Meghan Trainor recently left fans divided after she changed a lyric in one of her most popular songs following her Mounjaro-aided weight loss.
The 31-year-old singer has been candid about losing weight via medical intervention, using the drug - which has traditionally been used to treat Type 2 diabetes - as a weight management tool.
Sharing details of her weight loss journey on Instagram, Meghan revealed that she wanted to become a healthier version of herself for her children's sake.

And her new look is likely the reason she changed one of the lyrics while performing her 2014 body positivity anthem 'All About That Bass'.
During her performance at iHeartRadio’s Wango Tango, she changed a notable line from "It’s pretty clear, I ain’t no size two" to "It’s pretty clear, I got some new boobs."
And it's left people torn.

One person wrote online: "I can only imagine how hard it would be for people who connected with her early in her career because she was body positive to see her succumb to Ozempic."
And another wrote: "As someone who was not a size 2 when I first heard this song when I was like 13, for her to change the lyrics just feels hypocritical to me? Like I’m glad she feels good in her body and you know taking ozempic helped her do that but like…man idk."

She wrote: "Feeling so honoured to be recognised by @billboard Women in Music as a Hitmaker - what a dream!
"But it’s a little disheartening that so many of the questions (and comments) were focused on my body instead of my music, my passion, or the decade of hard work that got me here.
"This is what it’s like to be a woman in the music industry."

Meghan, who's mum to Riley, four, and Barry, 21 months, added: "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.
"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 2nd pregnancy.
"And I’m so glad I did because I feel great. Here’s to celebrating talent, growth, and the power of putting yourself first. Let’s keep shifting the convo to what REALLY matters. With love."
How does Mounjaro help you lose weight?
Alongside Ozempic, Type 2 diabetes drug, Mounjaro, is often used to aid weight loss.

When taken by somebody who doesn't have diabetes, Mounjaro works to enhance insulin secretion but lowers glucagon secretion to lower a person’s blood sugar levels and also limits people’s appetite.
Amy Schumer, Gemma Collins and Jeremy Clarkson have all opened up about using Mounjaro.
