Meghan Trainor, born on December 22, 1993, is an American singer, songwriter, and TV personality. She gained fame in 2014 with her debut single, "All About That Bass," which topped the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and sold 11 million copies globally. Since then, Trainor has released six studio albums with Epic Records, earning accolades like a Grammy, four ASCAP Pop Music Awards, and two Billboard Music Awards.
Trainor’s passion for music started early. By her teenage years, she wrote, recorded, and independently produced three acoustic albums: Meghan Trainor (2009), I'll Sing with You, and Only 17 (2010). Before her major-label debut, she wrote and produced songs for other artists. Her first big album, Title (2015), debuted at number one and featured hits like "Lips Are Movin" and "Like I'm Gonna Lose You." Her follow-up album, Thank You (2016), included the hit single "No" and peaked at number three.
In 2020, Trainor ventured into electronic dance music with her album Treat Myself and later released a festive record, A Very Trainor Christmas. She returned to her signature doo-wop and bubblegum pop style with Takin’ It Back (2022), featuring the viral hit "Made You Look", and Timeless (2024).
Her music often celebrates themes like empowerment, body positivity, and womanhood, though some lyrics have faced criticism for being perceived as antifeminist. Trainor’s style blends 1950s-inspired pop, R&B, doo-wop, and soul.
Outside music, Trainor voiced characters in animated films like Smurfs: The Lost Village (2017) and Playmobil: The Movie (2019). She also served as a judge on shows like The Four (2018), The Voice UK (2020), and Australian Idol (2023). Trainor remains a prominent figure in music and entertainment, known for her vibrant personality and retro-inspired sound.
