A History of Barbie in Pop Culture
Even at 53, Barbie is as hot as ever! Earlier this year the 2012 Barbie For President doll was released, and Barbie's latest fabulous incarnation is being dubbed "Drag Queen Barbie," although Mattel and the drag-queen designers who created her deny that was their intention.
Life in plastic might be fantastic, but according to other rumors, Barbie will ditch her artificial skin and miniature wardrobe when she comes alive on the big screen. There's reportedly a project in development that will be the first Barbie live-action film, but she'll surely adapt easily. Since her creation in 1959, Barbie has had 125 different careers and a steady place in pop culture.
