Between her constant career changes and divorce from Ken back in 2004, it's safe to say that it has been one crazy decade for Barbie. However, it seems she has finally taken matters into her own hands as she embarks on the path of Barbie the Intern.
Barbie the Intern, or 'Intern Barbie,' has chosen to tackle the world of fashion as an ambitious young intern willing to climb the corporate ladder. The release of Barbie the Intern will hopefully establish a relativity with young girls, as the goals Barbie is pursuing are (for once) realistic.
