Remember that unauthorized Anna Wintour biography that everybody read but never talked about aloud?
Well, its author, Jerry Oppenheimer, is at it again. This time’s victim? Barbie.
To coincide with the doll’s 50th anniversary, and subsequent takeover of fashion, Oppenheimer’s taken Barbie to task, revealing that a “‘70s swinger and wife swapper with all kinds of addictions” brought the iconic doll into the world.
The book is called Toy Monster, and it hits shelves this February, just in time for Fashion Week.
We suggest holding it in front of you to ward off Barbie promotion people at the tent entrance.
