Meghan Trainor hit the brakes on her next big thing.

Trainor abruptly announced she was canceling her upcoming tour as the pop star revealed growing her family and performing across the country is “more than [she] can take on right now.”

“After a lot of reflection and some really tough conversations, I’ve made the difficult decision to cancel ‘The Get In Girl Tour,'” she wrote Thursday on her Instagram Story.

“Balancing the release of a new album, preparing for a nationwide tour, and welcoming our new baby girl to our growing family of five has just been more than I can take on right now, and I need to be home and present for each and all of them at this time,” she added.

Trainor and husband Daryl Sabara welcomed their third child via surrogacy in January.

The 32-year-old mother of three appeared remorseful as she apologized to her fans.

“I know this will come as a disappointment to my fans, and I am so sorry to let you down,” Trainor wrote. “But I know this is the right decision for my family and me right now.”

“I promise I’ll be back soon, and I can’t wait for you to hear this new record. I’m so proud of it and I’m endlessly grateful for your love and support always.”

“I didn’t look [at the comments],” Trainor admitted during an appearance on Kylie Kelce’s “Not Gonna Lie” podcast. “I knew fully — because it was after all the hate I was already getting for changing, just for looking different because I took care of myself — so I was like, ‘Oh, they hate me now. They ain’t going like this.'”

“And it was a cloud of tears every night of just worry.”

The “Made You Look” singer explained the couple chose surrogacy as the “safest way” to welcome their third child after Trainor struggled with her health and the possibility of an autoimmune disease.

“Every day when we knew she was alive in someone else, we were like, ‘Is she OK?'” Trainor told Kelce. “You know, like you go cuckoo, you go crazy. There’s so much that goes into it, but we had an amazing surrogate who was so good to us and texts us everything and we got to talk all the time.”

TECH SHAKE-UP: Snapchat parent company cuts 1,000 jobs in major AI-driven workforce restructuring – Snapchat’s parent company, Snap, announced it is laying off approximately 1,000 employees—about 16% of its full-time workforce — as part of a major restructuring effort driven by the integration of artificial intelligence. The tech firm expects the cuts and AI-driven workflow efficiencies to yield over $500 million in annualized savings, following pressure from an activist investor to streamline operations and rein in costs.

CODED INFLUENCE: The AI you use every day is biased — and it’s quietly shaping your worldview, new report says – A new report from the America First Policy Institute reveals that popular artificial intelligence systems consistently lean left and possess a subtle ideological bias that can quietly shape users’ worldviews.

TECH BOOM BRAKES: First-ever moratorium on AI data centers passes Maine legislature – Maine is poised to become the first state to impose a moratorium on large artificial intelligence data centers, advancing legislation that would pause approvals for hyperscale facilities requiring over 20 megawatts of power until October 2027. The move, which reflects growing national backlash over power grid strain and environmental impacts, will serve as a major test case for how states balance the massive energy demands of Big Tech with local economic and ecological concerns.

COSTLY CONVENIENCE: OPINION: AI tax filing sounds easy — until it leaves you owing the IRS thousands of dollars – While using AI chatbots like ChatGPT to file taxes may seem like a convenient shortcut, relying on them can lead to costly errors and severe IRS penalties due to the tools’ inability to accurately apply complex tax codes. Expert Hemant Bhargava cautions taxpayers to treat AI as a translator rather than a decision-maker, emphasizing that consumer AI systems frequently miscalculate liabilities and fail to securely handle highly sensitive financial data.

DIGITAL DOPPELGANGER: Meta reportedly building an AI version of Mark Zuckerberg to interact with company employees – Meta is reportedly developing a photorealistic, artificial intelligence-powered version of CEO Mark Zuckerberg to interact directly with company employees, according to a recent report.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas drew widespread attention on social media after giving a rare, televised address warning that the country’s founding principles are under threat from modern progressivism and urging a return to founding American values.

“Progressivism seeks to replace the basic premises of the Declaration of Independence, and hence our form of government,” Thomas said Wednesday at the University of Texas at Austin, later discussing values of devotion mentioned in our founding document.

“The willingness to do anything for our principles that has throughout American history been most indispensable. It is that devotion that we are missing today and that we must find in our hearts if this nation is to endure,” he added.

Clips of Thomas’ remarks quickly went viral online, with reposts from figures like billionaire Elon Musk and comedian Rob Schneider.

“Fox & Friends” host Brian Kilmeade noted Friday that while it’s rare, “when you hear from Clarence Thomas, it’s usually important.” His co-host, Lawrence Jones, agreed, calling the speech a “unifying” and “non-political” message.

Fox News legal editor Kerri Urbahn described it as the “best speech I have ever heard in my life on the Declaration of Independence.” She said the speech was “more powerful” given Thomas’ upbringing in the Jim Crow South and his early hardships.

“Clarence Thomas was born into deep poverty. He didn’t even have a bed to sleep in until he was seven years old,” Urbahn told “Fox & Friends” Friday. “And yet here he is as a Supreme Court justice, championing this document, our founding documents, despite the evils and abuses that occurred, especially in the beginning of the country.”

She added that Thomas’ core message was a reminder that “God gives us rights, not government,” and warned the nation is losing the “sense of courage” required to maintain a working and free society.

Others online echoed that sentiment, including Sen. Mike Lee, who wrote on X in response to a news article about the speech: “Progressivism is an existential threat to America.” Conservative influencer Nick Sortor posted, “Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas just dropped a TRUTH BOMB.”

The viral moment comes after President Donald Trump told FOX Business’ Maria Bartiromo he is “prepared” to appoint up to three Supreme Court justices during this term. Trump suggested Justice Samuel Alito may be eyeing retirement and noted he has a “shortlist” of replacements. A source close to Alito has said the justice currently has no plans to step down.
