Meet the real life Barbie who has spent more than £25,000 transforming herself into a human doll.But what is most surprising, is that the toy doll enthusiast actually used to be a GOTH.Ophelia Vanity, 30, has splurged thousands of pounds on Botox, fillers and beauty treatments, in a bid to emulate the iconic doll.She is also eyeing breast and bottom implants and wants to have Rib Removal Surgery to give her more of an hourglass shape.“I’ve always been into Barbie . As a kid, I’d get a doll every Christmas or birthday. I had a dozen or so and would play with them all the time,” said Ophelia, of Los Angeles, California, USA.
“I loved her aesthetic, and as I got older, I decided I wanted to emulate her.“She’s such an iconic character.”A far cry from her current doll-like appearance, Ophelia spent her teens dressing as a goth – wearing black clothing and heavy make-up.But, as she grew older, she wanted a drastic change and felt more drawn to the Barbie look.In 2009, she had her first Botox injections in a bid to make her face expressionless, like a doll.She recalls being nervous, but says they did not hurt.Impressed with the results, she began having it more regularly, until it became a part of her beauty routine.Around four years ago, she also started having lip fillers, to achieve Barbie’s trademark pillowed pout.She now gets either Botox or lip fillers every six to nine months. She has also undergone non-surgical rhinoplasty, which sees surgeons transform the shape of the nose using filler injections.Then, around 18 months ago, she completed her look by swapping her long black locks for a new bleached blonde barnet, just like her dolly idol.“Even when I had black hair, people would say I looked doll-like,” said Ophelia, who funds her beauty habit with a string of odd jobs, including PA and modelling work.

“I think it’s my eyes, which are naturally large. But I wanted a change, so decided to go fully blonde. Now, I have my hair bleached every two months.”All in all, Ophelia estimates she’s spent around £27,670 ($35,000) on her transformation – and she doesn't plan to stop any time soon.She continued: “I have a full list of surgeries I’d like done, although I don’t have anything lined up at the moment.“I’d love breast and bum implants, but I need to save money and make sure I find the right doctor.
