Biography

International award-winning actress, singer-songwriter and filmmaker, Melissa Mars received major notice in the United States and around the world after appearing alongside John Travolta in From Paris With Love produced by Luc Besson (Nikita, Lucy), winning a best supporting actress award (for her performance) in The Cabining, multiple best actress awards for her “heartfelt, spectacular and vulnerable” performance in the drama Polly, and having her song “Beautiful” picked up by Coca-Cola Music for their "52 Songs of Happiness" worldwide music compilation album. She is well-known in France for her pop music career. Her first single: “Papa M’aime Pas” (Daddy doesn’t love me) catapulted her in the French charts, followed by three solo albums with Polydor-Universal Music, and concert tours praised in the press (W magazine, Elle, Madame Figaro…) as "singular, fairy and rock n’ fun". Le Monde (French established newspaper) described her as “Tinker Bell transformed by Tim Burton”. Mars featured on many duets, including "1980”, a hit with French pop star P. Obispo that reached number 5 in the charts. She is also well known for her leading role in the smash hit musical Mozart the Rock Opera, that sold more than 1,500,000 tickets, directed by Olivier Dahan who helmed the Oscar-winning film La Vie en Rose, and for which she received with the cast a best ensemble NRJ award and a diamond record.
