Former Australian Idol judge Meghan Trainor has revealed how her time Down Under inspired the name of her infant son.

The Massachusetts-born pop star, 30, and her husband Daryl Sabara stayed in Australia for several months in 2023 while she filmed her role in the Channel Seven singing competition.

'My baby was inside me when I was in Australia. His name is Barry Bruce, and he's perfect. He's my little Australian baby and I'm so happy,' she told Nova's Smallzy's Surgery podcast this week,

Meghan said she got the inspiration for her son's name from an iconic animated movie that was set in Australia - Finding Nemo. 

Among the stars of the 2003 film is late Australian actor Barry Humphries, who voiced the character Bruce the shark.
