The Split of Barbie and Ken

By ClipFreeFunnyVideo.com

Info! What a perfect world it would be if we could all at least be celebrities in our own lives. Cooking, cleaning and working hard everyday may not be glamorous but it certainly should be commended.

So, Barbie and Ken have split up. The media made such an ordeal out of it after Mattel announced that the famous couple has decided to go their own ways. Surprisingly, people were upset about this announcement. Mattel reported getting lots of emails from upset fans over this decision.

To those people, I say, Barbie and Ken are dolls. They are not real. You can still play with them and make-believe that they are a happily married couple. You don’t really have to tell your children that Barbie and Ken are divorcing or even worry about what to tell your kids. They are simply dolls.

I live next door to a real-life Barbie and Ken. Though she prefers to be called “Barbs”, she and her husband certainly fit the replica of the famous couple. I have some suspicions that her perfect figure has had some cosmetic assistance but she will deny it a thousand times over.

Info! Celebrity obsession is certainly nothing new. If anything you would have figured we as a society would have become more accustomed to and quite bored with celebrities by now.

Of course, Barbie’s figure is completely cosmetic and she’s probably quite proud to admit that. My neighbors, Barbie and Ken, are just tickled pink whenever someone makes a comment about how they fit the roles of being the perfect couple.

She giggles hysterically and shrugs it off but you can see her holding back her glowing smile. She loves the attention. Her husband is much more down-to-earth.

I remember in junior high school, my boyfriend and I dressed up like Barbie and Ken for a Halloween party one year. Dressed up elegantly as Barbie that night, I had my first kiss. It was just as awkward as a first kiss should be and I thought that I felt just as “in love” as Barbie and Ken should feel.

Years later, I smile at the memory but I have no idea when my Ken from that memorable night is these days. I’m not sure I really care. But, if anyone should be upset about Barbie and Ken splitting up, it should be me. Afterall, that first kiss meant the world to me and gave Barbie and I a special bond.

However, I am not upset because I realize that Barbie and Ken are dolls. They are nothing more than two plastic dolls that children (and adults) play make-believe with. You can choose to believe that they have not split up and just like real life celebrities can verify, Hollywood gossip is sometimes merely gossip. Life goes on. Just ask Barbie and Ken.
