Barbie has been on a roll with its new releases — from the Miley Cyrus doll to the Angel Reese Barbie and even the signature holiday series, the brand has had no shortage of ideas when it comes to paying tribute to some of the world’s biggest icons. Now, Mattel is honoring another superstar: Whitney Houston.
Just released today, the Whitney Houston Barbie doll is available for purchase on Walmart and Amazon, and features Houston in the same dress she wore in the “I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)” music video, per the official product description. That means she’s decked out in a sleek purple dress, statement curly locks, accessories, and makeup that makes her look like she just walked off set.
