Hot or Creepy, Maybe Both? Real-Life People Who Have Become Dolls !

Did you know about the 'Barbie Flu'? Real-life women (and men!) are converting themselves into living dolls by any means necessary. .Hot or Creepy? You decide...

Anzhelika Kenova: Russia
Anzhelika is a newer "human doll" on the Barbie look-alike scene. The mid-twenty year old admits to having had plastic surgery with her waist reduced to 20-inches, and that's likely alongside an increased bust-line. It seems, a part of the incentive for these dramatic physical alterations is a worldwide recognition that it leads to financial gain and celebrity-ism. When put into this context the bizarreness of the trend begins to make sense. Or does it?


Justin Jedica: U.S.A
Justin's been tagged the Ken look-alike, and he now rivals the original Barbie look-alike, Ukarian Valeria Lukyanova. After meeting his counter part at a photo shot in NYC, he blasted her for being "a total fake". What?! Who's fake here? Evidently he decided to show-her-up by dressing in drag as a Barbie doll himself. Okay, now we're really confused.

Vanilla Chamu: Japan
It's quite popular in East Asia for people to undergo cosmetic surgery to enlarge their eyes. But wow, Vanilla Chamu's new look is extremely different compared to her "before" picture! Do her family members even recognize her today? It's said she's spent a whopping $100K and underwent 30 procedures for her "doll" transformation. Additionally, she claims she's not finished and won't be "content until she's a perfect 'French doll'".

American Model Aaron Bruckner
Germany's GQ magazine had Aaron modeling as a Ken doll, and he does have the "look" nailed! Notice how he strikes a pose with his hand gestures, it's perfect but kinda eerie, right? Apparently the illusion is the work of stylists, photography and photoshop. Check-out his modeling catalog, you'll be surprised as he's simply hot and not creepy at all!

Alina Kovaleskaya: Ukraine
Alina is another young gal from Odessa that has gained a following for her choice to look like a real-life Barbie! What is this fetish with Mattel's Barbie? Perhaps with parents encouraging daughters to play with the dolls, it's not too surprising they would want to bring "Barbie" aesthetics into their adult lives. Barbie's "look" has been blamed for setting unrealistic standards of beauty, could this odd phenomenon be taking it too far?

Valeria Lukyanova: Ukraine
She's one of the first to start the "Barbie Flu" contagion and has reportedly spent a half a million dollars on her physical transformation, which includes a tiny 19-inch waistline. Justin Jedica, the Ken look-alike claims her use of Photoshop renders her a "fake". But if it's a question about "self-construction" and "How real is the Internet?” then Justin himself, is not innocent. Perhaps Valeria's Internet personality and real life collides as she’s now dubbed the "Space Barbie", and coaches spiritual out-of-body travel and other "unreal" otherworldly rituals.
