The track is a doo-wop track with pop influences. Lyrically, it describes feeling confident in your own body, no matter what you are wearing or doing. It was inspired by Trainor's insecurities of body image after her pregnancy.

Prior to its release, Trainor posted numerous videos on Tik Tok teasing the song, with videos featuring numerous popular content creators. About a week after the song's initial release, "Made You Look" began to go viral on Tik Tok. This led to a large increase in streams across streaming platforms, charting in the Spotify Global, Spotify US, and Spotify UK charts.
The song was a massive international success, reaching #1 in Poland and the top 10 in over 20 countries. The track was featured on the Belgium and the Netherlands' year end charts. In Australia it is certified x2 Platinum. In the United States, it peaked at #11 on the US Billboard Hot 100 Chart and reached #1 on the US Adult Contemporary Chart.
A music video for the track was released the same day as the album. This music video featured her husband, Daryl Sabara, as well as numerous content creators such as, Drew Afualo, Chris Olsen, JoJo Siwa, and Scott Hoying. The song was sent to US radio on October 31, 2022, a week and a half after its initial release. Trainor performed the song on The Today Show on October 21, later performing the song on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon.
Made You Look
Meghan Trainor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I could wear my Louis Vuitton
But even with nothin' on
Bet I made you look (I made you look)
I'll make you double take soon as I walk away
Call up your chiropractor just in case your neck break
Ooh, tell me what you, what you, what you gon' do, ooh
I'm 'bout to turn the heat up, gonna make your glasses steam
Ooh, tell me what you, what you, what you gon' do, ooh
When I do my walk, walk (oh)
I can guarantee your jaw will drop, drop (oh)
'Cause they don't make a lot of what I got, got (ah, ah)
Ladies if you feel me, this your bop, bop (bop-bop-bop)
I could have my Gucci on (Gucci on)
I could wear my Louis Vuitton
But even with nothin' on
Bet I made you look (I made you look)
Yeah, I look good in my Versace dress (take it off)
But I'm hotter when my morning hair's a mess
'Cause even with my hoodie on
Bet I made you look (I made you look)
Mhm-hm-hm
And once you get a taste (woo), you'll never be the same
This ain't that ordinary, this that 14 karat cake
Ooh, tell me what you, what you, what you gon' do, ooh (what you gon' do, ooh, ooh)
When I do my walk, walk (oh)
I can guarantee your jaw will drop, drop (oh) (I guarantee your jaw will drop, drop)
'Cause they don't make a lot of what I got, got (ah, ah)
Ladies if you feel me, this your bop, bop (bop-bop-bop)
Oh, I could have my Gucci on (Gucci on)
I could wear my Louis Vuitton
But even with nothin' on
Bet I made you look (said, I made you look)
Yeah, I look good in my Versace dress (take it off, baby)
But I'm hotter when my morning hair's a mess
'Cause even with my hoodie on
Bet I made you look (said, I made you look)
In "Made You Look," Meghan Trainor addresses the expectations that society puts on women to look a certain way. The opening lines suggest that even though she could wear designer clothing and accessories, she does not need them to get attention. The repetition of the phrase "I made you look" suggests that Trainor is challenging the idea that women have to dress a certain way to be noticed. She is declaring that she can capture attention by simply being herself.
Trainor also challenges the idea that women are objects to be looked at. The lyric "Call up your chiropractor just in case your neck break" suggests that men are so entranced by her that they may have a physical reaction. The refrain "When I do my walk, walk/ I can guarantee your jaw will drop" further highlights Trainor's power to captivate and challenge the male gaze.
Moreover, Trainor’s phrase "Ladies if you feel me, this your bop, bop" seems like an invitation for other women to join her in feeling confident and empowered. In essence, the song celebrates the power and beauty of women, regardless of their looks or clothing.
