Report: Kardashian sisters to become Barbie dolls
AP photo
Kim Kardashian is about to be rendered in plastic. As a Barbie doll.
Us magazine reports that Kim, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian are to be “immortalized as Barbie’s pals in an upcoming limited-edition doll line” and that “The dolls will reflect the girls’ measurements and may even comes in Kardashian-designed outfits.”
Kim’s hinted at the new project via Twitter. On Christmas Day she and the official Barbie Twitter account exchanged messages. (Barbie: ” Long time no see! What did Ken get you for Christmas? Miss you doll!” Kim: Merry Christmas Barbs.”)
No word yet if anyone’s considering creating a Kim Kardashian Wedding Barbie complete with three wedding dresses and a mini divorce decree.

WOW, there are not enough words to express how stupid this is. Genious for marketing, but terrible for kids. Who in the world would want their child to make any of these three their idol? *Shaking my head*

for god’s sake, why even write about this sh*t? I guess they are going to make a black ken doll as their accessory.

Does it also come with slime that these creatures ooze upon the Earth? Let’s also make it realistic with dresses big enough so that every mans hand can fit up it.

Pulleze! They already ARE Barbie’s. Totally plastic and not a brain in their heads. Would be nice if they were MUTE like Barbie as well.

[...] When guys used to say, “she’s a doll”…we meant she was a very attractive woman. However, The Kardashian sisters are taking it to another level according to “The Buzz“. [...]

It’s simply amazing how shallow and ignorant the typical middle class housewife must be to be so fascinated by this ugly bimbo and every move she makes.
If the middle class women weren’t so enamored by this bimbo, she wouldn’t be on every TV gossip show and the cover of every celebrity magazine in the check out line.

These women, as talent-less as they are, earned 65 million dollars last year. Now they are creating another money maker. There are many many people who watch this show, and will buy the dolls for their girls. They are constantly creating ways to make more money.

The true test will be how many people actually buy them. I’m sure they’ll make millions, as usual.

WHY did I go to medical school when all I needed to do was just be an airhead bimbo and I’d make millions for doing nothing! But I wouldn’t have the personal reward of helping others…a labor of love at this point.

Kim is famous because of that Ray J tape of her giving him head. It’s on the internet, easy to access. Apparently she and everyone else is over it and could care less. Sadly this girl has no talent and because she gives head and has a nice figure with a pretty face she’s now a millionaire. And the rest of her talent-less family have joined the spotlight. But that’s the world we live in. KK isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. You’d think the over the top fake wedding was enough but no it just gave everyone something to talk about for weeks. SMH
But I agree with markie mark, this should be apart of the Bratz line. I’m so surprised Barbie would taint it’s image with a Kardashian. My girls definitely won’t have one. Heck I don’t even buy Bratz (big no no). And some of the current Barbie line is too much for my taste and definitely not for my children. I’ll just pay extra for the Disney dolls. Lol
Ugh

WTF is Mattell thinking?? the creator of Barbie must be turning over in her grave. totally destroys their credibility. box will have to be extra wide to fit the Kim doll. know why Barbie never had kids ? it’s because Ken cums in a separate box !!!!

I’ve been told it’s a recycling thing. they are using the shaved off plastic from Bruce Jenner and it will be cast in the K-Barbie Molds.

And why does America suck? That’s right, we “immortalize” people like this. Why a lady who pioneered in the fight against ovarian or breast cancer or actually DID something important. This is pathetic beyond works.
