London: Singer-songwriter Meghan Trainor, who has been body-conscious as teenager, says she has learned to love her curves.
The 21-year-old singer now thinks "every body type is beautiful", reported In Touch Weekly.
"I think it's good to have someone with a regular average body on the pop charts. It's about loving what you got and rocking it," the 'All About That Bass' hitmaker said.
Recalling her struggle as a high school girl, Trainor said, "It was pretty serious. I would sit in class feeling uncomfortable. I regret a lot of those moments and those thoughts that I had in my head," she said.
"I grew up a chubby girl. I wasn't outspoken about it and I didn't approach my parents. I should have known how cute I was, and been a lot happier. Now, with my songs, I just hope I'm reaching out to those young girls who are also sitting there, miserable with their body," she added.
