Barbie’s Abandoned Family Members

Barbie may preach that “We girls can do anything,” but holding down 87 careers comes at a price. From her little sister Tutti to Tanner, her pooping dog, the doll’s made a habit of cruelly cutting off those closest to her. Watch your back, Ken.

I know, right? Now tell your friends!
Barbie's Abandoned Family Members
Margaret Hartmann

1. Tutti & Todd, Barbie’s Twin Siblings

These elementary schoolers were introduced in 1966 as Barbie and Skipper’s little brother and sister. Much like Richie’s big brother on Happy Days, in 1971 they announced they were headed off to school and were never seen or heard from again.

2. Francie, Barbie’s Cousin

In 1966 Barbie started hanging out with her cousin Francie, who had a “mod” ’60s wardrobe, a thinner figure, and beautiful rooted eyelashes. She mysteriously disappeared in 1976, and while there’s no evidence that Barbie murdered her in a fit of jealous rage, there’s also no evidence that she didn’t.

3. Jazzie, Barbie’s “Cool Teen Cousin”

Jazzie was the epitome cool in the late ’80s/early ’90s. The high school student had friends with names that matched hers (Chelsie and Stacie), a boyfriend known simply as “Dude,” and her very own version of the Peach Pit: A rad hangout spot called “Burger King.”

4. Kelly I/Stacie/Kelly II, Barbie’s Little Sister

In the ’90s Barbie’s parents had several children in an attempt to fill the Tutti-shaped hole in their lives. Kelly first appeared as a flower girl in Midge’s wedding, then demanded that everyone start calling her “Stacie” in a desperate plea for attention. Several years later Kelly was reincarnated as a toddler, but Barbie was too busy with her work as a presidential candidate/aerobics instructor to notice.

5. Krissy, Barbie’s Baby Sister

Disappeared in 2001. Barbie’s only statement on the matter: “It will shock you how much it never happened.”

6. Barbie’s Pets

Most greusome playset ever: Barbie’s pet cemetery, which contains 21 dogs, 15 horses, six cats, a parrot, a chimpanzee, a panda, a lion cub, a giraffe, and a zebra. As it turns out, Barbie didn’t find her dog Tanner’s realistic pooping action all that amusing.

      You actually can’t find Kelly dolls anymore, she’s been replaced with Chelsea.

      Why is “food” ‘n fun on the Burger King toy in quotes? Are they trying to make sure that kids don’t try to eat the tiny burger and fries? You know, kids, it’s “food.” ;)

    • Ken knows about how Barbie can be a total *****. You didn’t hear it from me, but a few years ago she totally ditched Ken for some Aussie named Blaine because he could “keep up with her better”. Something about skydiving, I think.  Anyway she messed around for awhile, but ended up crawling back to Ken and then it was all drunken late night phone calls and 2am text messages… You’d be surprised, for a girl with so many careers she parties and consumes narcotics at a rate you’d never believe.  Anyway, after about a month of this Ken is all “Oh it’s going to be different this time, she sounds like she’s so sorry” and of course like any good doormat let her back into his life. We all tried to talk him out of it of course, she’s made it obvious the sort of relationships that she keeps (which is none), but he just went right ahead and did it. Love is blind I guess, but you mark my words, she’s nothing but a selfish tramp, she’ll break his heart again and everyone including Ken knows it.
