Songfacts®:

• "Still Don't Care" is Meghan Trainor's neon-lit reminder that, after years of unsolicited commentary from strangers on the internet, she is unbothered. Her earlier hits like "All About That Bass" preached body positivity with bubblegum charm, but "Still Don't Care" feels like the grown-up sequel: same message, bigger hair, more synths.
• Trainor described the 1980s-influenced pop track to Billboard as "bold, fun, a little cheeky, and full of confidence."
  
  "This song came from a place of growth for me," she said. "I'm learning to shake off negativity, choosing joy, and living life my way, because at this point in my life and career, I'm ready to be done worrying about pleasing everyone."
• The song is a spiritual cousin of "No," "Me Too," and pretty much every Meghan Trainor self-love anthem.
• An earlier version titled "Nope, I Still Don't Care," leaked online on July 8, 2025. The finished, official "Still Don't Care" arrived on November 12, 2025 as the lead single from Trainor's seventh album, Toy With Me.
• "Still Don't Care" was inspired by Trainor's therapist urging her to stop giving "strangers so much power." The singer had shared on social media how she underwent breast augmentation surgery and lost 60 pounds with the help of the weight-loss drug Mounjaro. But hurtful online reactions to her posts were keeping her up at night.
  
  "I was getting a lot of hate when I started posting more pictures of my fitness journey and my health journey," she told The Association Press. "And I didn't really expect that."
• Trainor sings about the kind of self-affirmation she wishes she always felt. "People started commenting about my body, saying I'm too thin, and that they don't recognize me anymore, she told People. "And I was like, 'Oh, I've just been focusing so hard on my health and my fitness that I've never felt better.' So, I was confused and sad and was like, 'Oh, it's almost worse now.' I don't know what happened."
  
  "I liked the idea of... 'Let me think about it one more time. Nope, I still don't care.' And I know that when I start singing it, it'll be my therapy, my exposure therapy."
• Meghan Trainor wrote the song with Caroline Ailin, Ellis Robert McKay Lawrie, Scott Harris, and Steve Mac. The song was produced by Steve Mac, a frequent collaborator of Trainor who has worked with her on previous projects.
  
  Steve Mac is known for his high-profile work on pop hits for artists like Westlife and Ed Sheeran, and his involvement contributed to the song's polished, 1980s-influenced production.
• The song features an energetic choir courtesy of Pentatonix's Scott Hoying. Trainor's relationship to Pentatonix goes back to 2016 when the a cappella group covered her song "No."
• Trainor's mother, brother, and sister-in-law sing background vocals. It's not the first time Trainor has enlisted family members: her brother, mom, and then-fiancé (now husband) Daryl Sabara contributed backing vocals to her 2018 hit "No Excuses."
• Meghan Trainor wrote "Still Don't Care" while preparing to welcome a daughter via surrogacy, and that looming arrival gave the song a more protective purpose than a standard self-confidence anthem.
  
  "I was just thinking about how hard this world is, especially for a girl, I was just so worried about her," she told Billboard. "So I wanted to write an anthem for us to sing one day if she ever feels like I feel. It was really hard. It was really hard. I think nowadays just with social media everyone's really mean and loud, and it seems like the meanest comment wins these days. I think we're living in a very hateful time and it's really sad."
• The video for "Still Don't Care" turns Los Angeles into both backdrop and co-star, following Meghan Trainor as she sings and dances her way through the city with fans in tow: outside The Cheesecake Factory, aboard a trolley, at LA LA Land Kind Cafe and splashing through the fountain at The Grove. It plays like a bright, chaotic love letter to Los Angeles, with a hint of guerrilla theater.
  
  The concept was partly born from affection for her adopted city, where she has lived for more than a decade, and partly from what she called "exposure therapy."
  
  "I am really shy and I am nervous and anxious to perform in front of people a lot," she explained to Billboard. "So we all came up with this idea and thought let me just make an ass and myself and dress like the most pop star princess you could ever imagine and just go in actual public and let's get people's raw reactions."
