In March 1959, the Barbie doll first appeared at the New York Toy Fair. More than 60 years have passed since then, and the popularity of the plastic lady has only increased every year.
All Barbies are German by origin. In the early 1950s, a Lily doll appeared in German tobacco shops, created by a cartoonist based on a popular adult comic strip. Ruth Handler saw her at a stall in Switzerland. Then she bought three "Lilies" at once and converted the doll into a version acceptable for children. Before going on sale, Lily received a new name - Barbie.
Barbie is the favorite toy of millions of girls. True, sometimes it happens that girls grow up, and love for dolls grows stronger. Then adult girls create Barbies themselves, only from themselves.
Valeria Lukyanova
Among the Russian-speaking girls, Valeria is probably the most famous "live Barbie". Wasp waist, long slender legs and wide-open blue eyes - the girl really looks exactly like a doll. According to Lukyanova, plastic surgeons only once participated in creating her image - with their help, Valeria enlarged her breasts.
Cindy jackson
This woman is the very first "living Barbie". Now Cindy is 61 years old, 27 of them have been compared to a doll. According to Jackson herself, she did not at all strive to become the embodiment of an "old-fashioned toy", just over time, after a series of operations (of which the woman had more than 50), the journalists decided that Cindy looks exactly like Barbie.
This is how Cindy looked before carrying out numerous operations.
The woman spent more than 100 thousand dollars on plastic surgery. All the money is part of the inheritance that Jackson received from his father.
Angelica Kenova
Despite such a telling surname, Angelica does all the manipulations with her appearance not at all in order to find her "Ken". She stubbornly denies any surgical intervention and assures that the resemblance to a doll is a fortunate coincidence and a gift from nature.
Anastasia Shpagina
Anastasia herself does not consider herself a Barbie. The girl is sure that she is a fairy and brings light and goodness to the world. It seems that nectar is not collecting yet. When you look at Anastasia, the first thing you pay attention to are huge eyes. Now Shpagina is 24 years old, the girl has been wearing such makeup since she was 15 years old.
Karina Barbie and her mom
A living Barbie from Karaganda, who settled in Moscow for a long time. The girl herself really looks like a doll. Recently, her mother began to support Karina not only in words: the woman also put on pink clothes and became a blonde. Frankly, Karina bears little resemblance to a real Barbie, but the girl considers herself ideal.
Aydjan Aliyeva and Ilian Iliev
Bulgarian couple, real Barbie and Ken. When you look at these guys, you can hardly believe that they can breathe and are not made of plastic. The "doll" couple swears that nature has endowed them with such an appearance, and they have never turned to plastic surgeons.
Even with dark hair, the girl looks more like a doll than an ordinary living person.
