Paris Hilton Launches Her Own Line of Dolls!


Heiress/Singer/Actress Paris Hilton launched the Hilton dolls, made by Germany’s Simba Toys, will go on sale in Europe this year alongside Simba’s existing doll character, Steffi Love, which competes in a fashion doll market dominated by a US rival, Barbie.
While the wide-eyed dolls do not resemble Hilton in the face, they do authentically represent her taste. The real-life Hilton chose three glitzy outfits — including silver streaked hair, jewelry and MP3 player — for the dolls: Party, Glam Summer and Shopping.
A Simba executive, Jürgen Deschner, said the products would have a starting pretax price of 8.40 euros ($12.40).
Simba, which has signed up for an initial two-year license from Hilton, has prepared a flesh-and-blood Hilton look-alike to smile at the visitors on its stand at the Nuremberg Toy Fair from Feb. 7 to Feb. 12.
Hilton said Simba wasn’t the first company to approach her about a doll, but the 26-year-old snubbed her other suitor’s less wholesome proposal.
“This company was like, ‘They’ll sell for $50,000 each, it’ll be the real-life you,’” she added. “And I’m like, ‘I really don’t want a real-life me with anyone, anywhere.’”
