Melanie Adele Martinez is a 22-year-old American singer who creates alternative music and is known for her unique, child-like style featuring heavy makeup and bright hair. She first gained recognition on The Voice where she made it to the top 6. Her debut single "Doll House," which she wrote and helped film the music video for, became popular after her elimination and led to her being signed by Atlantic Records. "Doll House" was her second best-selling song and earned platinum certification. Though her songs on The Voice appealed to a wide audience, her original songs discuss more serious issues in an indie style.
