I loved playing with Barbies - that's why I didn't stop!
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was big time into Barbie.
When the other girls had given up their Barbies, I was still playing with mine in secret.
I was big time into Barbie. I also had Wonder Woman Underoos that I really liked. I actually wore them as an outfit to school. As I said, I was a strange child.
I never had a chance to play with dolls like other kids. I started working when I was six years old.
I was, like, a total cliched '80s child. I had Barbies, obviously, as well as My Little Ponies and Cabbage Patch Kids, but I used to destroy them. I used to draw all over their faces and cut off their hair.
And after every audition I booked, my parents would buy me a Barbie, so that was it for me: You got a Barbie, and you got to hang out with friends. And I thought it was just the best thing ever.
As a girl, my favorite toy was my dollhouse; if I could still play with it now, I would!
I played with dolls until I was 15. My mother encouraged it because my older sister got married when she was 15, so Mom thought that the longer I stayed with dolls, the better.
I didn't like Barbie dolls, so I used to have this overactive imagination, and I used to pretend to be all these different things. My weird childhood fetishes seem to have come to life now as an actor.
I did have a 1977 Barbie, but I was more into stuffed animals than dolls.
