Tori Rose Turns Up the Sass in Hilarious “If Drinking Was a Sport” Music Video (Premiere)

For Tori Rose, country music is more than a genre—it’s a way of life. Raised along the Monongahela River in southwestern Pennsylvania, she fell in love with country music while spending her childhood summers cruising the water on her family boat. With a passion for both traditional and contemporary country, she grew up idolizing icons like Dolly Parton and Hank Williams Jr., alongside modern legends like Carrie Underwood and Little Big Town.

Her talent was evident early on. By six, Tori was already taking piano, ukulele, and guitar lessons, adding vocal lessons to her repertoire by age 13. She honed her craft through school performances, talent shows, and musicals, leading to her professional debut at just 12 years old when she performed at Pittsburgh’s Hard Rock Café and later sang the National Anthem at the Monster Truck Jam in PPG Paints Arena.

Since then, her star has only risen. Tori has performed at notable festivals and venues such as Disney Springs, Live Oak in Nashville, and Ole Red Orlando, where she won the Battle of the Bands in 2021. She’s also opened for country legends Aaron Tippin and Trace Adkins. Now 19 and based in Nashville, Tori is making her mark with her sharp songwriting, crisp twang, and authentic storytelling with her latest song “If Drinking Was A Sport.” While the song officially drops tomorrow (January 24), Celeb Secrets has a first look at the track and its fun visual a few hours early to tide you over with an exclusive premiere.

“If Drinking Was a Sport” is much more than just a fun drinking anthem—it’s a clever, sarcastic track born out of personal experience. Tori shared with Celeb Secrets how the idea came to life:

“Randomly one day I came up with the hook of the song and instantly wrote it down in my notes. I knew that I wanted it to be a funny, sarcastic song, but I couldn’t get any lyrics or melody to really flow that day. Soon after that, I found out that a guy I dated thought ‘Your Loss’ was about him (it 100% wasn’t), and he then went on to say some not-so-nice things about me. At that point, I said to myself, well if he really wants a song about him, then I’ll write one. And I swear to you I was so fired up that day that all of the lyrics just started flowing!”

The music video for “If Drinking Was a Sport” is as sharp and playful as the song itself. Tori and her team leaned into the humor, creating a storyline centered around “that one guy everyone knows at the bar who is constantly trying to outdrink everyone else.”

“This song is very simple and straight to the point, so my team and I decided that’s exactly what the video should be. One of our main focuses was making sure it was funny and related to the sarcastic lyrics in the song,” Tori described the vision.

From laugh-inducing drinking game scenes to Tori’s commanding on-screen presence, the video is packed with moments that will keep viewers smiling. Tori’s favorite memory from the shoot? “Definitely watching the rest of the cast act out the drinking game scenes. I was sitting off camera laughing so hard the entire shoot!” she told us.

However, the shoot wasn’t without its challenges—Tori revealed that the bar was “incredibly cold” during filming, making for an unexpectedly chilly production day.
