The official video for "Romeo" tells the story of Romeo and Juliet with a daring twist. In this version, Anitta plays Romeo, wearing shining armor and displaying her courageous and extroverted spirit. Meanwhile, Juliet is played by Larissa, the artist's birth name, in a more reserved and introspective role. Through this duality, Anitta exposes the different dimensions of her personality, achieving a visually striking interpretation full of symbolism.
With this new release, Anitta continues consolidating her position as one of Latin music's most influential female voices.
