Barbie Loves Robert Pattinson too!

What's better than Barbie? PLENTY of things, trust me. There are literally MILLIONS of things better than Barbie.
Still, it is exciting news for Rob Pattinson/doll-enthusiasts that the iconic Barbie and her long-suffering-potential-cheater-soulmate Ken have jumped on board the bandwagon that is Twilight and recreated themselves as human Bella Swan and vampire Edward Cullen.
Side note: whatever happened to that Aussie boogie-board dude Blaine that Barbs was dating after her high-profile split with Ken? Not mentioning that again? Nope, didn't think so.
Anyway, the press release about the Twilight dolls will either have you in fits of excited giggles or fits of belly laughs at the ridiculousness. It reads thus:
And so the lion fell in love with the lamb. Twilight has quickly become a worldwide phenomenon developing a strong core base of dedicated fans who are drawn to the story of a Romeo & Juliet style romance between mortal (Bella) and vampire (Edward). Who better to capture the young star-crossed love of these two characters than Barbie & Ken? Edward is luminescent with a shimmering complexion and trademark gold eyes. Bella is dressed in her signature outfit from the movie.
The dolls will be on sale later in the year so save up or avoid... depending on how you feel about pale, shimmery dolls with freakish golden eyes.
