- Meghan Trainor Changes The Lyrics To ‘All About That Bass’ After Admitting To Taking Weight Loss Drugs As Fans React: ‘Unfortunate’ (shefinds.com)
Pop star Meghan Trainor recently sparked controversy after altering a lyric in her hit song “All About That Bass” during a performance at the Wango Tango concert in Huntington Beach, California. The singer, known for her body-positive anthem, has undergone a significant weight transformation in the past year, attributing it to a combination of diet, exercise, and the medication Mounjaro.
Trainor’s weight loss journey has been a public affair, with the singer openly discussing her use of Mounjaro and a recent breast augmentation on social media. While many fans have praised her for taking control of her health, others have expressed concern over the change in her message.
During her Wango Tango performance, Trainor swapped the lyric “Yeah, it’s pretty clear, I ain’t no size two” with a joke referencing her breast augmentation. This alteration, in a song celebrated for its embrace of diverse body shapes, drew criticism online. Some fans felt the change undermined the song’s original message of body positivity.
Social media responses ranged from disappointment to disapproval. One fan commented, “She looks amazing, and I love her, but yeah, [it’s] unfortunate about the lyric change.”
Another added, “[It] kind of ruins the whole point of the song.” While some fans continue to support Trainor, the lyric change has undoubtedly sparked a debate about the singer’s evolving image and its impact on her message.
Trainor has yet to publicly address the criticism.
