On 29 August, pop's bawdiest diva Sabrina Carpenter unleashed her seventh studio album Man's Best Friend, plus a The Rocky Horror Picture Show inspired music video for new single "Tears". The hazy, five-minute disco romp features actor Colman Domingo in numerous states of drag and Carpenter in numerous states of undress, with Domingo's character loosely based on the gothic film's iconic gender bender Frank-N-Furter.

Once inside, she's introduced to two-time Oscar nominee and star Colman Domingo, who is donning a cropped suit, red belt and lipstick and a finger wave wig à la Dr. Frank-N-Furter's androgynous style. The campy, five-minute clip continues with Carpenter being pushed into a hidden disco room among a rabble of queer outsiders and drag divas, before her baby blue skirt suit co-ord is stripped off her by a flurry of hands with extravagantly long red nails.

Sasha Velour celebrates her new book, The Big Reveal: An Illustrated Manifesto of Drag, at the New York Public Library in 2023.
