Joshua Bassett slams Olivia Rodrigo and Sabrina Carpenter rumors Instagram: @oliviarodrigo \/ Twitter: Joshua Bassett \/ Instagram: @sabrinacarpenterJoshua Bassett rubbished claims a love triangle exists between him, Olivia Rodrigo, and Sabrina Carpenter after months of rumors, speculation, and references in lyrics and interviews. Joshua Bassett and Olivia Rodrigo were rumored to be dating but reportedly broke up after Olivia posted a picture wearing a t-shirt that said \u201cdump him\u201d after Joshua was spotted on a date with Sabrina. It sparked an apparent love-triangle feud that snowballed when Olivia released her debut single \u2018Drivers License.\u2019 It sounds a lot like a heartbreak anthem, and the lyrics seemingly tell her side of the story. In the first verse, she says, \u201cAnd you\u2019re probably with that blonde girl who always made me doubt.\u201d Sabrina released her single, \u2018Skin,\u2019 about a month later, and it appears she referred to that lyric. \u201cMaybe we could\u2019ve been friends if I met you in another life. Maybe then we could pretend there\u2019s no gravity in the words we write. Maybe you didn\u2019t mean it. Maybe blonde was the only rhyme,\u201d she says. Then, to make matters worse, Joshua was tricked into picking between the songs during a recent interview with PopBuzz. He chose \u2018Drivers License,\u2019 which made some fans happy, but \u2014 of course \u2014 left others furious. However, in a separate interview with ET Canada, he was asked about whether the song was about him, and he played it down, saying, \u201cThere\u2019s no response to be made. All I will say is, you know, that\u2019s her story to tell. Whatever the song is to her is her thing to tell, so I\u2019ll let her do that.\u201d He also played down the drama and urged fans to appreciate both artists and their songs. \u201cI hope people don\u2019t forget the value that her and Sabrina bring to the world outside the drama. I hope people will look at the depth of who they are instead of just the surface-level gossip.\u201d The relevant part of the video happens between 1:57 and 2:37. Joshua did an excellent job of diffusing the situation, but fans are still convinced there\u2019s more to it between the lines. We\u2019ll have to wait and see if Olivia and Sabrina add more fuel to the fire or whether they\u2019ll bury the hatchet once and for all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
