Alix Earle plays Benson Boone’s romantic interest in his new music video for “The Time of My Life,” a backstage-to-stage theatrical story packed with steamy moments—and sparked dating chatter after they were spotted together in Los Angeles.
Alix Earle and Benson Boone don’t just share the screen in “The Time of My Life” — the new music video drops them into a theatrical romance where the feelings burn, then the curtain falls.
Earle. 25. stars as Boone’s love interest in the video for his new single. and the production leans into the kind of onstage chemistry that almost dares viewers to wonder what’s real. The pair also stoked dating rumors last week after they were spotted out for dinner together in Los Angeles. The timing, though, appears to line up with the music-video moment they were building.
Boone’s song unfolds like a show in motion. beginning backstage as he’s getting ready for the performance and Earle is woven into the storyline. In the opening moments. Alix asks. “will she be here?” The video cuts to an empty reserved seat in the audience. setting the tone before Boone steps onto the stage.
As the performance begins, the narrative flashes back to memories of Boone’s former partner. During the first verse, he sings, “I am having the time of my life/ And I wish that you were still right here/ I wish you came along / You, why did you leave me so soon?”
Earle’s character is positioned at the center of the theatrical romance. playing the romantic interest while Boone eventually leaves her at the alter and runs to find his former partner. But when he realizes the relationship is finished, the song turns into resignation. In the outro. he sings. “This isn’t real life. this isn’t over. dear (Oh. oh) / It can’t be over. dear.”.
The video doesn’t end on heartbreak. It closes with Boone giving Earle a kiss at the end of the performance, sealing the theatrical storyline with a final, intimate beat as the credits roll.
Boone, the 23-year-old “Beautiful Things” singer, is starring in the theatrical production alongside Earle, and the video’s structure makes their duet feel less like a pop moment and more like a staged romance that spills into reality — at least for the length of the show.

So are they dating for real or is it just promo lol
The reserved seat thing?? That’s so dramatic, like okay Broadway energy. Also they were spotted in LA so I’m just gonna assume something’s going on.
Wait he leaves her at the alter and then kisses her at the end? That’s confusing… like is she the “former partner” or not? Kinda sounds like the song is about cheating or something but maybe I missed it.
Everyone saying it’s steamy but it’s literally a music video with a kiss, people act like it’s proof 😂. They probably just cast Alix because she’s famous and the dating rumors come with the package. Also why is she asking “will she be here” like the former partner is in the audience?? I’m lost but I’m invested.
