EL SEGUNDO, CA — At a press conference earlier today, Bryan G. Stockton, CEO of Mattel Inc., proudly announced Make-Me-Pretty Barbie, the newest addition to the company’s popular Barbie line of toys that thrusts the iconic doll into the exciting, modern world of plastic surgery.
“We wanted a Barbie for the 21st Century,” announced a beaming Stockton. “We’ve often been criticized for manufacturing an unrealistic, unattainable image of the female body, so we’ve decided that now is the time to introduce a Barbie that shows young girls how the modern woman actually becomes so pretty.”
“Make-Me-Pretty Barbie does that and more.”
