Kevin Bacon Was Shouted Out In Sabrina Carpenter’s New Song, And The Video Of His Daughter Sosie Telling Him Is So Wholesome

As a longtime fan of Kevin Bacon‘s illustrious career, I can’t help but feel a warm sense of admiration for the man who has left an indelible mark on Hollywood. From his early days at Animal House to his recent roles, Bacon has proven time and again that he is not just an actor, but a true cinematic icon.


In theory, any actor in Hollywood can be connected to Kevin Bacon within six degrees or fewer, demonstrating the remarkable scope of his acting career (He’s also set to appear in a couple of films scheduled for 2024). Now, however, Bacon can proudly claim he has truly arrived, following reports that he is mentioned in Sabrina Carpenter’s song “Taste.” His daughter Sosie shared the news with him, and it’s heartwarming to see the video of this touching father-daughter moment.

Sosie Bacon, an actress who stands independently, is evidently a supporter of Sabrina Carpenter’s latest album “Short n’ Sweet“. This is particularly so after listening to the lyrics in the song “Taste”, which prompted her to contact her father with enthusiasm, commending him for his enduring influence in pop culture. You can catch their charming exchange on Instagram:

In the “Taste” song lyrics, Kevin Bacon’s name isn’t explicitly mentioned. However, it is evident that a look of recognition swiftly appears on the renowned actor’s face when Sabrina Carpenter seems to allude to the “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon” game by singing in this manner:

You might be puzzled as to why half his wardrobe disappeared, but now it seems those items are on my person since I am the one who took them. Even though I have moved on, you remain lying next to me, connected by a single degree of separation.

As a gamer, I couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement for my old man, yet a touch of playful exasperation kicked in when he chuckled over his obliviousness to the “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon” game.

I guess me and Sabrina Carpenter are one degree of separation.

The actor also proved that no father is too famous to throw a good dad joke his daughter’s way, as he said of Sabrina Carpenter:

Well she clearly has… ‘Taste.’ See what I did?

That’s a real groaner, but I still love it.

As a gamer, I can’t help but notice the strong bond between Kevin Bacon and his daughter Sosie. They’re not just father and daughter; they’re two halves of a whole, sharing the same home with Kyra Sedgwick, his beloved wife. In 2022, when Sosie stepped into her first leading role in the chilling horror movie “Smile”, I felt the pride radiating from Kevin like a beacon. The affection they display during that phone call is as genuine as it gets.

In a simple and conversational manner, It’s interesting to note that Sosie Bacon made approximately 10 calls to her father, Kevin Bacon, before their FaceTime chat started. This might suggest how much time it takes him to prepare for the camera. Let me just say, he looked fantastic!

In terms of being popular among young women, as Sosie put it, it’s unlikely that Kevin Bacon’s father has ever faced such a situation, given that Kevin made his mark in the film industry since his debut in “Animal House.” However, more recently, he has played antagonistic roles in films like “MaXXXine” and “Beverly Hills Cop: Axle F,” which might be how younger audiences recognize him, rather than the exuberant character from “Footloose” who shouted “Let’s dance!

This was such a heartwarming look into Kevin Bacon’s relationship with his daughter, and maybe next Sosie can get his reaction to Sabrina Carpenter going goth with Jenna Ortega in the “Taste” music video.
