New Human Barbie Angelica Kenova Parents Refuse To Let Her Date & Claims Never Had Cosmetic Surgery
- 6 years ago
Step aside Valeria Lukyanova, theres a new Human Barbie in town, and extraordinarily, shes been raised as a living doll since she was born.\r
\r
Angelica Kenova, a 26-year-old model from Moscow, Russia, still lives with her hyper-controlling parents, who have been honing her drastic look all her life - dictating her diet and exercise programme so she can maintain her miniature six-stone frame.\r
\r
Growing up, my parents raised me like a princess and never let me go out, date boys or have the usual adult experiences, Angelica says. As a result, I am not fit for real life - Im like a living doll.\r
\r
Angelica has been dressed up as a Barbie doll since birth and is only allowed to go on dates if her mother, Natalia, accompanies her.Yet bizarrely, the diminutive blonde - who claims to be a child psychologist and a ballet dancer as well as a model - regularly poses for half-naked photos, which her parents approve of.\r
\r
Angelica maintains that her walking-talking doll looks were achieved without plastic surgery and has amassed thousands of fans on social media.\r
\r
She boasts the same unrealistic body proportions and wide-eyed features as a Barbie, with a tiny 20-inch waist and a 32E bra size.\r
\r
I have never had plastic surgery, she insists. Cosmetic work is only necessary when an individual has serious faults with their face or body.\r
\r
Angelica - who has one older brother, Roman - still lives with her parents and can only date men with their absolute approval - which has so far never happened.\r
\r
My mother and father dont want me to move out of the family home, she says.\r
\r
Im not even allowed to buy clothes without my mum there - she likes to choose attire that clings to my figure and emphasize my good features.My mother also demands that she accompanies on any dates. I have to book a table for three people so she can sit at the same table whilst my date and I have dinner.\r
\r
So Ive never had a proper boyfriend. All the boys I know are just friends unfortunately.\r
\r
Angelica says that her mother and father, Evegniy, are keen to see her succeed as a model and are proud of her raunchy photo shoots.\r
\r
Since I was a child, my parents styled me as a Barbie so Im glad that Im equated to one - Barbie is the idol of girls around the world.\r
\r
Growing up, Angelica was given the most extravagant upbringing and education that money could buy.\r
\r
My parents called me the princess. They always bought me the best toys, she remarks.\r
\r
They sent me to the most prestigious educational establishments around and took great care to protect me from any problems.\r
\r
You could say my parents gave me too much attention. I was not allowed to do anything without their say-so.One thing she was always permitted to do, of course, was dress like a doll.\r
\r
I did not choose this image of a doll myself, my parents did. When I turned six, my mum started buying me collectible Barbie dolls and enthusiastically dressing me up like one.\r
\r
My mother was also very beautiful in her youth, Angelica says. She looked like Brigitte Bardot. She loved Barbies slender beauty, golden curls, cute face and beautiful clothes, and urged me to be exly the same.\r
\r
Angelica recalls: I would pose in the mirror for hours and put on performances for my parents friends. Everyone nicknamed me the Russian Barbie.\r
\r
From then on, Angelica made it her mission to emulate the famous figurine, to the joy of her parents.\r
\r
When I became a teenager, my parents hired a personal trainer who created an individual training programme for me, she explains.
