SORRY JESSICA ALVES, YOU DO NOT NOT LOOK LIKE BARBIE

Up until 2019, Brazilian Rodrigo Alves had dozens of painful plastic surgeries to look like the perfect Ken Doll- including bicep and six-pack enhancement. After all that, he decided he’d rather be the perfect Barbie doll, and had the male surgeries reversed and started transitioning into a “woman.” Can you imagine having your adams apple removed? Now he’s called Jessica Alves, and he’s chalked up over a hundred surgeries hoping to look like Barbie, but looks more like Lil’ Kim. We just HAD to know where he got all the money needed to finance his indulgence and it turns out he inherited millions from his mother’s wealthy parents. We just cannot imagine how Jessica sleeps at night with all this extra padding injected into his/her body…

Barbie Corvette Margot Robbie Memorabilia Perks Pink

MARGOT ROBBIE IS TAKING HOME LOTS OF PINK – AND GREEN!

Now that Barbie has surpassed the BILLION dollar box office haul, studio executives are SO thrilled that they gifted its star and producer, Margot Robbie with THE vintage pink Corvette convertible used in the movie as a thank you. (For those in the know- Angelyne will be jealous!) As we previously revealed, Margot was able to keep all of her custom pink carpet fashions, so this adds to her valuable haul of memorabilia. Don’t think for a second though, that Margot is only walking away with some clothes and a car! My source says she’s also getting a percentage of the box office which will translate into a NICE chunk of change. AND she’s onboard for a sequel…

Barbie Greta Gerwig Margot Robbie Movies Music Taylor Swift Women

BARBIE AND TAYLOR SWIFT ARE BREAKING RECORDS RIGHT AND LEFT

The summer of 2023 has revealed the power of women. Females are dominating the movie world AND the music world. Greta Gerwig’s Barbie had the biggest opening weekend of all time for a film that was not a sequal. The third weekend is expected to bring in a worldwide total of a billion dollars! At the same time, Taylor Swift concerts and albums are smashing records. She’s the first living artist in 60 years to chart 4 albums in the top 10 at once on the Billboard chart. In ONE day she sold over two million tour tickets and held the top 10 spots on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for her Midnights album. Keep in mind, Beyonce’s tour is also raking in the bucks. It’s high time the power of women both as performers and consumers is recognized…

Barbie Barbie Doll Gambling Slot Machine

BARBIE HAS BEEN MANY THINGS, BUT DEFINITELY NOT A GAMBLER

It’s one of the biggest movies of the year so it’s not surprising that Barbie merchandise and branding is everywhere, but there’s ONE place you won’t see it – at the casino! According to a studio insider, executives turned DOWN a lucrative branding deal to feature Barbie on slot machines all around the world. The insider says they didn’t want to tarnish Barbie’s wholesome reputation by associating her with gambling.

Barbie Boxoffice Greta Gerwig Success Women

THE BEST THING ABOUT BARBIE

Warner Bros publicity department must be dominated by women because they did ALL the right things when it came to promoting Barbie. The film has broken all records with one of the biggest weekends in history! So what if they misled the SAG/AFTRA union (see https://janetcharltonshollywood.com/?s=fran+drescher) – it was WORTH it! The best thing about Barbie is not only did it celebrate the importance of women, but it was directed by the extremely likable FEMALE Greta Gerwig. Barbie is the TOP opening film of 2023 and has NOTHING to do with male superheroes! Right now we’re thinking that more than a few of those male CEO’s at Warner Bros should be replaced by females…

LOOKING LIKE MARGOT ROBBIE HAS ITS ADVANTAGES

Rabid fans were lined up at 3 AM at Leicester Square in the UK for the Barbie premier – and that’s 12 hours before the pink carpet event started!

Amanda has made previous appearances in London as Margot’s character Harley Quinn. The lookalike wore pink to the premier and was mobbed by fans begging for photos…

Auction Barbie Margot Robbie Wardrobe

MARGOT ROBBIE: SMARTER THAN SHE LOOKS

Margot Robbie has been channeling Barbie as she appears around the globe on red carpets everywhere promoting the anticipated movie about the legendary doll. Margot has been wearing custom made outfits (above) to duplicate some of Barbie’s most famous costumes. Margot agreed to the cute gimmick with one condition: that she’s able to KEEP all of the outfits. According to a well-placed source, if the movie is the blockbuster like it’s expected to be, she plans to auction off the clothes to benefit her favorite charities, thinking the bigger the box office the more her one-of-a-kind fashions will be worth. THAT’S thinking ahead…

Barbie Reviews Ryan Gosling

RYAN GOSLING IS WAY MORE THAN “JUST” KEN

Here’s a surprise: while Margot Robbie is much appreciated in her starring role as Barbie in the new film, it’s actually Ryan Gosling as “just” Ken who’s getting the rave reviews! Critics and fans are saying amazing things about Ryan’s performance: “He’s the best part of the movie” “It’s the role he was born to play!” “Ken stole the show!” “The best performance of his career! “Ken delivered most of the laughs!” “He deserves an Oscar nomination!” Seriously! And MEN who can be dragged to see Barbie are actually enjoying it. So it turns out Ryan was NOT too old to play the part…

Barbie Billie Eilish Music

BILLIE EILISH: MORE THAN A BARBIE FAN

We did NOT realize that Billie Eilish contributed some of the best music to the Barbie movie, or that she happens to be a huge fan of the original Barbie doll. We haven’t seen a lot of her since her amicable split from musician Jesse Rutherford, but she turned up at the Barbie Hollywood premier looking happy and different. Billie changed her hair color and added pink to her playful, funky wardrobe. (Those SHOES!) No sign of Gucci at THIS event. At 21, Billie is already worth 30 million dollars…

Barbie

A SNIPPET OF BARBIE

My EXACT experience as a young child- I was given rubbery baby dolls for Christmas that I didn’t want to feed, wearing diapers I didn’t want to change. I dreamed of having a doll with a beautiful WARDROBE ….. Margot Robbie actually looks more like Barbie than anyone else probably could.

This is the Barbie Teaser Trailer
