Melody Perkins (born January 28, 1974 in Wiesbaden, Germany) is an actress and a model. She grew up in Sacramento, California. Her major in college was in quantitative economics.

An accomplished dancer, she has performed with the Sacramento Ballet Company and the Jazz Unlimited Dance Company. She also models for the Lands' End company, and broke into acting during a trip around Europe. She said of the experience: "A few years ago, I was traveling in Europe modeling and starred in commercial over there in Italy and France." Nevertheless she has not abandoned modelling entirely, saying "I still do [it] when I can."

Perkins is perhaps best known for her appearance as the villainess Astronema in the series Power Rangers: In Space. She said on the role: "Love it. It's fun being the bad gal." As Astronema, she was well known for the skin-tight costume that her character wore, and pointed out when asked: "It's really cold when it's cold, and hot when it's hot outside." She reprised the role, this time as the reformed Karone, in the following series Power Rangers: Lost Galaxy. She is the only person to have played the archenemy of the Power Rangers in one season (Astronema in Power Rangers: In Space), and a Power Ranger the next season. She replaced Valerie Vernon who left to battle leukemia, as the Pink Galaxy Ranger.
