40+ Barbie Dolls That Actually Look Exactly Like These Celebrities

Little girls worldwide have played with Barbies for decades and probably secretly hoped that they, too, would have a Barbie made in their own likeness. Well, we know we did! These celebrities got to have the dream of every little girl come true for them when they got made into a Barbie doll. But how close did the plastic toy get to the real deal?

Margot Robbie

While the world eagerly awaits the release of the new Barbie movie, fans can already get their hands on a new range of Barbie dolls fashioned after Margot Robbie, who plays the lead in the much-anticipated movie of the year.

With three fun outfit choices, the latest Mattel creation resembles Robbie, making it clear why she was chosen for this coveted role. From the blonde hair and blue eyes to the fun pink outfits, we're sure this will be on Christmas wish lists worldwide for years to come.

Cher

International singing sensation Cher inspired a new line of Bob Mackie Barbie dolls in 2007 when the designer teamed up with toymakers to recreate that iconic '80s black leather and fishnets look that had the entertainment world buzzing.

Popular for her singing and acting talents, we think you'll agree that the designer did Cher justice as he created this spectacular doll in her image. From the big, crazy hair to the wild costume choice, this is one doll we'd love to own!

Elton John

It's not often that Barbie honors men, but Mattel came up with a brilliant way to pay tribute to legendary musician Elton John. They released their Elton John-inspired doll in 2020 to celebrate the 45th anniversary of his sold-out shows at the L.A. Dodgers stadium.

The doll sports a pair of iconic sunglasses that scream Elton John, paired with a sequined jacket with John's initials. While she might look nothing like the British singer, it's great to see how they decided to honor Elton John the best way they knew how.

Dr. Maya Angelou

There is no doubt that Dr. Maya Angelou was one of the most impressive women of our time, which is exactly why Mattel decided to honor her incredible life and work when they released the Maya Angelou Barbie doll in 2021 as a part of the "Inspiring Women" series of dolls.

Having passed in 2014, Angelou was known for her beautiful poetry and books, the most famous of which forms an accessory for the Mattel creation. Not only does the Dr. Maya Angelou doll bear a striking resemblance to its namesake, but it can also be seen holding a copy of her most famous biography, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.
