Valeria Lukyanova is a living Barbie doll. She has big glassy eyes, a tiny waist, straight platinum blonde hair and large breasts. She doesn’t have the exact measurements of the famous girl from Mattel, but in the real world, she comes as close as you can get.
Lukyanova claims to be the “the most famous Russian woman on the Russian-language Internet.” Her Youtube page, Amatue, has millions of views and her Facebook page has a few thousand likes.
The International Business Times reports that the 21-year-old model has had plastic surgery to achieve her real-life Barbie doll look. She also spends a lot of time in the makeup chair to achieve the flawless skin and glassy, wide-eyed look of a doll.
Lukyanova’s strange appearance has some people claim that she’s an elaborate photo-shop hoax. Her Facebook page, however, is full of photos of the model without her makeup so it seems that the model is indeed real.
But that doesn’t mean people are a fan of her looks.
One Twitter user wrote: “She looks not only ugly, but ridiculous.”
Another asked: “Isn’t unhealthy obsession on looking like a Barbie doll a part of her identity though?”
Another wrote: “A woman with completely perfect features is a boring woman.”
According to a Huffing Post article from 2011, if Barbie were an actual woman she’d have unrealistic proportions and would most likely be anorexic. Galia Slayen wrote:
“If Barbie were an actual women, she would be 5’9? tall, have a 39? bust, an 18? waist, 33? hips and a size 3 shoe. Barbie would have a BMI of 16.24 and fit the weight criteria for anorexia…. If Barbie was a real woman, she’d have to walk on all fours due to her proportions.”
What do you think of Valeria Lukyanova? Is she beautiful? Strange looking?
