Didn’t your My Buddy doll remind you a little too much of Chuckie? Who in their right mind wants a doll that looks like a real person? Dolls are for imaginative play.

Not true for many….The Toy Fair in New York city yesterday was the display for a number of dolls who look like stars. From a Gwen Stefani doll (like someone will buy that for their kids??) to an Ashley Tisdale doll (pre-nose job), you name it, it was there.

There was even a doll of Bindi Irwin. As creepy as that is, the creepiest by far was the Heath Ledger doll. His family says they approved the project, which will feature Heath as the Joker.

Coming to a toy store near you…..

She is officially the hottest, well, make that most popular girl around. Ugly Betty has finally managed to get her own doll.

Made by Madame Alexander, it is a perfect representation of the America Ferrera character. But they aren’t available just yet. The doll will be offered in both 8 and 18 inch versions and will be available starting in May.

Not only did she make us look at her dressed like a doll…now she wants us to actually BUY her dolls?!

Kids will be lining up to buy a Marie Osmond Dancing-inspired doll from QVC. Dolls debut on November 29 at 6 p.m. There are four in the collection, each sporting an outfit that Marie wore on the show.

There’s the Boogie Woogie doll, the Paso Doble doll, the Quickstep doll, and the Freestyle doll from the season finale. There were two other dolls, the Samba doll and the Fox Trot dall, but both sold out previously.

Aww, Mom, can I have one for Christmas? Pleeeeaaassse? Yeah, right. I have no desire to encourage Marie’s shameless self promotion.

Gwen Stefani is a doll. Literally. Much like many female pop stars of this generation, Gwen released her own doll line. It apparently has done so well that she’s set to come out with a whole new collection. The looks of which were inspired by the look of her latest ‘Sweet Escape’ album.

Now this is the right type of marketing. Go out and offer fans things with your name instead of having brands put their name on you. And just think, we can all get our mini Gwen’s to play party animal and get them drunk and stoned with Wino’s Double Trouble Combo!

The Olsen Twins are going for the classic look these days with all the black and white they have been wearing. Although they find an odd need to dress in opposite every time. They’re only managing to look like a massive Oreo cookie or a Yin and Yang symbol more than anything. Ebony and Ivory ain’t moving over.

But guess what? They have recently announced that they will be making a new line of clothing that will include leather jackets, T-shirts, pencil skirts, cashmere sweaters, fur jackets, silk dresses and mini dresses, ranging from about $80 to $600 when they hit upscale New York stores like Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman this fall.

If you’re willing to spend hundreds of dollars on clothes, would you go get one “designed” by an Olsen? It’s not like they have the sense of style to inspire anything.
