CQ: How many do you have and what got you started? I estimate about 30 Barbies. A lot of my Barbies are from these two teenagers who played with Barbie, but grew out of them so they gave them to me. That is where a lot of them came from. Also, a lot of them came from my cousin, mom and dad. Ever since I had my first Barbie, I really like them and I like dressing them, I like playing with them, I just like looking at them and taking pictures of them. And now I have a collection of all these Barbies.
CQ: Do you share with your sister? Does mom make you? Yes I do! But I found one really nice Snow White Barbie lying on the street - It could have cost thirty dollars and I don’t let my sister touch that one or the Dorothy Barbie from Wizard of Oz. Sometimes with the others we like to put makeup on them or dye their hair with markers, but I’m afraid she might put makeup on those two and they are really special to me.
CQ: If you were going to act out a scene w/ your Barbies, who would you use and describe the scene: I use my Barbies as models because I want to be a fashion designer. I would use my Dorothy Barbie , she’s my favorite because she is really pretty. I would use my Snow White Barbie and I would use the one I dyed her hair and dressed like Avril Lavigne. I would also use one that I don’t have a name for her, but she is really pretty and has brown hair – my aunt got that for me. I would use all five of my Ken dolls and 2 Kelly dolls. I would have them act out a scene in two cars, one with the boys and one with the girls. They would crash the cars and then they would become friends and then at the end they all have the same job.
CQ: If you could choose one of your Barbies to be your best friend, who would it be and why? My Dorothy Barbie and a collector Birthday Barbie my best friend gave me. I think if they were alive they would be nice people .
CQ: Do you play with your Barbies ? What do you play? I put them out on display to later take pictures of them…they’re my models. I do sometimes play with them. I want to be a fashion designer and I dress them in clothing and with my cousin, make fashion magazines because we don’t have real life models. So I take pictures of them.
CQ: What Barbie are you dying to have? There are these collector Barbies that are really pretty and I want them, there are two of them: Barbies with the outfit of the color of your birthstone and they have a dog and a leash with the color of your birthstone too. I really, really want that. And the other is a new Holiday Barbie, she is really pretty and I want her. There is also this nice Barbie House that I want to get and a Barbie computer game that comes with little cards and you match them.
CQ: Do you think you will always collect Barbie? Will you give it to your little girls if you have them? I would give them to them, but they would also be mine. But I would also get my kids Barbies. I think I will play with Barbies until I am old. They're my favorite toys, I like collecting them and playing with them and all these things...I would still give them to my kids but I would play with them too. After they're done they could put them back in container and bring them back to my room because they're mine. I really like Barbie. |
