Long before Weird Barbie emerged as the marker-stained hero of last summer's Barbie movie, she was far from the first fashion doll from Mattel to elicit a resounding "huh?" from little girls around the globe. Since Barbie's toy store debut in 1959, her overlords decided to get really, really weird with it, expanding sanctified Barbie pastimes to include founding father, operating a pooper scooper and getting attacked by birds a la
Tippi Hedren.
From pregnant Midge to Rosie O'Donnell and, of course, the infamous Earring Magic Ken, here are 20 terrible, terrible Barbies that make weird Barbie look fresh out of the box.
