This past May, Meghan Trainor jumpstarted “Me Too” with a performance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.”
Monday, she does the same for the follow-up single.
The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter performs “Better” on Monday night’s edition of the NBC talk show. And she does not do so alone.
Yo Gotti, who is featured on the track, joins her for the performance.
Not simply there to perform, Trainor also participates in an interview with “Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon. The episode also features Kevin Bacon, who appears for an interview and a “First Drafts of Rock” sketch.
