In the comments of a video Mellencamp recently posted on Instagram, not everyone was kind. The video, captioned, “I felt a little sad about sending the kids to school today. It lasted 3 minutes ? Who else out there feels me?” have a lot of writing in the comments that they can relate to.
And then there were other comments that weren’t so nice. “She went too far with the work on her face,” “I think you don’t bleach anymore now because the hair is dead and don’t go shorter you need someone who knows what they are doing,” “Wrinkles under your eyes you are to young for that grow out your hair,” “Abusing your kids.. wow,” were some of the nasty comments Mellencamp’s video received.

In her latest Instagram post, a carousel of photos including selfies and screenshots of some of the bullying comments Mellencamp has received, the reality star and podcast host told people who made the ignorant comments that she wants to hold them accountable for their actions.
“I love using social media to share my life, my family, my struggles… but also my sense of humor, my personality, a 360 view of who I am,” she began her caption. “What I don’t understand is the need to leave negative comments attacking my face, my body, my person. I know we’re told to just ignore it, but why should we? Why shouldn’t we hold these people accountable for saying things they wouldn’t say to someone in person. Things they don’t want to say to them or their mother, daughter, or sister.”
She ended her caption saying, “So I’m sharing this to say: keep scrolling. If not, maybe look in the mirror and ask yourself why saying something rude on a stranger’s page brings you joy.”

Mellencamp is known to her social media followers as someone who shares her experiences in hopes of helping others. In early December, Mellencamp updated her followers on her ongoing melanoma journey with photos of her surgical scars and information about pathology findings. He also constantly reminds his fans to be checked throughout his journey.
“Finally here with another melanoma update, and it’s one I’m happy to share. The pathology returned – the surgery was successful and the margins were clear. I also got the genetic test results and there are no mutations to worry about,” he wrote.
She continued her caption by reminding her followers that mammograms are also necessary. “And I just had a healthy mammogram (please don’t forget this too, ladies).”
He then explained his newfound sense of calm. “So, I say goodbye to 11 melanomas and 3 lymph nodes—I’m so happy I hardly know you—and hello to a new sense of peace. It has been an eye opener to how quickly things can change and it is a lesson I will never forget, or stop talking about. I want you all to be proactive so you don’t have to experience this. Let my scars be your inspiration to get preventative treatment.”

Mellencamp also recently shared a family photo with a caption that talked about anxiety awareness. “Here’s the thing about anxiety: you can show the world a smile, but still struggle inside. There are days when it sits there, gnawing at you, waiting to be released, controlling your mind. And there are days when it’s off and you feel amazing,” he wrote.
“Since my melanoma, they’ve thrown off my hormones, and my sleep and anxiety have gotten worse. A placebo effect? I’m not sure. That’s why I’m asking all the women out there who have the same struggle— how has your year been so far? Being vulnerable about these things and reminding myself that I’m not alone in this always tends to help. We’re better together.”
One of his followers thanked him for talking about a topic that isn’t often discussed publicly. “Thank you for being open about this. If we normalize mental health anxiety and awareness, the world will be a better place. Mental health education and acceptance will create a huge, collective, healing outpouring.
