She’s So Blonde and Beautiful


If there were ever a doll who deserved a song, it’s Barbie. And I don’t mean the silly little Aqua song. I’m referring to a song, or an ode, to all that Barbie games have become throughout the world. Who knew that a small plastic and rubber doll could have such a world-wide impact.

Barbie blew into the lives of little girls everywhere decades ago, and she hasn’t changed much. Barbie games are fun because, despite her rather generous proportions, Barbie is a girl who could be real. She’s not a baby doll and she lets you do what you really want to do – dress her up in fabulous outfits.

Barbie has inspired many girls to pay a bit more attention to their own style and when Barbie began taking on so many careers, she even got a bit more interesting to those who hadn’t cared for her empty-headed fashion nature previously. Now that Barbie is a doctor, a lawyer and a veterinarian, she’s deemed acceptable for any girl to play with. The fact that she’s obviously intelligent while also attractive is a nice testament to the times we live in.
