Real life Ken and Barbie

First there was Barbie who for a while had the Guinness record for amount of plastic surgery. Now Ken steps up to the plate. From an article in the Australian News Interactive: bq. In Toytown, Barbie and Ken are made of plastic. Now they have astonishing real-life counterparts - made with plastic surgery. bq. Cindy Jackson and Miles Kendall have spent about $300,000 transforming themselves into copies of the best-selling dolls, undergoing 89 operations - ranging from jaw implants and chemical peels to liposuction. bq. Although many would consider them mad, the pair couldn't be happier with their whiter-than-white smiles, wrinkle-free brows and finely chiseled cheekbones. Whatever floats your boat... Plus, I would hate to be them in about 20 years when the effects of all that surgery start manifesting. Take a look here for some examples. Posted by DaveH at May 3, 2004 8:58 AM
