Meg Smith, Molly Grace & MARIS deliver a sparkly yet sharp pop anthem with “Girls Just Wanna Be Famous(er)”

Meet Meg Smith: the LA-born, NYC-based singer-songwriter behind everything from anthemic pop bangers to guitar-driven reflections on the chaos of romantic (and platonic) relationships—so much so, she coined her own genre: romcom pop.

Her latest release, “Girls Just Wanna Be Famous(er),” comes in two versions—one solo and one featuring rising stars Molly Grace and MARIS. We’re talking about the collab version here, and trust us, it’s the one you’ll want to hit repeat on.

An electro-pop-meets-Americana anthem, “Girls Just Wanna Be Famous(er)” channels the glitzy charm of Sabrina Carpenter and the theatrical flair of Chappell Roan, layered over a classic pop beat and soaring vocals. The top-line melody sparkles with confidence—but it’s the lyrical bite that sticks with you.

The three artists’ voices blend effortlessly, and given the track’s themes, it feels only right that it’s three powerhouse women teaming up to deliver a banger with brains.

Beneath the shimmer is a sharp critique of the exhausting, never-enough pursuit of fame. It’s a song about ambition, burnout, and the creeping question of why we’re willing to give everything up just to be seen. That inner tension is carried with equal parts sass and sincerity—and the climactic sax solo, riffing over the thunderous production, is the final exclamation point.

A pop moment with something to say—and it says it loud.
