Pop star Meghan Trainor has found herself unexpectedly swept into a whirlwind of online chatter surrounding rumored tension between Ashley Tisdale and Hilary Duff. As fans and social media detectives speculated about a possible fallout inside a tight-knit Hilary Duff. As fans and social media detectives speculated about a possible fallout inside a tight-knit celebrity mom circle, Trainor decided to address the noise in the most on-brand way possible — with humor and a dash of sass.
In a TikTok posted on Thursday, January 8, the Grammy winner shared a playful video of herself furiously typing on a computer while looking utterly baffled. She captioned the clip, “me finding out about the apparent mom group drama,” and cleverly set it to her own song, “Still Don’t Care.” To drive the joke home, she also added the hashtag “#stilldontcare,” making it clear she wasn’t losing any sleep over the online speculation.
This lighthearted response quickly gained traction, becoming a viral moment that perfectly captured Meghan Trainor Weighs In on the Ashley Tisdale–Hilary Duff Mom Group Controversy With a Cheeky Clip — without actually taking sides or fueling the fire.
Where the Drama Started
The buzz began after Ashley Tisdale, writing under her married name Ashley French, published a personal essay about leaving what she described as a “toxic” mom group. In the piece, she opened up about feeling excluded and compared the experience to being left out in high school, explaining that she wanted to model self-respect and confidence for her daughters.
Soon after the essay was released, internet sleuths went to work. Old photos resurfaced showing Tisdale spending time with Hilary Duff, Meghan Trainor, Mandy Moore, and several other celebrity moms. This led many to assume that the op-ed was about that very group, even though Tisdale’s representatives reportedly denied the claim.
Adding more fuel to the chatter, Hilary Duff’s husband, Matthew Koma, posted a tongue-in-cheek parody of the essay’s cover image. His mock headline jokingly took a swipe at the situation, suggesting that some parents were more focused on themselves than on their toddlers.
Meghan’s Take: Light, Funny, and Unbothered
Rather than addressing the speculation directly, Trainor’s TikTok did all the talking. By poking fun at how she “found out” about the so-called drama, she made it clear that she wasn’t emotionally invested in the gossip swirling around her name.
In true Meghan fashion, she kept things playful, reminding fans that not every viral rumor deserves a serious response. And for now, it seems she’s content to let the internet keep talking — while she keeps singing “Still Don’t Care.”
Despite all the drama, Trainor is focused on releasing her new album, Toy With Me, in April. “Still Don’t Care” serves as the lead single.
