Human Barbie Talks About Race and Beauty

Human Barbie
Do you still remember Valeria Lukyanova? She’s one of those "real-life" Barbie dolls who has made it her life’s mission to look exactly like the iconic toy. The others are models Anastasia Shpagina and Anzhelika Kenova.

In her recent interview with the magazine, GQ, the 28-year-old model shared some very interesting, if not very popular stand, view on beauty and multi-racial mixes. Not a few raised their eyebrows, but some are not that surprise at all.

The Ukrainian beauty known for her body's extreme proportion, specifically her non-existent waistline, had her share of supporters and critics who are severely divided on the definition of beauty. However, this latest interview will clearly define that line further and maybe involve several online discussions later.

"For example, a Russian marries an Armenian, they have a kid, a cute girl, but she has her dad's nose. She goes and files it down a little, and it’s all good," she tells the men’s magazine. "Ethnicities are mixing now, so there’s degeneration, and it didn’t used to be like that."

If you think that what she just said is mild and not worth further debate, then read her views further:

"Remember how many beautiful women there were in the 1950s and 1960s, without any surgery? And now, thanks to degeneration, we have this," the model continues. "I love the Nordic image myself. I have white skin; I am a Nordic type — perhaps a little Eastern Baltic, but closer to Nordic."

Clearly, there are two sides of the coin here. Before she talks only about her boob job, but now her political and personal beliefs are becoming a public issue as well. She admitted in the interview that she finds biracial people unattractive and that’s her personal stand. Do you agree with her?
