New Barbie commercial

[Phaeton 2]

The best thing about satire is being able to turn it into a money maker. This might not be what Aqua intended but there's little they can do about it now.

they made a pregnant barbie. she, of course, is a teen. that sets a very good example for little kids, dont you think? sarcasm btw

Um who said the pregnant Barbie was a teen? Or that Barbie herself is a teen? Considering how many jobs she's had I've always thought she was a full grown adult  

[The Dinosaur Next Door]

The pregnant Barbie isn't even a Barbie; she's named Madge or something and she is an adult. rolleyes

I want to buy the bratz and have a BURNING PARTY!!!

Anyone want to join?

Barbie was created at a time when the only dolls little girls really had to play with were baby dolls. It was basically like "here girls, all you're good for is poppin' out kids so you might as well practice now." Barbie gave them the option to imagine being an adult, getting to wear grown up clothes, and get to be whatever they wanted. From doctor to teacher to lifeguard to ballet dancer to model to vet and everything inbetween.
And what Barbie isn't (like a mom, for example), her friends like Midge are.

Barbie's shapely form is because she was created after a German doll that was based on a character in a comic strip meant for adults in which the character would use her, uh...assets to get what she wanted when need be.

Mattel has certainly gone through enough to prove Barbie is more than just some blond bimbo. She's basically everything but.


American Girls are also awesome.

And while I dislike Bratz dolls, hurting toys makes me sad... sad

I never had a Barbie when I was younger, and it's not like I had any sisters at the time.

Aquarium was the first CD I ever owned, though. xd  

[~DR.MOOFASA~]

hahah... you just reminded me of this chick in norway (when sean and his bro and i were at the mall)

oh boy, she was awkward. she wore a sparkly wig and "barbie-like" clothes and had a music player blasting the song 'barbie girl' aloud... except SHE was the singer. she covered the song and got her friends to follow her around with feather boas and play that song... to sell her new "CD". she also had a sign that said "i am the next 'aqua'..." lol it was pretty lame, and we were a bit worried they would come near us at one point.

i know that was off topic but it was just such a ridiculous display that i had to mention it.

anyway! yes. barbie... uh... well, panny said it. she's 50. ^^ she's OOOOOOLD. xD

i used to have a case of barbies but i recently gave them away to my mom's friend's two girls ^^ they're still appreciated, even though they're barbies from the 80's.

It's not off topic at all! I would have told that chick that there was a reason why Aqua dropped off the face of the earth should she have came near me.  

[wakusei]

Haha, the next Aqua, huh? So they'll have a one-hit wonder and then fall off the face of the earth? sweatdrop

I liked Aqua, I had Aquarium and listened to them a lot! Buuuut...they're not exactly a group to go down in music history as being much of anything.  

[shauna_marie]

there is another barbie commercial, this time with a dog...

"im a barbie dog, lets go for a jog..."

Agh!
its insane!

I remember listening to the Aqua song in like 5th grade, but only recently started listening to it again. Man, I never realized how mature it was...just goes to show that most kids dont think of things that way. 3nodding

And, Yeah, Bratz were a bit annoying...good thing you don't hear much about them nowadays, ever since their movie...

Speaking of plastic dolls and movies, they are supposed to be making a live action barbie movie....

 

[GuillotineGirl]

I saw that commercial. I thought it was funny with Barbie on rollar blades and a dog that moves on it's own. So pathetic. cool
