Venus Williams and eight other female athletes now have their own one-of-a-kind Barbie dolls, Mattel announced on Wednesday.
“Throughout my career, I’ve always been driven by the idea of shattering glass ceilings and staying true to myself, and Barbie’s mission couldn’t resonate more deeply with that ethos,” Williams said in a statement. “I’m honored to be recognized as a sports role model and join forces with Team Barbie to continue empowering the next generation of young girls to never stop believing in their dreams.”
Below, see all nine dolls included in Mattel’s latest Role Model release.
