you mean it sounds like promoting pedophilia?
Actually, I hadn't considered the pedophilia angle. I was just talking about how the song treats Barbie (and women in general) as playthings to be manipulated by others, especially men.
In 1997, Mattel actually sued Aqua over that song, for trademark infringement, but it was dismissed. It was ruled that the song was protected as a parody. So VERY ironic; I guess Mattel decided if they couldn't stop the song, they might as well capitalize on it.
Yeah, I recently read about the lawsuit. I hadn't originally known about that. The irony just keeps getting better.
