So, it was brought to my attention.. that the famous Barbie and Ken have finally broken up after a lovely 43 years of... "play time". Being a little girl and looking up to barbie (yes, not the brightest idea... not to idealistic if you ask me) it was a major shocker to hear such news!! Apparently, Barbie is now seeing Blaine. -- a boogie-board, boy-toy Aussie -- and that Ken, at long last, was coming out of Barbie's dream closet. Flamer?? Woah. Well, makes sense i suppose. The way society was in 1961... coming out would have spelled career disaster for Ken. Hmm, Barbie and Blaine, and Ken being gay. Nice change Mattel? Well, this other theory has been developed that perhaps it WAS just ad marketing ploy that brought this all together. Also, i'd just like to add about how much this situation is similar to Demi Moore and Ashton eh? Being around the same age as Barbie, and getting a new, young 'boy toy' was just what this dull situation needed! More Publisity. Throughout the years, Barbie has ACTUALLY influenced young girls.. so what, is a divorce // break-up supposed to be idealized now?? Or is it just the norm?? Jeepers. Ken was basically another accessory apparently... :( Poor guy :P Just like her little, cute, pink convertible or
her beach house. Fun to have, but not necessary. Besides, Ken was never really all that hot, and Barbie knew it. But that GI Joe –- now, he was a doll!!
