The Disney star shared one of her favorite moments, when Mattel made a Barbie that resembled her last year. She explained: ‘After my Oscar moment, Mattel contacted us. They specifically wanted to make a Barbie that looked like me, in my exact outfit from the Oscars. ‘I was so excited that Barbie wanted to diversify their brand. Now all little girls can have a Barbie that looks like them. My Barbie is in a box. I never let anyone touch her.’ The former Shake It Up star revealed that she never played with Barbies when she was a child because ‘They didn’t look like me.’ Well there you go, now she has one that looks exactly like her.
