The singer released her new album Man's Best Friend on Friday with a new music video accompanying her second single, "Tears." In the theatrical video, Carpenter is shown lying in a field after a car crash, only to discover a house in the middle of nowhere. However, when she goes inside she is surrounded by a funhouse of characters and is revamped to match the eclectic and sexy styles.

At one moment, the two share a dance break. At the end of the video, Carpenter's character is shown being thrown out of the house only to find the boyfriend she thought had died is alive after all. "It's a thing. Someone has to die every video," she tells him. "Sorry! We'll always remember you, though." She then throws her heel at him to kill him. Carpenter's seventh album, Man's Best Friend, features 12 new songs including her first single "Manchild." Prior to its release, the singer faced backlash for the album's suggestive cover art that featured Carpenter on her hands and knees with someone pulling a fistful of her blonde hair. While appearing on CBS MORNINGS, Carpenter said of the reaction to the cover art, "Like, y'all need to get out more, I think. I was actually shocked, because I think between me and my friends and my family and the people that I always share my music and my art with first, it just wasn't even a conversation. It was just, like, it's perfect. For what, for the what the album is, it's perfect for, you know, kind of what it represents, and everything about it to me just felt like so opposite of, like, the world ending." When offering her interpretation of the visual, she explained, "My interpretation is being in on the control. Being in on your lack of control and when you want to be in control. Like, I think as a young woman, you're, you're just as aware of when you're in control as when you're not. And I think some of those are choices, and I think for me, this whole album was about the humanity of allowing yourself to make those mistakes, knowing when you're, you know, putting yourself in a situation that will probably end up poorly." But it's gonna teach you something, so there was a lot of different meanings." She further explained there was "a lot of pointing fingers" despite no one having heard the project. "They don't know me. They don't know my intentions. They don't know the stories I'm telling. So, I do, I try to take it with a grain of salt and also know that my fans that know me and know the person behind the music will look at that photo and they know exactly what it is. And people that have no idea who I am absolutely look at that photo and go, like, 'Where are her parents?' ... My parents actually saw the photo and they loved it." Carpenter is also set to be featured on the title track of Taylor Swift's upcoming new album The Life of a Showgirl.
