"Last year, on Barbie's behalf, Mattel took Bratz to court again, this time arguing that dressing like a tramp had been her idea all along. Barbie won and in December a United States court ruled that Bratz had to be pulled from the shelves.
This year Barbie has shown the recession who's boss, securing no fewer than six jobs, including as a Sea World trainer and a vet.
Barbie doesn't talk much about 2004 these days. Apparently, she denies the calamitous events occurred at all. But then, she's always been good at make-believe.
The Forever Barbie exhibition is at Federation Square June 26 to July 12."
