Really Barbie?

I'm not a HUGE fan of plastic surgery and botox but I have come across a case where plastic needs more plastic: 

BARBIE.

That's right, Barbie is turning 50.  And man, oh man, does she need some revamp work.  

Check this out...Barbie is dare we say it, letting herself go and living it up Cougar style:


So yeah, she's already all plastic but the scene with the "dropping" effect is something that sure scarred my childhood memories of dressing and redressing Barbie. 

Some people are traditionalist and don't like the idea of new Barbies and world-Barbies, but these people need to see this and get over it.  No one as iconic as Barbie should let herself go.  Not only is it bad for us girls, but those poor Ken dolls in the making are not enjoying the side effects of Cougar Barbie.  

So maybe we should lay off and let Barbie and Joan Rivers keep injecting the themed  mselves... after all, we DO have to look at them.  That, however, is NOT an excuse for the crack head beach barbie I was so 'uninspired' by a week or so ago.  

Let's keep it clean Barbie... we don't want to have to wonder where you've been when we are up close and personal with you while changing your clothes for the 145th time.
