She faces off against singer Destin Conrad in video for latest Fancy That single
PinkPantheress is a chess master in the video for “Romeo,” the latest single off her second mixtape Fancy That.
Directed by Iris Luz, the video features PinkPantheress competing in a South London chess tournament. Her main opponent is played by Destin Conrad, and their romantic tension is reflected in their high-stakes game. When not at the tournament, the pair transform into the King and Queen on a life-size board who engage in a dance-off on the checkered floor.
PinkPantheress released her sophomore mixtape this past May. The song “Illegal” has since taken off on TikTok, so far cracking the Top Five on the dance charts. Last month, the U.K.-born star made her television debut with a medley of Fancy That singles on The Tonight Show.
The singer, songwriter, and producer has had a busy summer, playing Glastonbury in the U.K. and Way Out West in Sweden. In September, she will play two sold-out nights at London’s O2 Academy Brixton before she embarks on her North American tour later this year. An Evening With PinkPantheress will kick off Oct. 24 in Brooklyn at Kings Theater and wrap on Nov. 13 in Oakland with stops in Toronto, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco along the way.
