Meghan Trainor feels no regret using weight-loss drugs
Trainor, who has been married to Daryl since 2018, said on the 'Workin' On It' podcast: "We heard more and more of our friends - and even our doctors - were on Mounjaro and Ozempic."
The singer and Daryl decided to try the medication after learning that it has "less side effects" than other weight-loss drugs, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
The "Dear Future Husband' hitmaker quipped: "Daryl and I both do everything together."
Despite this, the singer stressed that it wasn't an easy fix, explaining that she still needed to work hard in the gym in order to lose weight.
She said: "We were like, 'We have to make sure we don't lose muscle that we worked so hard gaining all those years'. We stay in the gym, we work out, we eat right, and we just noticed that we were less hungry."
She had previously addressed her weight-loss after her slimmed-down appearance at the Billboard Women in Music event in March attracted attention.
She wrote on Instagram: "Feeling so honored to be recognized by @billboard Women in Music as a Hitmaker - what a dream!
"But it's a little disheartening that so many of the questions (and comments) were focused on my body instead of my music, my passion, or the decade of hard work that got me here. This is what it's like to be a woman in the music industry.
"No, I don't look like I did 10 years ago. I've been on a journey to be the healthiest, strongest version of myself for my kids and for me. I've worked with a dietician, made huge lifestyle changes, started exercising with a trainer, and yes, I used science and support (shoutout to Mounjaro!) to help me after my 2nd pregnancy. And I'm so glad I did because I feel great.
"Here's to celebrating talent, growth, and the power of putting yourself first. Let's keep shifting the convo to what REALLY matters. With love (sic)."

Rihanna on donning multiple hats in Smurfs: 'It was invigorating and exciting'
Singer and actress Rihanna has donned multiple hats in the upcoming movie "The Smurfs". Along with lending her voice to Smurfette, she is also the producer and musical head of the project. Shedding light on playing multiple roles in the drama, Rihanna called it equally thrilling and challenging. Speaking during the global promotions, the 'Battleship' actress talked about her experience of being a part of the movie. "It was invigorating and exciting for me to not only embody a character but also bring my musical life into the mix. We worked with music producers and choreographers whose work I admire. To put those two worlds together was a win-win for everyone. It pushed us all to challenge our artistry", Rihanna added. Rihanna (left) and A$AP Rocky pose for photographers. AP She further revealed that during her childhood in Barbados, "Smurfs" was a part of her routine. The 'Ocean's 8' actress went on to share, "So many mornings, I woke up long before I was supposed to get ready for school just to get that dose of Smurfs." Rihanna added that she has related a lot to the character of Smurfette and what she stands for. "First of all, I have always loved makeup and hair. We all know that. And she's an esthetician. She's also a powerful leader, independent, strong, beautiful, sassy, witty, and very empathetic. I was super-inspired by all of that. I think she loves music too and her favorite genres are hip-hop, reggae, Afrobeats, ballads, and house. That's Smurfette. She needs options," she said. From left: Producer Ryan Harris, Ramsey Naito, Rihanna, Hugo Miller, Laura Miller and director Chris Miller pose for photographers upon arrival at the world premiere of the film "Smurfs" in Brussels on Saturday. AP Rihanna took inspiration for her character from some real-life women, plucking little things from each of them. "They are all so different in personality, tone, and attitude, but I feel like these are the women who are with me daily. Smurfette needed to come from all of us," she concluded. "The Smurfs" will be reaching India on July 18th. The movie will be available in both English and Hindi. Indo-Asian News Service

Singer-actress Selena Gomez revealed to have a crush on rapper Ice Cube, when she was five. Appearing on a new episode of Complex's GOAT Talk, the 32-year-old actress, who is engaged to record producer Benny Blanco, said: 'Can I tell you my first one that I had a crush on, Ice Cube? I had the biggest crush on him when I was, like, five.' Gomez subsequently said why she was so infatuated with the rapper. She shared: 'It's so weird, but I just thought he would protect me. I'm only saying it simply based on my childhood.' Gomez actually listened to a lot of rap music during her younger years, and she was a huge fan of rapper Eminem at the time, too, reports She explained: 'One of (my favourite rappers) was Eminem only because I grew up listening to him. My dad was a DJ so he would remix all kinds of songs, and every time it was an Eminem song, I would just get so excited.' Gomez announced her engagement to Benny in December 2024, and she previously revealed that she feels 'so excited' about the prospect of having children. The singer said she would love to raise children with Benny one day. She said on the Jay Shetty Podcast: 'I don't know what will happen, obviously, but I love children. I have an 11-year-old sister that I absolutely adore. I love making (children) laugh; they're just so sweet. So absolutely, when that day comes, I'm so excited for it.' Gomez began her career as a child actress, appearing on the children's television series 'Barney and Friends' and emerged as a teen idol for her role in 'Wizards of Waverly Place.' She signed with Hollywood Records in 2008 and formed the band Selena Gomez and the Scene, which released three successful albums: 'Kiss and Tell,' 'A Year Without Rain,' and 'When the Sun Goes Down.' Meanwhile, Selena has come out in support of pop sensation Taylor Swift after the latter bought back her music following Scooter Braun drama. Recently the 'Only Murders in the Building' actress, 32, cheered on her fellow singer, 35, after it was revealed that Swift finally owns her masters, reports 'People' magazine. 'Yes you did that Tay', Selena Gomez wrote on her Instagram Story using all caps, adding, 'So proud!' Almost six years ago, her catalogue was sold to Braun, who then sold it to private equity firm Shamrock Capital. Swift's upload showed three photos of her sitting on the floor of a portrait studio, wearing a periwinkle top, denim jeans and her signature red lip as she smiled, surrounded by her first six albums. During the years long battle for ownership, the 'Love Story' singer famously re-recorded albums, adding 'Taylor's Version' to the titles. Selena has supported Swift since their friendship began more than a decade ago. The two singers were introduced by the Jonas Brothers in August 2008 and have been besties ever since.

Charlize shares what her daughters thought about her hairdo for ‘The Old Guard 2'
Hollywood actress Charlize Theron has shared what made her daughters terrified about her. The 49-year-old actress adopted the hairstyle for her part in the new movie 'The Old Guard 2' and it was something that didn't sit well with her daughters. The actress shared that her adopted daughters — Jackson, 12, and August, 9, were far from impressed with the look, reports 'Female First UK'. Charlize told the chat show Late Night with Seth Meyers, 'I have two girls, and they're very, very... they're mostly very girly. And they think of me as a princess. And they want Mom to look like a princess. But they came back from school. I was in my bathroom and I was getting it cut and it had already been coloured. And I just remember looking over and they both came into the room really excited, and then they just both froze. And they just went... and one started crying'. The Oscar-winning star shared, 'One literally started bawling their eyes out. And I had to actually sit down with her and say, 'We all get to be who we want to be. And right now, Mom wants to wear a mullet.' I don't tell you what to do with your hair'. Impersonating one of her children, Charlize added, 'I still don't like it'. As per 'Female First UK', The 'Mad Max: Fury Road' actress revealed last month that her children are unimpressed by her Hollywood career. During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Theron quipped, 'My children have zero respect for me. It's just unbelievable, I feel like I'm pretty humble, but every once in a while I'm like, 'There's a Oscar right there'. They are so not impressed with me'. Charlize recalled an incident when her youngest child unflatteringly compared her with Tom Cruise. She explained, 'I was picking up my youngest from dance yesterday and we drove past the new Mission Impossible poster where Tom Cruise is hanging onto some yellow plane, and he just looks really cool'. She further mentioned, 'My kids were with me when I shot 'Old Guard 2' and I worked on this incredibly intricate sequence where we brought in this amazing helicopter pilot, Fred North, and we were gonna choreograph me fighting helicopters and jumping on this real helicopter and hanging off. Shooting 99 per cent of it on a real helicopter as it's trying to shake me off like a rag doll'. 'We took like two weeks to shoot this sequence and I was like, 'Wow, I just did that, that's really amazing'. And my child yesterday just looked at this poster of Tom Cruise and went, 'It's weird, he looks so much cooler than you did when you were hanging off the helicopter'. I was just like, 'I hung off the helicopter, (can I have) some credit?'', she added. Indo-Asian News Service
