Meghan Trainor unrecognisable after weight loss transformation sparks huge fan debate

Meghan Trainor is unrecognisable according to fans after losing 60 pounds but the singer has now sparked fury after changing the lyrics to her body positive 'All About That Bass' track Meghan Trainor's remarkable weight loss transformation has sparked controversy online after the star edited the lyrics to her 2014 body positive hit 'All About That Bass' in a recent performance to reflect the changes she has made to her body. The 31-year-old American singer rose to fame in 2014, thanks to her hit track that promotes body empowerment and confidence. However, the mum-of-two now looks very different to the size she once was when she released the popular single. A clip of the slimmed down star singing at the iHeartRadio KIIS-FM Wango Tango gig, in Southern California on Monday May 10, has now gone viral as she noticeably changed the famous lyrics to her most popular tune. ‌ Meghan looked gorgeous in a pink diamante matching two piece set, having recently revealed that she has lost a whopping 60kg on her Mounjaro weight loss journey. However, she has sparked a fierce debate after the singer could be heard singing a different line in the first verse of the song to directly address her new body size and recent boob job. ‌ While the original lyric is: 'Yeah, it's pretty clear, I ain't no size two', the singer could be heard changing it to: 'Yeah, it's pretty clear, I got some new boobs.' And it's safe to say her fans are not happy about it. Meghan has openly admitted to using type 2 diabetes drug brand, Mounjaro to achieve her impressive weight loss goal. Fans raced to the comment section to have their say on the matter as the top comment, which has received over 239k likes, reads: "Big is beautiful until you're rich enough to change it" - story of the entertainment industry." Another social media user remarked: "I feel she just morally shouldn't perform this song anymore." A third person commented: "Her removing "I ain't no size 2" is insane." A fourth slammed the lyric change: "I remember when she called out skinny b**ches in this song." ‌ Somebody else questioned: "Is she qualified to sing this song anymore?" Another bluntly wrote: "There's no bass left. Ozempic took it all." ‌ Despite the large amount of criticism, Meghan's most loyal fans have backed her decision as one wrote: "Hating her for being big. Now hating her for being skinny! This just proves you can never fit society's prosomas! So do what you want, for you!" Someone else echoed: "God forbid a woman goes on a fitness journey to feel better about her body." A third chimed in: "She lost the bass. But she looks healthy and happy in her own skin and that is ALLLL that matters. Perioddd." ‌ Last month, Meghan received Billboard's Women in Music Hitmaker award and took to Instagram to upload some snaps from the glamorous night. In her post, she gave a special 'shoutout' to Mounjarno as 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,' Meghan. "I've worked with a dietician, made huge lifestyle changes, started exercising with a trainer, and yes, I used science and support (shoutout to Mounjaro!) to help me after my [second] pregnancy. And I'm so glad I did because I feel great." ‌ The I Made You Look also underwent a breast augmentation and lift earlier this year after revealing her plans to get the surgery done following the birth of two her children. She told People: "I think I was born with saggy boobs. I swear, they were always looking at the ground. So this is a big deal for me. I'm getting a boob job. I'm getting a lift." ‌ She added: "Listen, these don't make milk. So when I have more children, these don't make milk anyways. So it's time to lift my boobs, I'm so excited." Trainor previously told her fans on Instagram: "I've always struggled with loving my boobs before I got them done, because they were never even, were always sagging my whole life." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community! Meghan's husband, Spy Kids star Daryl Sabara, who she shares her two sons Barry and Bruce with, has also taken the type 2 diabetes drug Mounjaro to aid in his weight loss journey. During an episode of the couple's Workin' On It podcast, the Spy Kids actor explained: "We did 75 Hard after our son Riley was born and, man, did we crush." Meghan chimed in: "Then, we heard more and more of our friends - and even our doctors - were on Mounjaro and Ozempic.' She eventually decided to try Mounjaro due to there being less side effects."

Meghan Trainor faces mixed reactions after changing lyrics to ‘All About That Bass'

Meghan Trainor is drawing criticism and praise after changing the lyrics to her 2014 hit 'All About That Bass' to reference her recent breast surgery. During a headline performance at iHeartRadio's KIIS-FM Wango Tango event, the 31-year-old singer updated the original line 'Yeah, it's pretty clear, I ain't no size two' to 'Yeah, it's pretty clear, I got some new boobs,' as seen in a video shared by @1027kiisfm on TikTok. Some fans viewed the change as contradicting the song's original message of body positivity. One user commented, 'Big is beautiful until you're rich enough to change it,' while another said, 'Her singing this song is peak irony.' Others argued she no longer represents the anthem's intent. However, many fans defended Trainor's decision, noting that body positivity includes making choices that support one's health. One commenter wrote, 'She made the song to stop shame, not to shame change.' Another added that Trainor has grown, started a family, and is focusing on personal well-being. Trainor, who shares two sons with husband Daryl Sabara, has previously spoken about her physical transformation, crediting the diabetes drug Mounjaro, lifestyle changes, and regular training after giving birth to her second child. In April, she addressed criticism on Instagram following her appearance at the Billboard Women in Music 2025 ceremony, where she was honoured with the Hitmaker Award. 'No, I don't look like I did 10 years ago,' she wrote. 'I've been on a journey to be the healthiest, strongest version of myself... and I'm so glad I did because I feel great.'

Meghan Trainor faces backlash for changing 'All About That Bass' lyric amid weight loss transformation: 'I miss when you didn't look exactly like everyone else'

Meghan Trainor is facing backlash after changing a beloved lyric. At iHeartRadio's KIIS-FM Wango Tango in Huntington Beach, Calif., on Saturday, Trainor performed a series of tracks, including her 2014 breakthrough single, 'All About That Bass,' in which she sings about embracing her own body, while encouraging others to do the same. A 29-second video posted by the official 102.7 KIIS FM TikTok account shows Trainor performing the famed track, which hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2014. As the first verse kicks in, Trainor, in a hot pink, rhinestone-encrusted two-piece, sings, 'Yeah, it's pretty clear, I got some new boobs/But I can shake it, shake it, like I'm supposed to do.' The original lyric, 'Yeah it's pretty clear, I ain't no size two,' was apparently swapped out to reflect recent changes to Trainor's body, including a breast augmentation as well as substantial weight loss — and some fans appear to be disappointed by this decision. On Trainor's Instagram post celebrating her Wango Tango performance, one fan wrote, 'You're stunning, but I miss when you didn't look exactly like everyone else in Hollywood and you were about the bass.' Another said, 'Beautiful but I really loved when you represented girls who can't look like every other basic model.' Referencing the song's wordplay in the chorus — 'Because you know I'm all about that bass/'Bout that bass, no treble' — one person declared that they were unfollowing Trainor as a result of the lyric change, commenting, 'No bass, all treble. Unfollowed.' Since its release, 'All About That Bass' has been the subject of scrutiny, with some critics praising the track's overarching message as being uplifting — and others believing it offers an unfair critique of people's bodies. Trainor, aware of the criticism, previously said that she never intended to body shame smaller women. 'Even with some of the 'hate' comments I've seen, they've gotten the conversation going,' the singer told Billboard in 2014. 'But, I'm not bashing skinny girls. Some girls have commented, 'I'm a size zero, so you must hate me.' But that's not it at all! There have been battles on my YouTube page, like, 'You don't know what she's talking about. She's actually saying, 'I know even you skinny girls struggle.' And that's exactly how I feel.' Trainor, who cowrote the track with songwriter Kevin Kadish, has also said that the song's message is just as much for her as it is for other women who struggle to love their own bodies. 'I wrote it for me, as well, because I've struggled with [body image] since I was very young,' she said in the 2014 interview. 'So, if other girls can relate to the song, it makes me feel even better. It's unreal that I'm kind of helping people.' The 'Whoops' singer embarked on her weight loss journey in 2021, after giving birth to her first son, Riley, whom she shares with her husband, Spy Kids star Daryl Sabara. Trainor told Entertainment Tonight Canada in 2022 that she was in 'a really dark place' due to being the heaviest she's ever been, which prompted her to lose 60 pounds 'the healthy way.' Coupled with working out daily with her personal trainer, Rebecca Stanton, the mom of two said she adopted healthy food habits and learned how to exercise portion control. In an Instagram post from March, Trainor reflected on the 'disheartening' comments she's received about her changing body. 'This is what it's like to be a woman in the music industry,' she wrote, before revealing that she's also using a GLP-1 medication. 'No, I don't look like I did 10 years ago,' she wrote. 'I've been on a journey to be the healthiest, strongest version of myself for my kids and for me. I've worked with a dietician, made huge lifestyle changes, started exercising with a trainer, and yes, I used science and support (shoutout to Mounjaro!) to help me after my second pregnancy.' Added Trainor, 'And I'm so glad I did because I feel great.'
