When I was really young. My sister and I would create different characters with our Barbie dolls - I'd be the crazy diva Barbie and she'd be the homeless Barbie.

Jordana Brewster

Dolls fire our collective imagination, for better and - too often - for worse. From life-size dolls the same height as the little girls who carry them, to dolls whose long hair can 'grow' longer, to Barbie and her fashionable sisters, dolls do double duty as child's play and the focus of adult art and adult fear.

Ellen Datlow

Most little children's obsessions are robots and Barbie dolls. My obsession as a kid was the Versace house. I used to save up my pocket money to buy Versus shirts. I was that obsessed!

Riccardo Tisci

My first acting gig was a skit for Jay Leno on 'The Tonight Show.' It was this Barbie commercial where I got to pour mud all over Barbie dolls and watch the heads pop off. It was so exciting, a lot of fun.

Brie Larson

I wasn't Barbie-obsessed. I think my mother might have been my Barbie.

Michael Kors

My first modeling job was Gap, and my first time in front of the camera was for a Soda Pop Girls commercial - it's one of those Bratz dolls, Barbie dolls... one of those.

Hailee Steinfeld

People view child actors the same way that girls treat their Barbie dolls.

Mara Wilson

I really don't agree with people who look literally plastic like Barbie dolls. I just don't think that's attractive.

Megan McKenna

We Barbie dolls are not supposed to behave the way I do.

Sharon Stone

There's a reason that girls cut off all their Barbie doll's hair and dye it and do things like that. I destroyed my Barbie dolls, and I know other girls did as well. And that's kind of the way they see kids movies and child actors in kids movies, as something that you've moved on from. It's babyish.

Mara Wilson

I was always obsessed with being famous. I had Marilyn Monroe paper dolls as a child, and I was always obsessed with her. I've just been really driven in that direction, and none of my friends were. So, I don't know what put that bug in me at a young age.

Holly Madison

I grew up playing with dinosaurs instead of Barbie dolls.

Danielle Campbell

I did have a 1977 Barbie, but I was more into stuffed animals than dolls.

Dylan Lauren

I grew up with six brothers, and I'm from Chicago, so princesses and Barbie dolls were not around the house. It was more like sports and comic books, so getting to work for Marvel is like my version of being able to be a princess.
