Melanie Martinez fans have expressed their disappointment with the popstar over her VIP package on her Portals tour. The description of the package on Ticketmaster promises an "interactive photo experience" for VIP ticketholders, leading fans to believe this meant an in-person meet-and-greet with Martinez herself. However, this wasn't the case as the photo experience was Martinez in the form of an AI-generated hologram of that greets fans in her prosthetic mask, so the fans didn't get to meet the singer in person.

Same thing." Though some fans did defend Martinez, noting that a meet-and-greet was not mentioned in the package.

The concert was so fun." @katebellla I thought it was cute everyones hating it never said anywhere there was going to be a meet and greet.
