Meghan Trainor announced as Minnesota State Fair 2025 Grandstand headliner

The "All About That Bass" pop star has garnered a Grammy Award for Best New Artist, achieved eight multi-platinum singles and two multi-platinum albums, sold out three world tours and received multiple industry awards and nominations since she dropped that diamond-certified single in 2014. Trainor has also starred as a judge on "The Voice UK" and FOX's "The Four: Battle for Stardom." She released her fourth studio album, "Takin' It Back," in 2022 and re-released her album "Title" to celebrate its 10-year anniversary on March 28, featuring two new songs, "All About That Bass (Remastered)" and "Better When I'm Dancin' ( Timeless Tour Version)." Trainor is the eighth headlining Grandstand Series show to be announced thus far, with the others listed as follows for 2025: The Avett Brothers and The Milk Carton Kids — Aug. 29
