I was the BIGGEST fan for years, went to see K-12 in theatres, even met her. But something's changed in her the past 5 years or so and I feel very sad that I'm just not excited anymore. The fact she just quit on the Portals era halfway through, stopped making music videos, and just chilled cheap perfumes and cash-grabs over and over felt like a slap in the face to longtime fans

I also hate the social media blackout thing with a passion. Deleting everything from your past that your fans enjoyed feels so wrong. I guess it's right in line with her whole rejecting her past eras phase she seems to be in

And if you see this Artdoll I'm sorry you have to always see me complain now when we used to get so excited together :smh:

I'm kinda glad that she didn't do music video for all Portals songs because that would take so much time and I think she realized it's not sustainable if you're having ideas and creating a new project.  Even K-12 took years... I'm glad we're here and getting music now, I'm just as excited for this era

Yeah I honestly wish she just got it together and shot one big movie again. But I know the label wasn't keen on funding it. Just sucks that she didn't keep anyone in the loop and then just said "I've moved on". I was hanging out for so long for The Contortionist, Evil, and Nymphology and also to see how she portrayed the 'rebirth' into the new character at the end of Womb. But whatever I guess. She's a bit of a selfish artist. An amazing artist, but an annoying one

I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.

I'm not sure if it'd be much cheaper but, seeing how she had to trim down the K-12 script from 3+ hours to 90 minutes makes me wish she considered releasing it as a novel (as well), this applies to Portals too!

It is so goofy how y'all all claim to be allies to victims but then you lend credibility to anyone and everyone who lobs a lazy allegation at anybody.

"I am a victim" should be believed.

"This person assaulted me" has to be proven. And nothing has been proven.

All this garbage does is hurt actual victims.

Here’s the thing that I find hypocritical. I think at the of the day, this site picks and chooses when an artist gets cancelled. A lot of people are quick to cancel other singers/artists for any type of allegation. Even if the evidence isn’t substantial enough, a “he said she said”type of thing, there will always be something that they’ll cling to in order to validate their hate and dislike for that artist. In their mind, it’s a done deal. However, I think because it’s Melanie Martinez, a female artist some people here like, we can just look past it. Maybe there has been other things that have been proven otherwise regarding this case, but it’s just so weird to me how it’s very selective for certain artists. The energy isn’t matching.

I'm not talking about any random allegation, I'm talking about unproven, actually unlikely to be true, accusations of sexual assault specifically.

"He said/she said" is just mindless petty nonsense. SA isn't, and it should be handled with more tact than yucking any/everyone with an allegation 'cause even freaking LADY GAGA has allegations of sexual assault thrown at her. It's a gross thing to handle so poorly.

Whimsical bitch

Omg that would've been such a great idea! She could've found a really amazing author to help her get out her vision. I'm sure she already had the storyboards for all of the videos planned and probably even drawn out.

Actually you know what would've slayed? A visual novel :bradley:  that actually would've been amazing. God damn it now I'm annoyed because of how great that would've been :laughga:

Her perfumes are actually really well formulated, and are still priced in the mid range in comparison to other niche fragrance houses some go for up to 2-3 thousand dollars for a 3 oz 

and also, her label is the reason she stopped with the music videos, they would not fund them for her. 
 

the rest I understand though.

I believe its actually the opposite. In my own experience, just about everywhere I look (on social media) I see disdain for Melanie (aside from her own fans). Any article, post, etc. she has most definitely had her reputation hurt. Whereas you have artists like Chris Brown who are proven abusers and are thriving.

Okay FINE I believe you. I'd just seen a tonne of people online saying the bottles are cheap plastic like a child's toy and the fragrances were basic and didn't last long. I'm not exactly gonna buy them all myself just to judge them in person :laughga:

Soooo excited for this. Idc about Portals visuals being “incomplete”.  I’d much rather artists move into new music than do any kind of visuals or even touring for that matter. I will always take new music over the rest.
