Chris Olsen Fires Back: Meghan Trainor Feud Is Myth—Friendship Shines

Chris Olsen, the 28‑year‑old TikTok personality, addressed growing chatter that he and pop singer Meghan Trainor had a falling out. In an exclusive clip on Tommy DiDario’s “I’ve Never Said This Before” podcast aired Tuesday, September 14, Olsen said there is no beef between them.

He reiterated that their friendship remains solid despite any rumors.

During the interview, Olsen explained how the speculation began. “We always play a joke on the internet in ways,” he said.

“They thought we were childhood friends for the longest time because that was the first video we ever made together.” He admitted he can’t recall if they ever joked about a feud and clarified that nothing has happened.

Olsen added that distance now comes from geography rather than conflict. “I am just in New York full time and she is in L.A. I miss her and I miss being [gay uncle] Chris to the kids,” he shared.

“I feel very much a part of the Trainor family.” He said they recently talked and reaffirmed, “We are family now.” He encouraged listeners to avoid spinning drama from their friendship.

## Background & Context

Olsen and Trainor first became friends in 2022 when he appeared on her podcast. Over the next few years, the pair documented their BFF antics on TikTok, earning a dedicated following. Trainor, who is 32 and has three children with husband Daryl Sabara, had recently canceled her “Get in Girl” tour that was scheduled to begin in June.

The decision drew public backlash on social media.

Olsen defended Trainor in an April TikTok video after the tour’s cancellation. “I guess now it’s become public knowledge that Meghan Trainor has canceled her tour,” he said. He criticized the harsh comments that followed, questioning their purpose.

“What is the end goal?” he asked. “Because sure, the goal might be to make other people laugh because you’re saying something that’s mean, but you think it’s funny. The goal could be to hurt the person you’re commenting toward.”

## What People Are Saying

Fans who followed Olsen’s defense noted that the negative comments were “predictably vicious,” as he observed in his earlier post. He urged listeners to consider the intent behind such remarks and to approach online criticism with caution.

In response, he highlighted personal experiences with hostility: “I’ve been on the receiving end of a death threat before, so I know sometimes people do just want you to die, which I know also just means they want you to go away.” He added that harsh language often reflects frustration rather than a genuine desire for harm.

Olsen concluded by reminding his audience that negativity is inevitable in the public eye. “[There are always going to be] people who annoy you. So really, this energy just continues to get wasted,” he said.

He called on fans to stay supportive of Trainor and themselves, emphasizing understanding over judgment.

## What Happens Next

No new legal or professional developments have emerged since Olsen’s interview. Both he and Trainor continue to engage with their audiences through TikTok and other platforms, maintaining a friendly rapport. The pair’s friendship remains intact, with no announced plans for joint projects beyond their existing content collaborations.

In sum, the rumors of a feud have been dismissed by Olsen himself. He framed the narrative as one of distance due to geography, not animosity, and urged his followers to look past online drama.
