The video for Boyfriend explores themes around desire, sexuality, and the dangerous (or at least disappointing) energy and actions of heteronormative men. It was shot in Los Angeles with a cast and crew of many queer-identifying artists over the course of one day. Dove Cameron released this song on her own, for her fans, via TikTok. Since then, the song has been streamed over 500 million times between TikTok, Spotify, and Youtube.
