Meghan Trainor has posted another TikTok denying her involvement in the rumored “toxic” mom group drama. The 32-year-old singer is clapping back after recent speculation that she was among several celebrity moms who were a part of a “toxic” group of friends. The drama began when Ashley Tisdale published an essay for The Cut in which she spoke out about her decision to “break up” with a former friend group.

While Tisdale didn’t name names in the essay, many speculated that she was referring to Trainor, as well as other big-name stars like Hilary Duff and Mandy Moore. Tisdale appears to have cut ties with these former friends with whom she was previously often pictured.

The actress spoke about experiencing “mean girl” behavior while she was a part of the group, eventually leading her to separate from her former friends altogether.

“This is too high school for me, and I don’t want to take part in it anymore,” she wrote.

In a TikTok posted on Monday, January 12, Trainor posted a video of herself mouthing the words, “Come on, you have to believe me! Please. You have to believe me! No, you have to.” Over the top of the video, she included the words, “Me still trying to convince everyone I’m not involved in the mom group drama.”

“I swear I’m innocent,” she captioned the post.

Trainor first addressed the drama in another TikTok from January 8. In that post, she included a video of herself looking at her computer with a confused expression on her face. Over top of the video were the words, “Me finding out about the apparent mom group drama.”

She linked her own song, “Still Don’t Care,” to the post, clearly sending a message that she has no desire to be a part of the drama.
