Brother is a character created by Melanie Martinez for her debut album, Cry Baby. He is portrayed by Edwin Zabala in "Dollhouse" and Ian Volandt in "Cry Baby."

Life[]

Brother is Cry Baby's older brother. He appears in the music video for "Cry Baby" as a young boy. He lights his mom's cigarette, foreshadowing his teenage smoking addiction in "Dollhouse". It is also shown that he is the reason why Cry Baby was given her name, as he wrote it down on the birth certificate when his mother groaned about his sister being a "crybaby".

He is also mentioned in "Dollhouse" as part of Cry Baby's family. Cry Baby mentions that he is "smoking cannabis", and in the story book it's described that he "always comes home stoned" indicating that he has a marijuana addiction, which his mother does not seem to care about. The music video shows him smoking and growing marijuana plants in his room.

In "WOMB", the lyric "And I know my brother, he'll make the journey later on" suggests that he is still alive after Cry Baby's death.
