PHOTOS: Real Life Barbie And Ken Finally Meet But Was NOT Love At First Sight

At least their feelings aren't fake.

We’ve met a lot of interesting people this year who took the saying: “you can become anything you want” too literally. 

Valeria Lukyanova and Justin Jedlica are two of those people. Both of them had surgeries in the past to make themselves look more like their heroes: Barbie and Ken.

Jedlica spent $160,000 on 125 different surgeries because “dolls are typically thought of as the ideal of what a man or woman should be, look like, live like”.

Valeria Lukyanova is undergoing a diet of light and air called Breatharianism. “It’s wonderful to look like a doll. Even when people call me Barbie, I never tried to look like a doll, I just like everything to be pretty, feminine, elegant; the difference is that dolls are based on the images of elegant girls,” she said.

We don’t understand what took so long for this to happen but these like minded individuals have finally met for an episode of TV show Inside Edition. Sadly, it did not go down the way we would have imagined.

Last year Jedlica had said that the Breatharianist looked like a “drag queen.” She bluntly said after their rendezvous: “He overdid his lips”. What a burn.

According to The Sun the pair ‘hated the sight of each other.’ They’re probably just too similar.
