Meghan Trainor once again commented on the ongoing “toxic” mom group drama related to Ashley Tisdale French’s controversial personal essay in The Cut.
Traynor, 32, shared a TikTok video on Monday, January 12th. In it, she lip-syncs a popular scene from Season 5 of Stranger Things, in which Holly Wheeler (Nell Fisher) tries to convince a group of kids that her imaginary friend Mr. Watshit is really a monster. “Come on, you have to believe in me! Please, you have to believe in me, you have to believe in me,” the voice says.
“I’m still trying to convince everyone I’m not in on the mom group drama,” the “Still Don’t Care” singer wrote in the video.
“I swear I’m innocent,” she added in the caption.
Trainor previously commented on allegations of “toxic” mom groups. On January 8, the singer shared a video on her TikTok about the uproar following Tisdale French’s op-ed for The Cut about “toxic” mom groups. Traynor, who is said to be a member of the Phineas and Ferb star’s former friend circle, joked about the moment he found out about the drama.

“Obviously I just found out about the mom friend group drama,” Traynor wrote on a video that included a clip of her sitting at a computer. The mother-of-two was seen typing away, staring animatedly at the screen, looking shocked. The video was set to her new single “Still Don’t Care” from her upcoming album Toys With Me, which will be released on April 24th.
Later, Trainor’s husband Daryl Sabara denied there was any drama between his wife and Tisdale French.
The Spy Kids alum, 33, said in an interview with TMZ that there is no feud between Tisdale-French and Trainor, adding that the couple is instead trying to focus on their two children, Barry, 2, and Riley, 4 1/2.
“There’s no drama here, we’re just trying to make the kids happy, you know?” Sabara told TMZ.
Father-of-two Tisdale-French also said he hoped she was doing well after an essay about leaving a “toxic” mothers group took the internet by storm.

“I really don’t know what’s going on,” he said. “But I hope (Tisdale-French) is OK.”
In her essay, Tisdale-French, 40, anonymously named the women in her former friend group, instead framing the experience as a powerful reminder to anyone that it’s okay to walk away from relationships that are no longer healthy.
“If a mom group always leaves you feeling hurt, exhausted, or left out, it’s not the mom group for you,” Tisdale-French wrote. “Choosing distance doesn’t mean being mean or critical; it allows you to be true to yourself. It’s also worth remembering that, like all relationships, friendships have seasons.”
