\n\tBarbie<\/a> has been on a roll with its new releases \u2014 from the Miley Cyrus doll<\/a> to the Angel Reese Barbie <\/a>and even the signature holiday series<\/a>, the brand has had no shortage of ideas when it comes to paying tribute to some of the world\u2019s biggest icons. Now, Mattel is honoring another superstar: Whitney Houston<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tJust released today, the Whitney Houston<\/a> Barbie doll is available for purchase on Walmart and Amazon, and features Houston in the same dress she wore in the \u201cI Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)\u201d music video, per the official product description. That means she\u2019s decked out in a sleek purple dress, statement curly locks, accessories, and makeup that makes her look like she just walked off set.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tAt the time of this writing, the price for this product is listed at $60, but prices for Barbie Signature Series items tend to fluctuate rapidly.\t<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile Houston died in 2012<\/a>, this Barbie was created in partnership with Pat Houston, executor of Whitney Houston\u2019s estate.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cToday, we celebrate more than the release of a doll; we celebrate the enduring legacy of an icon. The new Whitney Houston Barbie honors a woman whose voice, grace, beauty, and spirit inspired generations around the world. May this doll remind every child and every collector that dreams have no limits, excellence leaves a lasting imprint, and true greatness never goes out of style. Thank you, Mattel, for making one of Whitney\u2019s dreams come true,\u201d Pat Houston, Executor, The Estate of Whitney E. Houston and President, The Whitney E. Houston Legacy Foundation, said in a release.<\/p>\n

\n\tThroughout her life, Houston won six Grammy Awards out of 25 nominations. Some of her biggest hits include \u201cI Will Always Love You,\u201d \u201cI Wanna Dance With Somebody<\/a>\u201d (the inspiration for this doll), and \u201cHow Will I Know.\u201d Her string of chart-topping hits eventually landed her in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame posthumously in 2020, as well as a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records. Today, her songs on Spotify have racked up over 8.8 billion streams.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\"\"<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWhitney Houston\u2019s music has been the soundtrack to countless moments for fans around the world. Barbie is proud to honor her extraordinary legacy with the latest addition to the Barbie Signature Series. Created in close collaboration with Pat Houston, Executor of The Estate of Whitney E. Houston and President of The Whitney E. Houston Legacy Foundation, this doll celebrates her unmistakable style, joy and spirit. We hope it gives fans a meaningful way to celebrate the artist whose voice and influence continue to resonate around the world,\u201d Nathan Baynard, Vice President and Head of Barbie, Mattel, said in a release.<\/p>\n
