The Bad Barbies? I like The Grungy Girl Gang much better

I think we all remember my recent Hollywood pitch for a buddy comedy called “The Grungy Girl Gang” based on the antics of a silly all girl gang in Florida (catch up here, here and here).  Well it turns out there ANOTHER all girl gang, except this one is significantly less fun-loving.  In New York City, there is a group of girls who call themselves “The Bad Barbies”.  These girls are legitimately dangerous, as they are being brought up on serious crimes such as murder, racketeering, and armed robbery.

What I find truly offensive is their name.  Bad Barbies?  I think “Badass” is a little better.  Why Barbie?  For generations, Barbie has been the Arian race poster child, a tall, leggy blue-eyed, blonde bimbo with huge boobs.   Her physical proportions are not compatible with proper balance.  Hardly the body type for ruthless killer.  Secondly, Barbie (Post Feminist movement) promotes female leaders.  Legitimate career-oriented women.  There is no “Gang Leader” Barbie, or “Prison Snitch” Barbie.  Now Skipper I can see doing that, but Barbie?  Don’t be silly.  Thirdly and most importantly BARBIE IS WHITE!  These gang members are Latin.

As stupid as they are, I have to give them credit:  They are generating a lot of buzz for my movie.
