Show Notes
Celebrity dolls have been a part of pop culture for nearly a century, and in this episode I’m counting down my Top 10 favorite celebrity dolls in my personal collection!
Before the countdown, we take a quick look back at the history of celebrity dolls, beginning with the iconic Shirley Temple dolls of the 1930s and how celebrity dolls evolved into the collectibles we know today.
From Lindsay Lohan, Brandy, Hilary Duff, and a few unexpected picks (yes… Fran Fine from The Nanny makes the list!), to pop culture icons like the Spice Girls and Britney Spears, I’m sharing the dolls that mean the most to me, why I love them, and what makes each one so special.
I also talk about how valuable many of these dolls have become over the years, whether their quality still holds up by today’s standards, and finish things off with an unboxing of Mattel’s brand-new Miley Cyrus doll!
Whether you’re a longtime doll collector, a pop culture fan, or just feeling nostalgic, I hope you enjoy this countdown!
