Did you ever wish to look like Barbie?

"No. I wanted to look like the girls on Pantene ads."

Do you think Barbie is a good role model for children?

"Barbie's not a role model at all because she doesn't actually do anything. Barbie is a tool for a child's imagination, and in that definition, she should come in all sizes, colors, shapes, and occupations. Barbie allows a child to build their own role model. Unfortunately, the role model a kid can imagine is limited by the media, and what accessories the doll comes with."
