Music video On October 31, 2023, Carpenter released a music video for "Feather", which was directed by Mia Barnes. The video's release coincided with Halloween. In it, Carpenter kills her ex-lovers who have wronged her. First, she is followed by feminist males who get rammed by a truck while they are not looking. She makes her way into a gym, where several men physically assault each other until dying without her needing to do anything. Carpenter enters an elevator and a man photographs her backside without her permission. She pulls on his tie and puts it between the elevator doors while exiting, decapitating him in the process. She laughs and exclaims: "I'm soooo sorry for your loss." Rolling Stones Larisha Paul summarized it: "Carpenter finds a middle ground between Jennifer's Body and Final Destination, with a pop girl twist, as she lets the universe take care of eradicating the posturing feminist men who followed her down the street, only to then be hit by a truck they were too distracted to see coming." Vultures Justin Curto called her character "the Girlfriend Reaper, who drives around in her pink hearse, killing men", comparing to the Grim Reaper.
