Colman Domingo has recently confronted the online uproar sparked by his appearance in Sabrina Carpenter's music video for "Tears." The esteemed American actor made a glamorous entrance in the singer's newly released music video on August 29th of last month. In the visually striking clip, Colman was prominently featured among a myriad of drag performers, all gracefully dancing in unison behind Sabrina.
However, some internet users took to social media to criticize Colman, albeit without tagging him directly. Nevertheless, the post garnered Colman's attention, prompting him to respond with a touch of humor and grace. "It's merely a character, just like all the others I've portrayed," he penned, echoing the sentiment of his diverse acting repertoire. "Take a deep breath, friend," he added, displaying his characteristic ease.
He further elaborated, urging viewers to "savor the video and the joy it exudes. Dance along! It's really not that profound." Quoting the iconic RuPaul, Colman emphasized, "We are born naked; everything else is drag—suits, T-shirts, dresses. It's all drag."
Meanwhile, Colman's appearance in Sabrina's music video left some fans utterly astonished. One user shared a clip with the caption, "Seeing Colman Domingo dancing in drag alongside Sabrina Carpenter was the last thing on my 2025 bingo card, yet here we are, living our best lives!" In response, the "Euphoria" actor reposted the clip, quipping, "Didn't see that coming, did you? A heartfelt thank you to Sabs for inviting me to truly let loose and play."
This exchange captures not only the essence of Colman's formidable presence but also his adeptness in navigating public discourse with elegance and wit.
