Pop star and rock musician Lenny Kravitz is set to be immortalised as a Barbie doll for Ken’s 65th anniversary, with the brand positioning him as a new “Kenbassador.” The release is presented as a collectible featuring details associated with Kravitz, including his signature look.
Across coverage, Barbie’s choice of Kravitz is framed as part of the company’s anniversary celebrations. One outlet describes the doll as designed to match Kravitz’s tattoos and style, along with accessories such as jewelry. Another outlet adds that Kravitz is only the second celebrity to receive this type of honor, distinguishing the role within Barbie’s wider line of celebrity collectible marketing.
While both sources agree on the announcement and the anniversary tie-in, they emphasize different aspects: one focuses on the doll being created for Ken’s 65th birthday, while the other highlights Kravitz’s status as a rare, limited celebrity appointment and the specificity of the doll’s styling.
