The new 5 Seconds of Summer music video was definitely unforgettable. Full of color, characters, and clues to a deeper meaning of the song we’re sure. The band has been pretty cryptic lately, especially ahead of the release of this new video.

Drummer, Ashton Irwin, made everything even more mystifying when he posted this on twitter.

This captionless post sent the 5SOS Fam into a frenzy of theories, picking apart each piece of the video to understand the meaning and how it could possibly relate to these four pictures. And we have found some of the wildest ones on Twitter.
Some Fans Think the No Shame Video is About the Entertainment Industry and Being a Celebrity
Like this ones comparing the angel mentioned in the song to the music industry controlling things.
NO SHAME music video is all about the music industry.

Many also agree it could be about the “expectation fame has put on them.”
NO SHAME MV THEORY:
so, i think that each boy represents an expectation fame has put on them. for example, calum represents the pressure that has been put on him to get into a relationship (hence the girl + family), luke is a metaphor for the media killing them mentally with-

Continuing With the Theories on Fame, Some in the Fandom Perceive it to Be About Living in the Spotlight
Could it be about how some will do whatever is necessary to have the spotlight on them?
i saw a yt comment on the no shame lyric vid that said no shame is not about loving your fans, but instead about how when you’re famous, you’ll do anything to have the spotlight on you. this… is genuinely my favourite thing. so, MV THEORY THREAD!!! 🤩🤩🤩

Or doing dumb things like Logan Paul “to get a reaction. “
y’all know about the theories of how tupac and elvis “faked” their deaths ?? luke faked his in the mv. “digging my grave to get a reaction”. logan paul does stupid shit to make the internet mad, to also get a reaction. they have NO SHAME. the guys thought all of this through https://t.co/4OQuSXVyBC

Fans Are Even Beginning to Link Previous 5SOS Videos Together
Like the ‘No Shame’ video being linked to the ‘Lie to Me’ video.
OKAY I HAVE A THEORY ABOUT THE NO SHAME MV MAYBE IT IS CONNECTED WITH THE LIE TO ME MV LIKE THAT CAR WAS DISTROYED AND LIEK WAS IN IT SO HE IS DEATH pic.twitter.com/dGL5PXcfw2

And this theory connecting it to the lyrics in ‘Easier.’
theory: calum's wife is cheating on him with luke. as we can see in the no shame music video, calum is married to this woman and they have 2 children. casually the 2 children look a lot like luke and nothing like him…. pic.twitter.com/L5DdZE0GbL
