That Barbie has a last name!!! I was in a forum a while ago and we were discussing Barbie dolls. A couple of us became suspicious of Barbie because of her vast wealth...cars, beach house, swimming pool, the big rock on her finger (She didn't have a job, you know) Anyway, we came to the conclusion that anyone without a last name has got to be Shady. Imagine my shock, as I watched "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" and discovered that her full name is Barbie Roberts!!

I was just watching millionaire and I was like this has to be a trick question, I didn't know she had a last name.
But Barbie is a multi-career lady their, but house else could she afford all those cars, malibu houses and pay for all of her friends too. Plus you know she supporting Ken, he ain't got no job, he's always wearing that golfing outfit.
But, Mocha did you see the question about Star trek I think that was a trick question cause we were all setting here thinking James Earl Jones was in star trek instead of Star Wars......I guess I'll never be a millionaire http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gif

i had valentine barbie *which i think i was the only one who bought it* it was my first barbie, she's still in mint condition. she was a BRUNETTE *this was 1984 or 85, i think*. she had this red heart-shaped top and a white skirt with red hearts on it. ruby red lips...man, she was the bomb! i got graduation barbie in 97 when i graduated high school. *gift from my mum, ho knows how much i loved barbie*

Barbie Roberts...that's interesting. So I guess Ken's last name is Roberts right? They did get married didn't they? If so, how could she marry a dude w/ no job?! I guess w/ all those jobs she had, he didn't need to have one!lol Did you see that new Barbie that swims now? That's kinda scary. Soon they're gonna make one that walks, then that's just gonna be really scary! Did anyone ever have that Twirler Curl Barbie where you got that little thing to put her hair in and it twisted it? Did someone mention having Rock 'n' Roll Barbie? I had that...it had a tape of Barbie and her band "singing". That was fun...aww the memories. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

in answer to the barbie marraige question, yes ken and barbie did allegedly get married. there was a wedding barbie AND a wedding ken. he was in a white tux with this awful shimmery white collar and cummerbund. he matched barbie's dress, whipped litle bitch that he was. anyway, my personal opinion is that somewhere out there is an alimony barbie. she left ken and got the porsche, the dream house and custody of thier baby *there WAS a pregnant barbie but they banned it because they said it was too anatomically incorrect...more on that later*. barbie, in her alimony settlement, was also granted a corporate position in ken's law firm, leaving him to be some broke-ass street walker *either that or a chippendale, my mind hasn't gotten that far yet* and barbie ran off with the pool boy, who was probably ken's frat brother....

zchi4life,
tracy and todd?! i CAN'T believe you came up with that...you're RIGHT! tracy had red hair! i remember i thought that was cool cause i have red hair too. i don't think barbie and ken actually had CHILDREN. i know there was skipper, which was barbie's little sister...and kendra who came later, which was ANOTHER little sister. *and where are barbie's parents, i ask you??* there WAS a barbie which was "pregnant" and you could "take out" the baby/fetus but this was taken off the shelves rather quickly because it 1. gave children the idea that babies came from mother's "stomachs" and 2. you could pop off the front of her stomach and take out the child. not too anatomically correct. so i don't think barbie actually HAD children...maybe she was just the eternal babysitter.
and about g.i.joe being a secret father of barbie's alleged children, i say definately. ken was SUCH a wuss! remember the "cool" version of ken that came with the earring? it was rumored that this version of ken looked to "homosexual" and was snatched up by gay men everywhere. seriously, ken was a pansy. barbie wanted a real man, ken was off playing golf or something *probably with tracy's husband todd" and g.i. joe was her "real american hero". 'nuff said.
one more quick thing: i'd be VERY interested to know what the guys on this board think about this whole conversation. i know they've gotta be sitting at thier computers, reading these posts and thinking "no WONDER i still don't understand women...i'm trying to create serious topics and they're talking about barbie dolls". but we ladies ALL know this is a VERY serious topic... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

I had the Maxie doll too (remember her cartoon? Why did she get a cartoon, but Barbie didn't? Or did Barbie have a cartoon?) Anyway, Maxie wasn't as cool as Barbie b/c she had bigger feet...they were huge compared to Barbie's. I think she was bigger overall. But even though she had big feet, at least her shoes stayed on better than Barbie's did. Man, all my Barbies were shoeless! LOL http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif But ya know, I liked Maxie's car...remember she had a little 4 x 4? That was sweet cuz I wanted a Jeep when I was little.

(but you know i'm jumping in) LOL Getting back to her many careers...it is my theory that Barbie is the reason why people can't find decent jobs. The chick has like 4,000 jobs! Every 2 months she has a new job...how does she get hired? She has an unstable job history. And if she's adding new ones, when does she work? How many hours does HER week have? When does hse have time to go to her Malibu beach house?
I'm glad someone brought up the siblings. Let's do some math. Barbie is like 40, right? Which means, IF she has parents (I've never seen them), they're like 60 - 65...What the HELL is she doing with a 2-year old sister (Kelly)??? Skipper I can understand, she's 16 or 17 but Kelly perplexes me.

The Facts, Just the Facts.....
Name: Barbie Millicent Roberts
Hometown: Wisconcin,USA
Age: 41
Barbie not only has over a billion jobs, but she has also served as a Medic Sergeant in Desert Storm. During that same year(1992), Barbie was also a presidential candidate. (I wonder who ran against her.) Ms. Roberts owns 43 pets, including a chimp and 21 dogs. After she graduated from Willows High School, she worked as a teen fashion model. Barbie also went to college. Since, we here on GreekChat represent many different colleges and universities, I'm sure one of us actually had her for a room mate or shared one or two classes with her. (Passed her in the hall once???) Anyway, do yall think she's part of a sorority?? I'm sure she is, afterall she is Barbie...the girl who has everything!!

~Alan (ken's friend actually married Midge (Barbie's friend)
~Kelly (one of barbie's sister's) was never heard of until the marriage of Alan and Midge(she was the flowergirl)

Ya'll crazy. RIP Tutti? You all are just too funny!
BTW, I saw a 20/20 special on Barbie (maybe 20/20) and the woman who designed her said Barbie was named after her daughter's nickname (she wanted another name closer to her daughter's real name, but that was already copyrighted). And I'm pretty sure she said Ken was named after her son. Meaning Barbie would be Ken's sister.
Assuming that's true, I certainly hope Barbie and Ken didn't get married because I ain't down with that incestuous stuff. I mean, dang, Barbie. I know Ken was the only man around, but weren't you worried about having kids with 5 eyes? Barbie was one freaky-@ss woman.

This is all too interesting (and hilarious)... I did a massive paper on Barbie for a Women's Studies class.
Did y'all know that if Barbie was a human being she would have to walk on all fours like a monkey? She's so ill-proportioned there would be no way her waist would hold up the upper half of her body. She would be well over six feet tall and probably have severely mauled feet from walking on her toes for 50 years, as well as some serious internal organ problems because she would have an 18 inch waist.
I gotta say the most disappointing day in this history of Barbie (to me) was the day Barbie got a VISA card and went shopping. Sad sad sad....
I worked at Toys R Us for a year as well, and let me tell you some of those discontinued Barbies were pretty umm... interesting.
And Ken gets even more strange every year. Last I saw he was a figure skater wearing some sort of shiny disco-ball lookin' shirt with tights... *shrug*

And Ken gets even more strange every year. Last I saw he was a figure skater wearing some sort of shiny disco-ball lookin' shirt with tights... *shrug*

As a male I thought the whole topic was funny, and was reading the thread while chuckling to myself until I came across the part of etienne's post that went:
he matched barbie's dress, whipped litle bitch that he was.
At which point I have to confess I completely lost it for a few minutes in the middle of a school computer lab! I had tears in my eyes! ROFL.
I am reasonably recogizable on campus as a Fraternity president, Greek council VP, and Student Government Rep. So everyone wanted to know what was so funny . . .
And of course I couldn't tell them that it was a web conversation about Barbie dolls, which just made me laugh harder . . .
But you are right, Ken was a little pansy, and I'm glad my GI Joe figures captured him and had him put to death years ago http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif
(the guy was sniveling to the end).
However, since he was such a pansy, and since ZChi4Life pointed out they never got married, isn't it possible that Ken was just her back-up? As Chris Rock put it: "penis under glass".
Poor bastard . . . to be strung along for 20 years! What a tease! (although she did "keep" the deadbeat loser) http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif
(Sorry, couldn't resist commentating, its a nice break from planning Recruitment, Dues schedules, and disciplinary hearings)

James - thanks for the input! IMHO, men would have conversations JUST LIKE THIS about G.I. Joe, and the Star Wars and He-Man dolls (not "action figures", just suck it up and admit they are dolls). My little brother was always kidnapping my Barbies so they could be G.I. Joe's girlfriend (you see, she IS a hussy) - and I would take them back because... whatever, Barbie is about seven inches tall and G.I.Joe was about three inches tall and MY Barbie was not datin' no short short man!
The bride and groom Barbies were Tracy and Todd.
ZChi4Life - I DID have the Twirler Curl Barbie, only mine was called Golden Curl Barbie, and she came in this FINE gold lame pantsuit, and also came with a "curling iron" that was held together by one of those little round rubber bands that went on braces....
Now, I hate to admit this - but no-one ever explained to me that the copper wires in the Barbie's head were for curling purposes! (I was about seven) I didn't understand that the point was to take a lock of Barbie hair (with wires in it), roll it on the fake curling iron, and then it would be curled. And the wires got in the way - you couldn't use Barbie's little brush and comb very well with them.
So.... I cut all the wires out! They were anchored at her hairline on her forehead. Only, with my plastic safety scissors, I couldn't really cut close enough to Barbie's scalp to get the whole wire off, so they were still there, but really super short. So my Golden Curl Barbie had this little wiry mohawk ridge running along the front of her head, and the d@mned hair never would curl.
What a disappointment... I think I ended up donating that one to the G.I. Joe cause...

Thats a good question girl because.....(drum roll, please!)
BARBIE AND KEN ARE BROTHER and SISTER!!!!
YEs, it is TRUE!! The original creator of the two dolls named them after her son and daughter. I was laughing so hard when I read the posts about the wedding, pregnancy, etc.
I remember those dolls.
So I guess you now know the truth. The Barbie/Ken saga is the longest running episode of Jerry Springer.

OK, not to bring all this up again, but apparently she is running for president again this election cycle. She must be the mattel version of that Liberterian candidate who ran for president every cycle for like 40 years. Anyway, what I wanna know is why she gotta have the Elizabeth Dole hairdo? See link below:
http://kidscollecting.about.com/kids/kidscollecting/library/weekly/aa043000a.htm
also, apparently she has a platform at:
http://barbie.com/girls/wob/bfp/
the site is down now. I think her campaign staff pulled it down since her numbers are off in the latest Gallup poll. Apparently her perscription medicare plan needs some retooling and there were some numerical discrepancies in her social security proposal that were pointed out at the last mattel debate. So I think her staff is working on the site. Since I am disgusted with both Gore and Bush, I FINALLY know who I am voting for for president! If she won would that make Ken the "first whipped bitch?"

There is a redheadded Barbie? yall are gonna laugh ya'lls asses of at this, but every pledge class we have goes on a scavenger hunt (yeah they're illegal, yada yada - it's stupid stuff like meet up with us and serenade our girlfriends and stuff) anyway, since I transfered to this chapter one of the items on the hunt has always been a redheaded barbie! I kid you not! Legend has it that it was put there to test the pledges creativity, because we understood that there was no such thing. But I can GUARENTEE that I WILL NOT be the one to stand up this scavenger hunt time in front of the whole chapter and tell them that, "Excuse me, but there is in fact a red headded barbie, and her name is Traci. She was friends with Barbie and married a guy named Todd!" Could you all imagine how far I'd get my ass beat down?! I wouldn't even make it out the door. I'd be rolled in the parking lot.

I have a funny story about Barbie. I was the type of girl that played with GI Joes. Like everyone here has said, Barbie was a hussy so I didn't want anything to do with her. Anyway, I went to an Easter Egg hunt one year (I think I was 4 or 5 years old). The girls and boys were seperated into different egg patches, and off we went. The object was to find the Golden Egg. There were lots and lots of eggs, but if you found the Golden Egg, you got a "big prize." Well, guess what - I got the golden egg on the girls side. Well, there were two prizes - a Barbie and a GI Joe set. I got to pick my prize first, so naturally I picked the GI Joe. The grown ups were shocked and kept asking me "Are you sure that is what you want??" Of course I was sure, so I got the GI Joe and some poor boy got a Barbie. And I couldn't figure why my family was mad at me - I found the Golden Egg didn't I?

I think the REAL reason Barbie never married Ken is because secretly she was from the late 90's and new that she had to be an Independant Woman. She knew deep down that Ken would probably cheat on her and take her money and leave her broken hearted...therefore she played him and focused on her career ambitions (all 1,000 of them)!
For that reason (and that reason alone) Barbie is a TRUE role model (j/k).

Didn't they have like a Barbie that "grew" 2 inches? Or was that Skipper? You'd move one of her arms around and she'd grow???
I had Ballerina Barbie with a crown. And 'cuz my mom was so called "pro-Black" while I was growing up, all my Barbie's were dark brown with long black hair. Somehow, Mattel did make the Black hair nappy if you tried to wash it and change the hairstyle--so I just wound up making a "cornroll braided" Barbie... They tried to make a Hispanic Barbie and an Asian Barbie...
Hey! Does Mattel have issues!!!
As far as the "groove thang" with GI Joe when he was a big man, yeah, I can understand why Barbie would want him rather than Ken, she was only thing what was under his tank... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/rolleyes.gif And I think Ken started dating that other doll out there for gays--I forgot his name... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/cool.gif

I am almost absolutely sure that Barbie is much older than the Cabbage Patch Kids . . . and why they were popular is beyond me . . .
It occurred to me as I was reading . . . and then I saw someone else mention it . . .
The REAL reason they never married . .
Drum roll Please . . . Ken is Gay!
Let's look at the evidence:
Keen Fashion sense, good dresser with stylish toys.
Hair always perfect.
Wears predominantly light airy clothing like pastels.
ALWAYS wears the appropriate outfit to the event, activity, sport (like you can get us straight guys to do that, puuuuulllleeeze! You're lucky if we don't wear white socks to your formal).
And finallly . . . Always hangs around at her beck and call without getting any!
Its funny, some female Mattel designer was looking to make the perfect male companion to go with the perfect girl . . . and she unconsciously makes him gay. It makes you want to weep.
No wonder women aren't happy with men, they want straight Kens http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif.
I think Ken was either Barbie's gay friend from high school or her hair dresser turned best friend/therapist.
But it is suspiscious that Barbie really doesn't date at all . . . I mean sheez, you think she would learn to balance her careers and social life a bit to allow emotional attachment. Bad role model http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif.

See now my Barbie had a little somethin somethin on the side with my Sonny Bono doll. Yup. Child of the 70's that I am. Cher and Ken were doin' it and Barbie and Sonny were doin it--in different wings of the dream house, of course.
I had a serious Barbie problem. Dream House. Town House. Camper. Three foot long Motorhome. Pool. Cars. My Barbie was one seriously spoiled chick. Must've been all Sonny's royalty checks. He just loved to serenade Ballerina Barbie (who would dance while he sang of course) "Babe, I got you Babe..."

Barbie has 4 sisters Skipper, Stacy, Kelly, & Krissy. Ken has 4 brothers all the same sizes.
Barbie has been in several bands. Barbie and the Rockers, some fifties band, and a few others.
Barbie is blone, brunette, and African-American.
Ken has too had jobs! He was also an astronaut, teacher, doctor, military, etc.
Midge is the redhead, and she got married to Alan.
Skipper has actually gotten older. She started out looking like Stacy does now, she's grown about an inch and developed boobs too!

I had a red headed Barbie!

Plus there was Derick. I was so mad when my parents wouldn't buy him. He had real hair! Not the plastic crap like Ken, who was ALSO in the band.

Um, anyway, I had some big@$$ house and I can't remember what it was called, but it was like two feet tall. I gave it to my friend when I got sick of it at like age ten. I also remember crying like forever cuz my babysitter said she'd cut Skipper's hair pretty, but instead she shaved it all off & made Skipper look like a Granny. :( I was so MAD!
There's also this HILARIOUS book I used to have a few years ago, I think it's called BARBIE UNBOUND. It has all these things like, what if Barbie was....etc.
A few examples I think were in it:
Welfare Mom Barbie
Biker Barbie
Animal Rights Activist Barbie

I too had the ghetto townhouse with the elevator that was always breaking! I also had Barbie's beach house and a Barbie swimming pool.
Even more ghetto than the ghetto townhouse - I had a Barbie RV and Barbie camping set - well, I decided my Barbies needed sleeping bags, so they all slept in purple Crown Royal velvet pouches.

seriously though, y'all made it out to seem like this was the 2nd coming of the Junk Stank thread, or even the first coming of the Too Much Info thread and, well, frankly, it just disappointed.

How can this thread be over-rated? It was started in 2000...
You're just jealous because your sister wouldn't let you play with her Ken doll ;):p

I know this is an old post but I, too, had this Barbie!
There are too many posts in this thread to go back and read, but teh whole Barbie has a last name thing.... well yeah. The doll was named after the creator's daughter, Barbara Roberts.

Does anyone remember Pregnant Barbie? She came with a big stomach with a door in it, you opened up the door, took out a baby doll, and her stomach went back to normal. Freaked me out.
