Tony Melendez may have been born without arms, but that didn't stop him
from dancing, dating, playing the guitar and enjoying life to the fullest.
Tony was born without arms in 1962 as a result of his mother taking the
prescription drug, Thalidimide.
Today, Tony is known around the world for playing the guitar with his
feet. In 1985, Tony began playing and singing in the Los Angeles area.
Just two years later, his life was changed forever when he performed for
the Pope before a live audience of 6,000 people and a TV audience of
millions. Tony was instantly thrown into the limelight.
But before Tony became famous for jamming on the guitar with his toes,
he had a few dating obstacles to overcome, especially in his high school
years.
