Kylie Minogue and Shania Twain among women honoured with Barbie doll tribute
Kylie Minogue, Shania Twain and Helen Mirren are among eight women that have been honoured with their own Barbie dolls for International Women’s Day.The “global storytellers” have been chosen by Mattel to have Barbie dolls modelled after their likeness to kick off the brand’s 65th anniversary celebrations.The toymaker said that Minogue’s “glittering career has kept her firmly rooted in the present whilst defining and celebrating much of our collective past”, while praising Twain for being one of the “renowned trailblazers breaking down barriers for women in country music”.They added that Mirren was “one of the world’s best known and most respected actresses, along with being an advocate for embracing and celebrating self-expression, aging and fashion”.Mirren, who played the narrator in the record-breaking Barbiemovie, said she was “absolutely blown away” by the honour (via Sky News).“It’s a very special thing and something I can add to my list of my favourite achievements – becoming a Dame of the British Empire, having an Oscar, having a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and having my own Barbie,” she said.The one-of-a-kind doll is modelled after Mirren’s red carpet look at Cannes last year, where she wore a blue dress completed with blue hair.The doll also has its own mini Oscar accessory, in recognition of her 2007 Best Actress Academy Award for The Queen.Minogue’s Barbie is fashioned after her all-red outfit in the music video for her mega hit ‘Padam Padam‘, while Twain’s recreates the outfit and top hat from her ‘Man I Feel Like A Woman’ music video – completed by the long pink hair from her ‘Queen Of Me’ tour.Other women honoured include Oscar-winning actor and producer Viola Davis, content creator Maira Gomez
