Paris Paloma has teamed up with Emma Thompson for her new misogyny-skewering single ‘Good Boy’

Paris Paloma has released a new single, ‘Good Boy’, featuring actor Emma Thompson, and shared an official video starring Tom Blyth.

Paris and Emma Thompson first met while working on Lord of the Rings: War of the Rohirrim, reconnecting when Emma attended Paris’s sold-out Shepherd’s Bush Empire show. The track opens with journalist Rebecca Shaw’s viral headline, voiced by Thompson.

The video, directed by Georgie Cowan-Turner, presents a satirical depiction of patriarchal and misogynistic structures in the workplace, with Paris appearing both as herself and as an allegorical embodiment of the patriarchy.

“’Good Boy’ is a message to men that you have more in common with me, more in common with everyday women, than you do with men in power pushing capitalist patriarchy; so don’t be their good boy. Any knee-jerk reaction to women criticising and working against patriarchy, by calling women ‘man haters’, bites off your own nose, and upholds a system that isolates and betrays you, cutting you off from community and love. You won’t be rewarded by those in power for upholding a system that harms you and benefits them. You’ll get nothing, not even so much as a ‘good boy,’,” Paris says.

‘Good Boy’ follows Paris Paloma’s 2024 debut album, ‘Cacophony’.

Paris Paloma is confirmed as a special guest for Florence + The Machine’s UK and EU arena tour in early 2026.
