| Abstract | She has a net worth of over $1 billion, and holds countless jobs including dentist, astronaut, and police officer. Her face has graced movies, books and television. She has aroused controversy with her image and revealing clothing, and she does this while transcending for five decades. She’s Barbie, the first ever fashion doll.; First introduced at the 1959 New York Toy Fair, Barbie has developed from a plastic doll into an empire. And she flies off the toy shelves into the hands of children every three seconds.; But behind her lavish hair and flawless features are hidden secrets: her connection to a German sex doll, her unrealistic proportions and her struggle to remain politically correct. Living Barbie: 50th Anniversary explores the controversial life of Barbie, the fans who support her and the 50 years of Barbie history to discover how she became the most sought after woman in the world. |
