3. Commuting Isn't Meghan's Thing

Trainor moved to Nashville in order to further her music career. She said: "I just knew I had to get closer, because I was so tired of traveling from the island. Take a boat, and then a two-hour car ride to Boston, then take a six-hour plane ride to L.A. It was a hike. There's gotta be an easier way. I was 19 and my parents didn't want to move me to LA at 19 because that's terrifying and expensive, but with the publishing money I got I could afford Nashville, so we came here" And thank goodness, because she might not have been spotted if she'd stayed in Cape Cod.
