Reality star Kim Kardashian West, 38, shared on Twitter that a Barbie Doll of her was in the works but got cancelled.
Luckily her husband, Kanye, stepped in and had a prototype made anyway.
The star of “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” retweeted a photo of herself from 2011, revealing the fun story behind the outfit.
Have the best story about this look! I had a Barbie deal & she was going 2 wear this exact look! Then the deal got cancelled, the Kim K Barbie would no longer B produced. Kanye knew how sad I was, called Mattel & made all my dreams come true by having my prototype made just 4 me! https://t.co/F1r2Ai8WWC

Kim was dressed in a little black dress emphasising her tiny waist with nude Louboutins and a pink Chanel clutch. She did not share a picture of the prototype, so her fans are left to imagine how the real-life Barbie looks in doll form.

The reason for the cancelled doll was not noted, but the Daily Mail suggested that it could have to do with a difficulty for Mattel to match Kim’s iconic hair.
Kim and Kanye are expecting their fourth child via surrogate this Spring. According to People Magazine, the couple hopes to create a dynasty with six children.
After having North in 2013, she said, “I always wanted about six. After having her, I would have a million.”
