Martinez said goodbye to “Cry Baby” last month in a popular TikTok video. “Cry Baby” (2015) was the alter ego child version of Martinez that appeared on her Cry Baby debut and follow-up albums as well as in the feature film K-12. Martinez performed what seemed to be a brand-new song while the image focused on the words “RIP Cry Baby” carved into a massive mushroom.
‘Portals’ caught the singer emerging from a big egg while a new song played, dressed in pink and sporting facial enhancements reminiscent of Shape of Water.
