Real Life Barbie

There have been lots of new articles about the "Real Life Barbie", many women have tried to emulate the doll by getting different plastic surgery procedures to try and look like her more and more. Here is an article about one of these women Valeria Lukyanova, who has made it her life aim to look exactly like the doll. http://www.globalpost.com/dispatches/globalpost-blogs/wanderlust/barbie-ukrainian-woman-mattel 

There have also been lots of different studies into whether it would actually be possible to be the real life Barbie, taking Barbie's measurements and applying them to a real live woman. The picture below illustrates the effects. Many women want to look exactly like Barbie even paying up £500,000 for plastic surgery like self proclaimed real life Barbie Sarah Burge.







This is a picture of Steph the actress that I am going to use for my real life Barbie. As you can see she has long blonde hair although when I film her it will be straightened and she will be wearing a lot of makeup like Barbie. She'll not play a major part in the film as it will predominately be stop-motion. She would feature in the final moments of the film where it is revealed it is just someone acting out the dolls lives.
Steph will also feature in the both of the posters. I will either use the poster of her all "Barbied up" or the poster where she is strung out on alcohol and drugs.
