Can You See Barbie as Lady Gaga?
One collector can. Here is a link to an article about the Pink Princess styled a la Lady Gaga.
Me, I think Barbie can do almost anything, so why not?
I think he did an amazing job recreating the fashions and accessories. However, there is something about the Barbie he chose that doesn't work for me. That particular doll looks very sweet and innocent. I think he should have chosen one that didn't have that big smile. I do think the right Barbie could definitely rock that look!
Yes, the fashions are incredible exact. One of the more reserved Barbies might have produced a more sophisticated vibe, but possibly, that contrast is what the artist had in mind? Shrug. I thought the contrast was interesting though, hence the link ;-)

Maybe Barbie is mocking Lady Gaga. Hmmm.
I can see Barbie doing that, lol.
