Meghan Trainor made a splash onto the music scene when she made us all love, and some of us hate, the body-positive hit “All About That Bass.” Trainor picked up the song for her debut album after it was passed over numerous times.
Labels offered the song to Beyoncé, Adele, and every curvy artist in-between until finally Trainor took it and ran.
Coming up, Rihanna and Britney Spears are the queens of being offered, and passing up, on major hits.
