We can all think that the story of "Cry Baby" is fictitious, which is a bit true but not entirely since in several interviews Melanie has said that some lyrics of the songs of the album are inspired in her childhood...
In today's blog I will tell you about the singer's childhood and how it has affected her musical career. 🤔
Melanie Adele Martinez was born on April 28, 1995 in the US, since she was little her 2 upper front teeth were separated, which is normal for a 5-year-old girl in the Kindergarten, but everything changed when Melanie turned 12 years old.
She began to suffer from bullying because of her teeth, which were permanently separated like this, in high school and everyone made fun of her.
When she graduated she believed that she would never suffer that hell of teasing and antisociality again but she was very wrong since in high school she started to suffer more bullying.
Also in those times was when she found her love for music and began to do some covers of songs to upload them on her YouTube channel. But as soon as her classmates noticed the channel they quickly found what to bother her more and in the classroom they used to play her videos of her songs at full volume. By that point in her life she was fed up and began in the vice of cutting her arms and even her chin because she could no longer bear the teasing.
But when she believed that her life was hopeless, she had discovered a great opportunity for her. She saw that the auditions for "The Voice" were very close so she did not doubt it for a second and went to sign up for it. Melanie believed that a change of look would not be bad so she inspired in one of her favorite Disney villains "Cruela de Vil" so she painted half of her hair with one color and left the other with her natural color.
When she was eliminated from the competition, the fame she earned on it helped her launch her first DOLLHOUSE single.
Regarding the album and what we talked about at the beginning, Melanie affirmed that several songs were based on her childhood since she did not have as much support in her childhood or any person who was her role model.

But now Melanie is happy and she is making her dream come true surrounded by people who love and support her a lot.💜
