Meghan Trainor responds to Ashley Tisdale’s takedown of a toxic mom group—and the internet is paying close attention.
Meghan Trainor is officially weighing in on the mom-group controversy that’s been making waves online. The pop star subtly reacted to the buzz surrounding Ashley Tisdale French’s recent essay, which detailed her decision to walk away from what she described as a “toxic” mom circle.
Meghan Trainor’s TikTok Reaction Sparks Conversation
On Thursday, the “All About That Bass” singer posted a TikTok video that quickly caught fans’ attention. In the clip, Trainor is seen sitting at her computer, wide-eyed and dramatically typing while sipping tea—clearly signaling she was tuned into the drama.
Text over the video read, “Me finding out about the apparent mom group drama,” while the caption featured tea cup emojis and the phrase “#stilldontcare.” The video was set to her latest single, “Still Don’t Care,” making the response feel both playful and pointed.
Why Fans Think Trainor Is Involved
Trainor, a mom of two boys, is believed to be part of a high-profile mom friend group that fans suspect Ashley Tisdale French referenced in her essay for The Cut. The rumored group reportedly includes other famous moms like Hilary Duff and Mandy Moore.
That said, Tisdale French never named names. In fact, she made a point to keep the identities of the moms anonymous and warned “wannabe online sleuths” not to speculate. She emphasized that assumptions floating around online were “not even close” to the truth.
Inside Ashley Tisdale French’s Essay
In her personal piece titled “Breaking Up With My Toxic Mom Group,” Tisdale French opened up about her experience navigating motherhood friendships. After welcoming her first child, she said she deeply craved connection and initially felt like she had “found her village” among fellow moms.
However, those feelings didn’t last. She wrote about being repeatedly excluded from group gatherings and discovering outings through social media, which stirred up old insecurities.
“One night, after putting my daughter to bed, I sat there thinking, Maybe I’m not cool enough?” she wrote, explaining how the situation made her feel like she was back in high school.
Ultimately, Tisdale French decided to step away, saying the friendships had stopped being “healthy and positive.” While she clarified that she didn’t think the moms were bad people, she added a pointed aside: “Maybe one.”
Hilary Duff’s Husband Adds Fuel to the Fire
The drama didn’t stop there. Hilary Duff’s husband, musician Matthew Koma, also appeared to weigh in—this time with satire. He shared a parody image on Instagram Stories, digitally placing his face onto Tisdale French’s promotional photo from The Cut essay.
The mock headline read: “When You’re The Most Self Obsessed Tone Deaf Person On Earth, Other Moms Tend To Shift Focus To Their Actual Toddlers.” The post quickly circulated, adding another layer to the already buzzing conversation.
Neither Duff nor Trainor were mentioned by name in the essay.
Silence From All Sides—for Now
So far, representatives for Meghan Trainor, Ashley Tisdale French, Hilary Duff, and Matthew Koma have not issued official statements in response to the growing media attention.
Still, with TikTok reactions, parody posts, and fan speculation running wild, one thing is clear: Meghan Trainor responds to Ashley Tisdale’s takedown of a toxic mom group in her own signature style—subtle, sarcastic, and impossible to ignore.
