Meghan
Trainor isn’t holding anything back!

In a hilarious
first look exclusive, Meghan spills all for Radio Disney’s “ARDY Asks”
segment – including her pre-show rituals and what her “homies” like
to call her!

“When
I’m nervous? I sing. Before every red carpet? I sing. Before the RDMAs? Imma
sing,” Meghan said.

The pop
starlet and Grammy winner also revealed that her nickname is “M
Train,” which she apparently has no problem with.

“I love
that,” Meghan said of the moniker. “I always wanna be M Train.”

Meghan, up
for two Radio Disney Music Awards, also took the opportunity to explain why she
prefers dogs over cats, the superstitious reason she doesn’t go barefoot, and
how unrequited love may have jump-started her music career.

“The first real song I wrote was
called ‘Give Me A Chance,’ and it was because I was deeply in love with my
older brother’s best friend,” Meghan shared.

However, she hinted that the
revelation might not be such a big secret after all.

“He knows
it’s about him,” she joked, before giving her former crush a shout-out. “Whassup,
Matt?”

Voting for the 2016 RDMA
is open through Sunday, April 10 at Disney.com/RDMA, the Radio Disney app, Google OneBox and via
