Here is a video of a bass vocalist named Avi Kaplan singing Meghan Trainor’s “All About That Bass,” with backup singers Mario Jose and Naomi Samilton.

As a bonus, Kaplan’s gender reversal in the lyrics makes for a refreshing nod to male body image issues. Plus there are cheeseburgers and two heaping plates of french fries, which are fun to stare at, especially when three beautiful voices are telling you your belly is just fine like it is.
