Megan Moroney is hilariously calling herself a thirst trap in a new video she shares on social media. In the video, Moroney can be seen fully clothed doing a belly flop into a rooftop pool in Nashville.

Moroney captions the video with just the words "thirst trap," along with #form and #emocowgirlbar.
The 27-year-old was at the rooftop pool, located at a downtown Nashville hotel, to celebrate her second No. 1 single, with "Am I Okay?"

The song, the title track of her sophomore album, was produced by Kristian Bush.
The Story Behind "Am I Okay?" By Megan Moroney
"Am I Okay?" says in part, "Maybe love ain't always what it was / Not cryin' and dyin', and messin' me up / I think I'm really happy, I think I wanna stay / Oh, my God, am I okay?" A former romance Moroney was in is the unlikely inspiration for the song. Unfortunately, the relationship didn't last, but it did at least give her a hit song.
"When I was explaining how I felt, I was like, 'Yeah, I want to write a love song,'" Moroney tells Billboard. "Like, 'I'm tired of writing sad songs. I don't know what's wrong with me, but I met this guy.
"He's being really nice to me, and for once, I don't want to sabotage it," she adds. "And I think I could be a girlfriend.' And they were just like, 'Oh my God, are you okay?'"
Unfortunately, the song is also a painful reminder of the relationship that did not turn into what she once hoped it would be.
"I'm in the studio having to sing this song about a guy being really nice to me. When actually it was just like three months, and he showed me who he actually was," the "6 Months Later" singer admits. "And now I have to sing this forever."
Overall, the Georgia native does not write a lot of love songs. It's a trademark she is proud of in her music.
"If I'm writing a love song, I must be ill," she says. "That's the whole premise of the song."
