The singer shared on her Workin’ On It podcast how she's no longer able to smile after getting "too much Botox" in her upper lip as part of a "lip flip" procedure.

Meghan Trainor recently shared her disappointing experience with Botox during an episode of her podcast Workin’ On It, which she co-hosts with her brother, Ryan Trainor.

Speaking candidly, Trainor revealed she underwent a Botox “lip flip” procedure to enhance her upper lip, but the results left her with unexpected challenges.


The Cleveland Clinic warns that lip flips can sometimes result in drooling or difficulty speaking if Botox is injected too close to the mouth.

“I got too much Botox, and I need help,” the All About That Bass singer admitted.

She explained that the procedure, designed to relax the upper lip for a fuller appearance, instead left her unable to move her face properly.

“To all my fellow girlies out there who are in your 30s out there, hi. I got too much Botox, and I need help… Someone convinced me with my little lips that – if you did a lip flip [and] you put filler right above your upper lip – you could have a beautiful flip on your upper lip and I could have one for the first time in my whole 30 years of living. It was not true.”

Trainor said the experience made her appreciate how much her smile contributes to her personality and presence.

“I cannot smile anymore,” she said, describing the impact on her confidence, adding that her usual bright smile is now a “dim light.”

“I cannot smile anymore. Everywhere I go, I cannot smile.”

People said she should have listened to her own songs.


Some were shocked at how young she was to be using Botox in the first place.

But others said they did “preventative” Botox as early as their twenties.

The procedure Trainor had uses Botox, not filler.


At least this state is temporary.



People lamented the fact that folks were feeling pressured to get these sorts of procedures done.

We already knew that ChatGPT could be a problem regarding critical thinking and creativity, so maybe we should have anticipated the mindsets that would develop, snubbing independent thinking when tools like ChatGPT are available.

Republicans Slammed For Soulless One-Word Response To Democrats' Trans Day Of Visibility Tweet

According to research by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, transgender people in the United States were over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime based on statistics from 2017-2018. A study by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety found the number of trans people murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017and 2021.

In the last 5–9 years, those figures have only increased as the Republican Party has made trans people the target of many of their political campaigns and legislative actions.
