Taylor Swift meets Rachel Bloom in this millennial breakup anthem and ridiculous Sims 2-filled music video to match. Inspired by the grasping for relationships and meaning we’ve all had to face while in quarantine.

irectors Statement:
“When you’re looking for production value, look for Sims 4. When you’re looking for dRaMa, look no further than the Sims 2. As the pandemic shut me – and everyone – away from the world, I found solace in my old friends in old neighborhoods, but I still don’t know how the party function works, so all I wanted to do was make everyone WooHoo and then die in weird ways. Did I get a little too invested? Sure. But some things never change.”
Biography
Amelita is a future music icon blazing through the intersection of diva pop music and comedy that some would argue does not actually exist. She's brought her continuous world tour to venues and comedy festivals all over New York City and the continent since 2016 (she's officially international because she's performed twice in Toronto, OK??). Like the trailblazing pop stars that have come before her, Amelita will continue touring, should the conditions allow, until someone offers her a Las Vegas residency or a Christmas Special on CBS, whichever comes first.
