Written and directed by Martinez, the spectacularly creative « TUNNEL VISION » is the latest in a series of visual releases leading up to her most ambitious concert tour to date. Presented by Live Nation, The Trilogy Tour will see the evolution of her alter ego « Cry Baby » performed live, encompassing hits from all three of Martinez’s Top 10 albums: Cry Baby, K-12, and Portals which have collectively amassed over 14B streams worldwide. Dates get underway on May 10, 2024 at Seattle WA’s Climate Pledge Arena and then makes stops at arenas across North America through mid-June. Highlights include such historic venues as Inglewood, CA’s Kia Forum (May 15), New York City’s Madison Square Garden (June 5 & 6), and Toronto, ON’s Scotiabank Arena (June 9). Special guests throughout the tour include Men I Trust, Beach Bunny, and Sofia Isella. For complete details and remaining ticket availability, please see www.thetrilogytour.com.
Martinez recently partnered with boutique fragrance company Flower Shop Perfumes Co. to launch a new four-fragrance collection, Portals Parfums. With pre-sales launched at 11:00 a.m. on November 1, the direct-to-consumer scents completely sold out in less than 48 hours. Portals Parfums follows Martinez’s wildly successful 2016 debut fragrance, Cry Baby Perfume Milk, which quickly sold out and can now be found only on reseller platforms for up to $2,000 a bottle. Working with IFF perfumers Natasha Côté, Patty Hidalgo, and Laurent Le Guernec, Martinez was deeply involved in all aspects of development for the new fragrance collection. Much like Cry Baby Perfume Milk, which arrived creatively packaged in a replica vintage baby bottle, Portals Parfums comes in a striking art sculptured bottle at a full one-foot tall, with a many-eyed creature head that opens like a nesting doll to reveal four glass vials inside. Transporting the wearer to different worlds with just a little spritz, each unique scent is designed to reflect the four classical elements: Water of Intuition, Air of Clarity, Fiery Passion, and Earthy Abundance. Portals Parfums is available as a four-fragrance set, 60 ml total (15 ml each of four scents) in Eau de Parfum spray. Individual refill vials (15 ml) and full-sized bottles (50 ml each) in Eau de Parfum will follow in 2024. The Portals Parfums fragrance collection will serve as a foundation for other Portals products, including a broad collection of scented candles.
