Meghan Trainor is hitting back at the criticism surrounding her recent 60-pound weight loss.

The 31-year-old “All About That Bass” artist shared with Entertainment Tonight on Thursday, November 13, that her latest track, “Still Don’t Care,” serves as a response to the public’s intense focus on her physical transformation.

“For the first time ever, especially after becoming a mom, I’ve prioritized my health like never before. I’ve never felt better, and I think I look amazing,” Trainor explained. “Yet, that’s when people choose to criticize me.”

She added, “I found myself thinking, ‘Hold on, I’m doing this for my well-being. If that’s not okay with you, what do you expect me to do?’ I had to find a way to not let it get to me.”

Meghan Trainor’s evolution has once again become a talking point following her appearance on the red carpet at Peacock’s The Paper premiere. For the Grammy winner, however, this journey is about more than just aesthetics; it’s about feeling her best and starting a new chapter in her life.

Trainor, who shares sons Riley, 4, and Barry, 2, with husband Daryl Sabara, previously opened up about using GLP-1 medication Mounjaro — the brand name for tirzepatide — to help her after giving birth to her second child in July 2023.

In March, the singer shared pictures of herself at Billboard’s Women in Music event on Instagram and said it was “a little bit disheartening that so many of the questions (and comments) were focused on my body instead of my music, my passion, or the decade of hard work that got me here.”

“This is what it’s like to be a woman in the music industry,” she wrote.

“No, I don’t look like I did 10 years ago. I’ve been on a journey to be the healthiest, strongest version of myself for my kids and for me,” Trainor explained. “I’ve worked with a dietician, made huge lifestyle changes, started exercising with a trainer, and yes, I used science and support (shout-out to Mounjaro!) to help me after my 2nd pregnancy. And I’m so glad I did because I feel great.”

Meghan Trainor is shutting down red carpets with her new look. The 31-year-old singer showed off her transformation while attending Peacock’s The Paper premiere in Los Angeles on Wednesday, August 27. Trainor opted for a black-and-white shorts set paired with tights and kitten heels. She completed the look with her blonde hair pulled into an […]

During an April episode of her and Sabara’s “Workin’ On It” podcast, the married couple opened up about taking Mounjaro together, explaining that they “do everything together.”

“We did 75 Hard after Riley was born and, man, did we crush,” Trainor said. “Then, we heard more and more of our friends — and even our doctors — were on Mounjaro and Ozempic.”

She continued, “I was like, ‘I don’t want any of that,’ and ‘I know how to do it on my own,’” she explained. “I could do that, but when I asked my doctor, I was like, ‘Tell me everything.’ I did the research, and I felt safe.”

Sabara, 33, then added, “So, I did it, too.”

Ozempic has become a hot topic when it comes to weight loss — with some stars confirming they have used the drug while others denied it. Chelsea Handler admitted during a January 2023 episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast that she unknowingly took the Type 2 diabetes medication, which is traditionally used to improve […]

“I also gained some [sympathy] pregnancy weight,” the actor said. “We’ve been on this journey for a while and we learned how there are right ways to do it.”

Trainer said she has “no shame” about taking the GLP-1 medication, adding, “We were like, ‘We have to make sure we don’t lose muscle that we worked so hard gaining all those years.’ We stay in the gym, we work out, we eat right, and we just noticed that we were less hungry.”

“I’m really proud of myself for learning. It was really hard to do and I’m going to keep getting better and keep getting stronger, achieve things I never thought I could achieve and no one can stop me — not even mean comments,” Trainor said.
