Having participated at Barbie’s Anniversary should have come as a hint, really! Heidi Klum now presents herself as a Mattel Barbie doll part of the new collection “Blonde Ambition” that will be released by Mattel in September).
Willowy blonde (with long hair), the new Heidi Klum Barbie has no baby bump (which makes me sad since I do prefer Heidi pregnant), and doesn’t look much like Heidi neither! (the story continues with more images right after the jump!)
Also, just like her real life model, the Barbie Heidi Klum is a charity supporter. Mattel’s doll wears a $555 charity ring to “Save the Children” with Bvlgari. How chic! But still doesn’t look like Heidi!
Compared to this, the Twilight dolls inaccuracies really fall in line with the new dolls trends! How far will they push the idealization boundaries? (photos via 1, 2, 3)

It’s only an expensive Barbie! Okay it’s for charity but since this Barbie is nothing special just donate the money?
This idealization does worry me. A new generation is growing up thinking this is normal. Bless the parents that are wise and teach their children well.
It’s like Heidi doll wears a Balmain knock-off. I still love Heidi and Barbie.
It’s great news! I love Heidi, and I hope I’ll loves Barbie, becouse Heidi in it.
That it’s for charity is great but to decide to have a Barbie modelled after oneself: how navel-gazing!
I think it is cute and will be a mos def for fans of Heidi and collectors of Barbie. : )
