Headline: Dame Helen Mirren Honoured With Her Very Own Barbie Doll

Caption: Dame Helen Mirren is being honoured with her very own Oscar-winning Barbie. The Academy Award-winning actress has received a one-of-a-kind Barbie doll created in her likeness. Dame Helen says: “It's a very special thing, and something I can add to my list of my favourite achievements, becoming a Dame of the British Empire, having an Oscar, having a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame - and having my own Barbie!”. The doll re-creates the iconic blue fashion look Helen wore on the 2023 Cannes red carpet, where she debuted blue hair while wearing a cornflower blue gown by Del Core. It also carries a blue fan – one of Helen’s trademark red carpet accessories – and a miniature Oscar statue, in recognition of the 2007 Best Actress win. Of her doll’s look, Helen says “ I love that the Barbie doll is wearing one of my favourite ever red carpet looks and the cherry on top of the cake is my doll having a miniature Oscar. It is an absolutely perfect reproduction.” She is one of a number of stars from around the world Barbie is honouring in its 65th year, with others including Kylie Minogue, Viola Davis, and Shania Twain.
