As It Turns Out, Barbie Is A Lady Of The Night!
Updated : Jan 17, 2009
A writer called Jerry Oppenheimer is set to lift the lid on the controversial toy makers Mattel, and Barbie designer Jack Ryan, who turned out to a bit of a perve, with his book "Toy Monster: The Big Bad World of Mattel".
Mattel corp are due to celebrate Barbie's 50th birthday this year but with the revealation that her creator liked to hang out with busty prostitutes who reminded him of his creation, will certainly dampen festivities.
Jack Ryan, who was married many times, also conducted real 1970s-stlye orgies in his Bel-Air home with Barbie-lookalikes.
Internet research also brings news that Barbie was modelled on a German doll which was based on a fictional prostitute called "lilli" in the 1955 comic-strip of a German newspaper who serviced businessmen.
VeryHappyPig says Mattel obviously didn't research where the idea for Barbie came from before putting her on the market! Barbie rocks.... even as a prostitute!!
