(she played his sister on the show), they toured together for years as standup comics. They also wrote and produced ''Witness Infection'', a feature film that premiered at a film festival in 2020.''MADtv''
Meleán joined the cast of ''MADtv'' in 2002 as a featured performer in its seventh season. She was the second Hispanic cast member to join the show (after Cubans, Cuban-born Nelson Ascencio in 1999) and the first Latin female. Her first skit, a parody of Britney Spears' "I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman, Not a Girl" video, quickly gained her fans and notoriety, and she was promoted to repertory status for the following season. She also impersonated Kelly Osbourne, Jenna Bush, Asia Argento, Jennifer Lopez and Drew Barrymore, and replaced Kathryn Fiore's character in the Kappa Kappa Kappa Sorority sisters sketch.Filmography
