Meghan Trainor films a playful State Farm commercial in Kansas City that pairs her with NFL quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Her husband Daryl Sabara, brother Ryan, one of her young sons, and her glam squad join her on set. The ad features Trainor in a hot pink leather outfit singing and dancing while using a leg brace like an accordion, clearly not the conventional trainer. Trainor recalls childhood football games playing center for her brother and wanting to make him proud. She remembers watching State Farm commercials as a child and describes the filming as dreamlike. At 31, she intends to pursue acting while balancing motherhood and pop stardom.
I just wanted to hang out with my brothers more, and this seemed like the easiest way I could get in there. I wanted to make him proud, but if I dropped that ball, I was dead to him.
I've watched State Farm commercials since I was a really young kid. So when I got the ask, my team knew it'd be a big deal. They were like, 'make sure your husband's next to you on FaceTime.'
I'm gonna be an actress someday,' she says. 'Yep, I'm gonna do it.
