Meghan Trainor has upset some fans by changing the lyrics of her body-positive hit “All About That Bass” during a recent performance. The singer replaced the original line “I ain’t no size two” with “I got some new boobs,” referencing her recent breast augmentation. This comes after she openly discussed using the weight-loss drug Mounjaro following her second pregnancy.
The song, released in 2014, was praised for promoting self-love and body confidence. Many fans connected with its message, especially those who felt underrepresented in mainstream media. Trainor’s decision to alter the lyrics has sparked debates about body positivity, celebrity influence, and personal choice.
At the iHeartRadio Wango Tango event on May 10, Trainor performed the updated version while wearing a sparkly pink outfit. Videos of the performance spread quickly online, with mixed reactions. Some fans defended her right to change, while others called it hypocritical given the song’s original message.
Trainor has been open about her physical transformation. In April, she shared on Instagram that she used Mounjaro, worked with a dietitian, and trained with a fitness expert to lose weight after her second pregnancy. She also underwent breast surgery earlier this year, calling it “the best decision” for her confidence.
The original lyrics of “All About That Bass” faced criticism when the song first came out. Some argued that while it celebrated curvy bodies, it unintentionally shamed thinner women. Trainor has denied this, saying the song was meant to uplift all body types.
Fans online are divided. Some feel disappointed that Trainor, who once represented body diversity, now looks more like a typical Hollywood star. Others argue that people change, and her choices should be respected.
“Big is beautiful until you’re rich enough to change it. Story of the entertainment industry.”
“She has every right to change, but her body was relatable before. Now it doesn’t hit the same.”
“There’s no bass left. Ozempic took it all.”
Trainor responded to criticism in a recent Instagram post. She said the focus on her body instead of her music is frustrating. “This is what it’s like to be a woman in the music industry,” she wrote. She emphasized her health journey and doing what makes her feel strong.
The singer has two children with her husband, Daryl Sabara. She has spoken about struggling with body image after pregnancies and breastfeeding. Her decision to get breast implants was partly due to sagging she experienced post-pregnancy.
Some supporters say the backlash is unfair. They argue that body positivity should include all choices, including weight loss and cosmetic procedures.
“All about that bass was released 10 years ago. God forbid a woman’s body changes in that time!”
“She looks healthy and happy in her own skin. That’s all that matters.”
Others believe the lyric change undermines the song’s original intent. They say the track was meaningful because it celebrated natural bodies without surgery or extreme dieting.
Trainor’s case highlights a larger debate in body positivity movements. Can celebrities promote self-love while also altering their appearance? Does using weight-loss drugs or surgery contradict messages of body acceptance?
