added, noting that she's releasing the song now "so you can stick your head out the car window and scream it all summer long."


"Thank you always and forever for listening and thank you men for testing me!!" she wrote.


It's not clear if "Manchild" is a standalone single or the first release from a new album, but either way, Carpenter will likely give it its live premiere when she performs Saturday at Primavera Sound in Barcelona.

Rodney Hinton Jr. has been charged with aggravated murder in the death of the sheriff's deputy, who was struck Friday while directing traffic near the University of Cincinnati, according to authorities. Cincinnati police said Hinton is the father of 18-year-old Ryan Hinton, who was shot and killed by an officer the day before. Rodney Hinton Jr., seen here in court, has been charged with aggravated murder in the death of a sheriff's deputy. WCPO At a court appearance on Saturday, Hamilton County sheriff's deputies packed the courtroom in support of the fallen deputy, according to ABC Cincinnati affiliate WCPO. Prosecuting attorney Ryan Nelson said that Hinton Jr.'s movements in his car on Friday were "calculated and premeditated." He added, "He lined up his car, deliberately accelerated his car and purposely caused the death of an on-duty deputy sheriff." The attorney representing Hinton Jr. said that he faces a "very serious, very terrible charge" but noted that he has no felonies in his record. "I understand that this is an emotionally charged situation," the attorney said, mentioning the death of Hinton Jr.'s son. He added, "I understand that there is a lot of sadness and a lot of anger in this room right now and in the community at large." The judge ordered Hinton Jr. held without bond in the Clermont County jail until his next hearing on May 6. In a statement Saturday, attorneys representing the Hinton family said they were hired to investigate the death of Ryan Hinton and that Rodney Hinton, along with other family members, met with Cincinnati police on Friday to view body camera footage of his shooting death. The deputy was struck Friday while directing traffic near the University of Cincinnati, according to authorities. WCPO "Ryan Hinton's family, including Ryan's father, was present at the meeting and they were understandably distraught as they watched the bodycam video," the statement said. "After the meeting with the police department, Ryan Hinton's father left in his own vehicle and that was the last we heard from him until learning about the tragic incident involving a law enforcement officer who was working a traffic detail near the University of Cincinnati." The attorneys are Michael Wright, Shean Williams and Robert Gresham of The Cochran Firm, as well as Anthony Pierson of Pierson and Pierson, LLC, according to WCPO. The statement went on to say: "This is an unimaginable tragedy for this community. Ryan Hinton's family is heartbroken by this tragic turn of events and we are all devastated for the family of the officer who was killed." The deputy has not yet been publicly identified under an Ohio law that protects the privacy of victims and their families. However, police said the deputy had recently retired and was serving in a special capacity with the department

  Israel-Iran updates: Israel and Iran agree to ceasefire, Trump says The agreement has two 12-hour ceasefire periods before the war is over, he said. Iran carried out a missile attack on the United States’ Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar on Monday, according to a U.S. official, two days after  the U.S. struck three nuclear sites in Iran. There are no reports of casualties at the base, according to a U.S. official. Iran's attack was in response to the U.S. on Saturday sending B-2 bombers to drop 14 Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs -- known as "bunker busters" -- over Iran. President Donald Trump on Sunday said that "Monumental Damage was done to all Nuclear sites in Iran," though Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine said a full battle damage assessment is still pending. Also on Monday, Trump announced that Israel and Iran have agreed to a ceasefire, after more than a week of aerial attacks following Israel's attack on Iran's nuclear program. ...
