The Barbie girls and boys have been eating well this week.
After more than a year of hype, the Greta Gerwig film starring Margot Robbie as the titular doll and Ryan Gosling as her handsome sidekick, Ken, has finally been released to theater audiences to resounding success.
And while Robbie, Gosling and the film’s star-studded supporting cast have been working overtime promoting the movie, one of the film’s recent premieres stood out above the rest for its fearless fashion game.
Earlier this week, the pink carpet was rolled out at the Barbie premiere in Madrid and gurl did the children bring it. Fuego!
From musclebound kweens in corsets to anatomically-correct Kens in various stages of undress, the Spanish glitterati turned the Barbie world upside down.
See why life in plastic really is fantastic by clicking through for all the sexy studs and luscious ladies dripping in Barbie glam at the film’s Madrid premiere…

I feel sorry for everyone in these photos. They all look ridiculous. Sorry.
Steve9999
Don’t apologize. You are absolutely correct. They look pathetically ridiculous as some look like Tarzan, but have dressed like Jane. Sorry, not sorry.

Some people aren’t afraid to express themselves. Just think how drab this world would be if we were all you.
ScottOnEarth
Interesting – they’re all having a great time expressing their individual creativity while you’re writing miserable comments online. I wonder who’s having the better day.
monty clift
These days, “expressing oneself with creativity” just seems to mean “desperately thirsting for attention by wearing poorly designed, next-to-nothing clothes.”
dbmcvey
I’m sure they don’t think of you and your desperately sad and non-joyful life at all.

Keep your misery to yourself.

For the most part, these photographs are repulsive.

These photos are from Madrid. I doubt these people are members of SAG or WGA.

Other than Mike Fajardo (whoever heard of him before?) they were all tacky & tasteless.

Conservatives aren’t playing with “Barbie,” with many on the right slamming the colorful blockbuster as a “woke … flaming garbage heap.”
The likes of conservative commentator Ben Shapiro, Sen. Ted Cruz, and the wife of U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz are among those who have taken to the streets — also known as social media and Fox News — to denounce Greta Gerwig’s film, starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling.
Dubbed a “flaming garbage heap of a film,” Shapiro tweeted that the flick is “one of the most woke movies I have ever seen.”
Speaking on Fox News, 52-year-old Cruz admitted to not having seen the movie, but still dismissed it as essentially Chinese propaganda. The Texas senator pointed to the film’s inclusion of the “nine-dash line” — in favor of China’s territorial claims of the South China Sea — as evidence of “Barbie” attempting “to kiss up to the Chinese communist party … to make money selling the movie in China.”
The “offending” map move rendered the film banned in Vietnam.

Meanwhile, Ginger Gaetz, the wife of Matt Gaetz, took to Twitter to bemoan, in part, the “disappointingly low T from Ken,” referring to his level of testosterone.
Jack Posobiec, senior editor at HumanEvents.com, said the “horror show” film was not only “man-hating” but a “woke propaganda fest.”
Fox News helped spur the call to #BoycottBarbie after promoting a review by Christian site MovieGuide, which says the film is “pushing lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender character stories,” per Rolling Stone.
However, that boycott hasn’t seemed to gain much traction. At the time of publication, “Barbie” holds a 90% approval rating on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. It’s also been crowned the winner of box office previews for this summer and year to date.

Minority voice here.
I think that costumes are funny, in a fun way. I doubt that any of them take themselves seriously.
I have not seen the movie yet but it sounds like a good time.
I will see it in the next few weeks.
abfab
Maybe minority here, but not out in the world. Let your hair down, kids.
It’s on the list after Oppenhiemer……BOOM! Can’t wait…..Aug 1.

I´m impressed that the Mattel marketers have been able to dominate the movie premiere space in Spain the way they have done in the U:S.
The way they are apparently successfully reviving the Barbie brand for the 21st century in this way is pretty impressive marketing.
The naysayers and haters will always be with us, so ho hum. I´m not a fan, but Barbie, with all her blatent materialism, seems to appeal to large segments of the population, regardless of age or gender. Enjoy!
abfab
YES!
MSM
I have no intention of seeing the film. I also have no idea who these people are but they look like they are ready for a good time. Yes, some of the costumes, which is what they are, are not meant to be serious. It is all in fun. I hope they enjoyed the movie and the party after the premiere .
abfab
Yes!
Joshooeerr
Barbie reinvented as a feminist icon is simply capitalism re-claiming a soiled product. It may be brilliant marketing, but you still have to question the intelligence of anyone falling for it.
dbmcvey
Or, question the lack of imagination of someone who posts what you just did.
Have you seen the movie or is your opinion based on ignorance?
Bosch
Her body may not be so feminist, but she had careers way before it was considered mundane.

THIS PHOTO MAKES ME RETHINK, “IS THERE SUCH A THING AS TOO GAY?” THE ANSWER NOW IS ABSOLUTELY YES!!!
Hideous queens. Girl…don’t. The movie is stupid to begin with.
dbmcvey
Your post says everything about your sad, desperately unfun life.
abfab
Beyond sad…….
dbmcvey
Wow. Lots of sad people who hate joy posting on this.

I saw the film yesterday afternoon and actually really enjoyed it. Very much a film intended for adults (despite its rating) – simply because of the jokes and references that children wouldn’t understand.
With regards to these looks; I see nothing wrong with them. People dressing in pink to match the film. It’s all good.
The only one that creeps me out is María Forqué and guest because clearly the guest’s identity is to remain anonymous and they are therefore wearing a mask over their real face.
abfab
The GOPTROLLS are generating more movie goers. I can’t wait to see it.
Bosch
I wonder why some people don’t realise that choosing to be joyless is a form of self-sabotage.
Celebrate the differences. We’re all going to die, some sooner than later. Do your best to enjoy reality instead of getting frustrated by arbitrary things. I would never dress like these guys, but I am grateful to live in a time and place where they are free to do so.
mikhailmaui
Bosch, most people who comment on Queerty are self-hating miserable judgmental negative nellies. It’s been this way for years. I can only imagine their sad little lives.
abfab
What fun! I saw a few groups of little kids with adults strutting down the sidewalk on thier way to after parties(?) PRETTY IN PINK!!!!
JOY!!!

Charlie Kirk lurks here.
Charlie Kirk, a conservative radio talk show host, criticized the casting of Hari Nef as one of the Barbies in the film because she is a trans actor.
Kirk said “Barbie” was “trans propaganda that is in this hyper-feminine, ultra pink propaganda thing, but it’s really been taken over by the trans mafia.” He also said that the “Barbie” trailer was “the most disgusting thing” he’d ever seen.

These men assert their masculinity by obsessing over a movie about dolls.

When it comes to wearing pink to celebrate the Barbie premiere, I think Ryan Gosling pretty much nailed the look.
