I was the original voice of Mattel's Barbie for an '80s claymation workout video.
I was the original voice of Mattels Barbie for an 80s claymation workout video.
Mattel stepped up and changed the face of Barbie. Barbie looks a lot different than she did decades ago. Or even three weeks ago.
...although I had to admit a certain affection for the Mattel booth advertising Urban Survival Barbie, now with her own Machete and blood testing unit.
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.
It's pretty awesome. Mattel does such a great job with detail... I'm way better looking than Ken. Barbie's been hitting on my action figure the whole time. She actually asked the stocking people if she could hang next to me, but they said no - because it's PG.
HBO is the original subscription video-on-demand company. We were repurposing first-run movies, and then we added original programming.
I'm part of that original generation that came up playing video games, that pumped a lot of our allowance into video games. We financed the rise of video games. I started playing them in the Straw Hat Pizza Palace at the Carriage Square Mall in Oxnard, CA.
'Chronicle' could have been a video-game movie. The original 'RoboCop' and the remake could have come from video games.
I didn't really grow up playing video games. I had an original Nintendo after the original Nintendo was cool.
I have a tell-all book about where I came from, as well as a workout video.
Barbie is my fashion icon. People think I'm Paris Barbie - and it's a compliment.
I wasn't Barbie-obsessed. I think my mother might have been my Barbie.
I've designed exercise video games, running shoes, healthy beverages, and workout equipment.
As cliched as it sounds, if you have an original voice and an original idea, then no matter what anybody says, you have to find a way to tell that story.
Nudge: "I look like prep school Barbie. (looks at Max) Actually, you look like prep school Barbie. I'm just Barbie's friend.
I had always wanted to lend my voice to a character. I did a voice for this video game, called 'Fallout 3,' and that was really fun.
