Is looking like a Barbie doll what girls are aspiring to now-a-days or has this been the pattern for some time now?
I have to admit that when I was younger, I absolutely loved Barbie! I simply adored her as nearly every little girl and her pals do. I owned the whole Barbie collection ranging from her house, her car, hair salon, wardrobe and even to her lover Ken. The dream couple as humorously presented on Disney Pixars new Toy Story 3.

| Barbie & Ken- Toy Story 3 |
Barbie is a doll. A play thing. In my opinion she is a fantasy doll in another words, a fake doll who is supposedly the stereotypical image of the ‘perfect woman’.., but the idea of ‘the perfect woman’ ranges from person to person and in a nutshell, bleached blonde hair, with fake boobs and collagen pumped face isn’t what all men are attracted to nor is the image every girl wishes they had. Sure some men are more attracted to ghetto Barbie, Latino Barbie or even Ken!!!
So….. why do young girls and girls in general want to look like this fantasy doll manufactured by image psychologists so badly?? The answer dates back as far as Hitler in World War Two with this Arian race of Blonde hair, blue eyed people only being allowed to live.. but children in this era, have society, the media and various American movies to blame as they have also added to ‘perfect woman’ as being a Barbie doll image.
One TV show that has definitely played on this stereotypical Barbie look as ideal, is the hit TV serious ‘The Hills’!
Lets take a look at the number one surgery designed Barbie doll- the no other than the one and only Heidi Montage .
In this piece, you will learn how Heidi changed her image due to slaggings she received from a young age and how the pressure of living in a surgery orientated city, L.A also lead her to this ‘surgery mad’ addiction and want for ‘PERFECTION’!

| Heidi in 2001 |
By the time she was was 21, Heidi was no stranger to surgery & had several cosmetic surgery procedures, she had already had a nose job, collagen lip injections, and implants that turned her A-cups into 32-Cs.
But this time around proved more dramatic…..!
Back in November, Heidi was about to undergo 10 procedures in just one day in her quest for ‘perfection’
WHAT SHE HAD DONE:
- Boob job num 2
- Nose job num 2
- Ears pinned back
- Mini brow lift
- Botox in forehead and frown area
- Fat injections in cheeks, nasolabial folds and lips
- Chin reduction
- Neck liposuction
- Liposuction on waist, hips, outer and inner thighs
- Bum job- yes a bum job!
In a transformation that featured on the front page of America’s People magazine, she had work done on almost every part of her body, ranging from neck liposuction to a buttock augmentation.

Afterwards, she told the media: ‘I love my body. I still feel a little fragile, but I’ve never felt more beautiful and sexier. I didn’t know I could have this much confidence’.
‘I see an upgraded version of me. It’s a new face and a new energy. It’s a new person and I feel like almost all of the things I didn’t want to be and who I turned into kind of got chiseled away. So I’m very excited for the world to see the new me and a real me.’
She admitted that in recovery ‘the pain was everywhere’, adding: ‘My head felt like it had a jackhammer on it. I couldn’t talk because of my jaw and chin… I was like, “I wanna die right now. I’m in so much pain. I don’t know what to do”.

Heidi later also told the media that her decision to undergo such extensive surgery was stemmed from a slagging she received from a young age quoting
”I was made fun of when I was younger, and so I had insecurities, especially after I moved to L.A. People said I had a “Jay Leno chin”, they’d circle it on blogs and say nasty things. It bothered me. And when I watched myself on The Hills, my ears would be sticking out like Dumbo! I just wanted to feel more confident and look in the mirror and be like, “Whoa! That’s me!” I was an ugly duckling before”

| What can happen if her addiction continues |
I’m not saying that cosmetic surgery is a no- no at all here! I know a good few girls who have had cosmetic surgery done- whether it be a boob job, nose job even lipo- if cosmetic surgery can enhance someones appearance and give them that extra confidence boost they need, well then so be it- but to undergo 10 major surgeries in one day is absolutely nuts and in my opinion, I think she looks awful! God love her!
So, for young girls out there reading this, Barbie IS NOT the image you want!! This girl has achieved it and everyone will tell you- she looks scary and she was a lot better looking before she put herself through this horrible process!
But….What do you think? I wanna know….. give me your feedback and tell me your opinion on the whole Barbie image and on Heidi’s new Barbie look?
And remember, like Ive said before- beauty lies in the eye of the beholder! Looking like a Barbie isn’t what it’s all about!
Enjoy,
Much love,
