Ayumi Hamasaki and Britney Spears at the Barbie Award 2001 & 2002 in Japan. The award, created by Mattel and Bandai in 2001, was given to a woman who “realizes her dream” like Barbie. Years later, notable winners of the Barbie (and Ken) Award were then Girls Generation member Jessica Jung and TVXQ! member Yunho in 2012 and J-Pop singer Kyary Pamyu Pamyu in 2014.
