Lucy is a doll...
My far-flung friends Henry and Eddie aren't gonna believe this! Lucy and Ethel are becoming Barbie dolls! Now, we don't play with dolls but we do LOOOOOVE Lucy and Ethel and we love the episode "Lucy and Ethel Buy the Same Dress." You remember it, right? It's the one where they sing "Friendship" and started tearing each other's dresses off right there at the Wednesday Afternoon Fine Arts League talent show? The dolls were just released to retail stores including Walmart today!
I would not have known about this had I not seen it on the EverythingLucy.com blog which is one of several sites I frequent often and that today I added to my Blogroll. Others include JustJared.com, TMZ.com, Kennethinthe212, Towleroad, Queersighted, MichaelAusiello, Popnography among others.
Enjoy! And check out these sites, I love 'em all.
Greg Hernandez has covered the entertainment industry for the Daily
News since 2001. He's considered a bit odd by some for his obsession
with box office numbers, has been known to camp out near the kitchen
at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never
seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.

Dude, Mattel has been producing Lucy/Barbie dolls for several years. Although I think the Ethel doll is a first.
