Shawn Mendes and Sabrina Carpenter step out amid dating rumors in Los Angeles.

A lot has been said about Sabrina Carpenter‘s latest album, with many online users speculating about the meaning behind some of the songs, indicating that the fan-favorite singer had some inspiration from her brief romance with Shawn Mendes.

After releasing her album ‘C,XOXO’ which was described as “a love letter to Miami,” and talking about her past relationship, both on the album and on stage while performing, Camila is seemingly giving her side of the story with her new song ‘Can Friends Kiss?’ as part of the ‘Magic City Edition’ of the project.

“I don’t like your new girl, she don’t move me / When you talk about her, I get moody,” Camila sings, and fans think there are some similarities to Sabrina’s song ‘Coincidence.’ 

Meanwhile, Sabrina sings; “Tryna turn the past into the present tense,” adding, “And you’ve lost all your common sense (You’ve lost all your common sense) / The way you told me the truth, minus seven percent (Minus seven percent) / What a coincidence.”
