Melody Valentine is one of the main characters in Josie and the Pussycats.

The co-founder and drummer for the Pussycats, Melody is a voluptuous blond and speaks in a sing-song voice, denoted by the musical notes in her cartoon word balloons. She is an absent-minded, bubbly sort of character often taken to using silly, nonsense language.

In the comics, her extreme sex appeal (and its effects on the male population) is often use as a plot device.

In the cartoons, whenever the group is in a dangerous or potentially dangerous situation, Melody's ears would wiggle. In the Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space series, she adopts a cute little alien by the name of Bleep (who can only say "bleep," of course).

In the cartoons, her speaking voice is performed by Jackie Joseph , and her singing voice is performed by Cherie Moor (formerly known as Cheryl Ann Stepplemoor, and later better known as Cheryl Ladd). Bleep's voice was done by Don Messick, the voice of Scooby-Doo, Astro, Dr. Benton Quest, Boo-Boo, and more.

She was played by Tara Reid in the 2001 live-action motion picture based on the comic book.
