Hi Melissa! I’m not sure if you’ll see this, but my name is Aly. When I was about 9 or 10, I watched you on PCD Search for the Next Doll. I always rooted for you as you were my favourite. My sister and I loved that show and over the years I’d still re-watch the series (including recently!). I’m now 27 years old and I just wanted to say thanks for still being present and uploading here on KZbin. You have so many fans (like me) who have been wondering about you over the years. You gave me hope and inspiration at an age where I grew up in an unstable, abusive household. Watching you and the PCD show were some of the only happy times I had as a kid. I really hope you can share an update on what happened after the show and what you’ve been up to all of these years whenever you feel the time is right- that’s if you want to, of course! Sending so many good vibes your way! And again, thanks for being present and sharing your beautiful talents with the world. We all miss and love you! 🥰

Aly, I am so moved by your kind words. Your journey is a reminder to me that the work you and I do truly matters, even in small ways. As long as we do it with love from our heart. Thank you for sharing your beautifully tragic story. I hope you have seen many rainbows and silver linings along your journey of life. Never stop growing and shining and sharing what you love. I will do my best to work on sharing my story after the show. It isn't that interesting, but I can assure it's as normal as can be. Nevertheless, I have you in mind. Peace and Happy Thanksgiving! :)

Melissa! I have always been a fan of you since I was a little girl too. I just read through the comments from the person above and I relate - a little girl inspired by the talent of someone who looked like her in media. Your presence and voice were such a gift to us all. It’s been amazing to follow your journey from what you’ve shared on here as I, like you, seek to find that joy for myself. Love to see you still filling yourself with your joy, it would be great to hear your story one of these days when you’re ready. Bless! 🙏🙏 I also loved these songs you put out back in the day. I’m a musician myself who loves to play with others filled by that same love , hope to hear more!

Hi Melissa! I hope you don't mind me asking, but I have been following your progress since the PCD era (you replied to a comment of mine from a few months ago) and I was wondering if your accent had changed? It's very Itallian/ European now vs the American one you had prior- is that because you relocated at some point? Anyways, either way, still a beautiful voice and thank you for the video!

Hello there! It’s a good question, actually! I was just speaking in German today at Costco reciting poetry to someone who was helping me out. I’m in love with the art of language. Particularly, my favorite language to speak is Spanish and my favorite languages to sing are French, Spanish and Italian because, of course, they derive from Latin and are all considered Romance languages. I had to study all these languages at the university music conservatory. I was also raised by Irish nuns and their accents are very much imbedded in how I speak English. God bless you and keep you safe always. You have an inquisitive mind and I am very much on the same level as you in regards to having a healthy curiosity about human nature and patterns we display especially through our speech. Peace and love, dearest friend!

@MelissaAnneReyes Жыл бұрын
@@boycrazy1001 so awesome that you found my example to be a good one. Thanks for sharing. I honestly was just doing what I loved to do which was to dance and sing and entertain you because I believe in the art of music and performance to help bring people to a state of temporary joy. Nowadays my focus is on that eternal joy that I have found in my musical service in church. So long story short (I’m actually sitting in church after prayer service) I started off singing in church. Mom and dad wanted me to choose my career in high school and I chose performing arts. Enrolled to study musical theater in college but Paris Hilton hired me to dance for her in her world tour. That is where I met Robin. From there, Robin took me under her wing through the PCD contest. I had my foot in the door but I still worked my butt off to do good! It’s the work ethic instilled in me by my parents who have worked hard for everything in life even for my salvation! So I believe fully in earning my salvation my staying in God’s love which I find plentiful in singing in church. So I’m content - not quite in heaven, but close enough to be thankful for every day - even situations that are difficult to understand . . . God bless you and know you are looking for that fulfilling joy and I hope you find it in your work, school, family, art and passions. Peace be always with you, V. Thanks for everything!! 💟✌🏼

Melissa. I'm from Venezuela, and you were always my favorite on TSFND show. I remember I was 12 years old, a fan of pcd, and I wanted you to be the winner. I loved your voice, your personality, and your skill in dancing. You had an x factor on stage. And now seeing that you are happily in your vocation makes me very happy. At the age of 21, I entered the seminary of my diocese. And I've been following God ever since. many greetings and blessings. I would love to hear from you.

Thank you for stopping by to leave this message . . . I know you’re in the right hands when you decide to follow God’s will for you. I try to do the same every day in the vocation He has given me. I hope to either enter a convent or get married one day. Only God knows. So if you could say a prayer for me . . . That would be great. I’ll keep you in prayer for your continued discernment and God-willing your ordination. Peace and blessings dearest friend in Jesus Mary and Joseph!

Hi Melissa! Forgive me for the long post since I just found out about your channel now. I'm ecstatic to find out you still haven't given up on music. I'm a fellow Filipino so I was rooting for you during SFTND and I even caught your performance at ASAP and you really stand out in both shows and in all of your performances Out of curiosity though, would you be willing to cover modern songs in your channel. I think R&B and Jazz suit your voice very well after listening to "Can't Stop This girl". And I'm sure you could pull off singing classic Disney too. To be honest, I was kinda bummed out that you weren't able to break out in the music scene the same way Nicole Scherzinger and Leah Salonga did. You obviously do have a talent and stage presence that's atypical from the rest. The way you're able to immerse yourself in a performance is truly one of a kind. You seem so at home on stage, it's like you were born to perform. If I may ask, do you have any intention of auditioning for any musicals? Would really love to see you perform live in one someday. I do hope and pray that more people could be a witness to your talent and passion because I believe the rest of the world is missing out by not seeing it. Anyways best of love and I'm happy to see you doing well!
