Meghan Trainor addresses Ashley Tisdale’s ‘toxic mom group’ essay

Meghan Trainor has weighed in with a savage TikTok

Meghan Trainor is the latest celeb to break her silence on the whole 'toxic mom group' drama.

For those who have no idea what we're talking about, essentially it all started when High School Musical actress Ashley Tisdale, 40, wrote an essay in The Cut on New Year's Day, where she talked about 'breaking up with' a group of 'toxic moms' who she claims excluded her and made her feel like she was 'in high school'.

She didn't name anyone, but explains how she became friends with the group after the birth of her first daughter, Jupiter Iris French, in March 2021.

However, Tisdale wrote that things began to go downhill when she started being excluded from meet-ups that she was seeing on Instagram and eventually left the group chat in dramatic fashion, after the 'group dynamic stopped being healthy and positive.'

She never mentioned who exactly was involved, but self-appointed internet detectives were on the case and claimed it must have been about a celebrity mom group she was previously in, which included the likes of Trainor, Hilary Duff and Mandy Moore.

But Tisdale's rep has firmly denied these rumours in a statement, claiming that 'there’s zero truth to what online "detectives" think they’ve cracked' and the essay is actually about a 'completely different group of friends'.

And things got even more confusing when Hilary Duff's husband, Matthew Koma, publicly weighed in online by posting a mock version of her photoshoot and article from The Cut on Instagram.

He wrote: "A Mom Group Tell All Through A Father's Eyes. When You're The Most Self Obsessed Tone Deaf Person On Earth, Other Moms Tend To Shift Their Focus To Their Actual Toddlers." Brutal.

Koma even recreated her exact image from the magazine by striking a similar pose and putting his hand on his face.

And now, Trainor just posted a TikTok seemingly addressing the situation.

On Thursday (8 January) she posted a video to her 18.6 million followers which showed her typing on a keyboard and looking at her computer screen with an animated expression.

She wrote on the screen: "Me finding out about the apparent mom group drama".

The singer, 32, added her song 'Still Don’t Care' in the background, specifically the lyrics: “Let me take a moment think it over, doesn’t touch me at all. I still don't care. Let me check again, nope, I still don't care.”

She also added three tea emojis in the caption for good measure, as well as the hashtag '#stilldontcare'.

Her response has prompted fans to get involved and comment whose side they're on amid the ongoing parenting drama, with one TikToker writing: "This proves Ashley’s point."

A second agreed: "This reaction, Hilarys hubby's reaction & Mandys reaction is giving high school. Ashley was right."

However, a third argued: "So they’re not allowed to respond to being blasted??"

And a fourth penned: "Everyone saying “this makes me believe Ashley”… Ashley didn’t ever have to make it public. This could’ve stayed between the friends. That makes me NOT believe Ashley."

Tyla has contacted a rep for Trainor for comment.
