Nicki Minaj Gets Her Own Barbie Doll

 

Some things can be talked into existence as Nicki Minaj will be getting her own Barbie courtest of Mattell.

Mattel is making a one-of-a-kind Barbie doll after the Queen of YMCMB , which will be available for auction at CharityBuzz.com.

The doll will be unveiled  at Divine Design’s five-day event at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles, according to Billboard.

Charitybuzz will take  bids until  Dec. 19 starting at   $1,000 and the proceeds will benefit Project Angel Food, which provides food for men, woman and children affected by HIV and AIDS.

Stefani Yocky, a Barbie spokeswoman told Billboard,

“Barbie is obviously a pop culture icon. She’s been in the spotlight for over 50 years, and strikes that chord with girls of all ages in terms of being representative of the times. And Nicki is a big part of pop culture and also huge within the fashion industry, as well as a big Barbie fan.  

It’s really exciting for us that she’s been so generous to allow us to create this one-of-a-kind doll to support such an important cause.”

If this turns out to be successful, we can bet a lucrative partnership will have these dolls flying off the shelves at Toys R Us and Wal-mart.
