00:00 Eve's great no matter where she goes, and Tyra Banks is bringing her back.
00:04 The America's Next Top Model host celebrated the release of the highly anticipated film Barbie
00:11 with a hilarious tribute to her own character from Disney Channel's Life Size.
00:16 On Thursday, the 49-year-old posted a throwback photo of herself all dolled up in bright pink
00:22 as she channeled her hit role as the high-fashion doll Eve on the set of Life Size 2.
00:27 "Ken, you're leaving me for who?" she jokingly captioned the pic.
00:31 Tyra starred in the 2000 made-for-TV movie alongside Lindsay Lohan, where she played
00:36 the toy who comes to life. In 2018, she reprised her role in the reboot with Francia Ressa.
00:42 The model isn't the only one embracing Barbiecore. The summer blockbuster's star Margot Robbie has
00:48 also been paying homage, too, with classic looks from the doll's history. As for the movie,
00:54 it's already a sizzling success, with a reported $22.3 million at the domestic box office in
01:01 Thursday Preview's Variety Reports. Access Hollywood spoke to Margot at the Los Angeles
01:06 premiere, and she broke down her Barbie-inspired style.
01:10 "You look amazing, and I have to say, this is a little bit of a plot twist, so tell us which,
01:14 you're not in pink, which vintage Barbie look are you channeling tonight?"
01:18 "This is Barbie's solo in the spotlight Barbie, yeah, and done by Schiaparelli."
01:23 "Insane, I am obsessed. I feel like you have been killing literally every single
01:27 press tour look that we see. Right when we think it doesn't get better, it does. It's insane."
01:31 "We still got more to show you, just wait."
01:33 "Okay, a little teaser for the fans. I'm obsessed."
01:36 "But I love that everyone's picking up on the references that we're
01:39 imbuing in all these looks. That's fun."
01:41 "For sure, and I know a lot-"
01:42 "We've had a lot of fun. We didn't know if everyone else would get as much of a kick
01:45 out of it as we are getting, but I'm glad to see they are."
01:47 "I mean, everyone's loving it. Have you had a favorite look? I know it's kind of like
01:51 picking your favorite child."
01:52 "I honestly, I don't know. Every new city we go to, I get to do a whole new
01:57 Barbie reference, and then it's my new favorite. So right now, this is my favorite."
02:01 "Okay, good. Well, you have a good reason for that. It looks amazing.
02:04 How many costumes were there in this film? And again, is there a favorite costume?"
02:09 "I honestly couldn't pick a favorite costume, and I don't even know how many
02:13 costume changes I have, but dozens."
02:15 "A lot."
02:16 "Yeah."
02:17 "Okay, so this is a good little throwback we have for you. This is you in 2009,
02:23 if you want to show the camera real quick, at the Australian Nickelodeon Kids Choice.
02:25 I feel like it's very Barbie. Was this a little-"
02:27 "I think this is like me foreshadowing."
02:28 "This is my first- it is very Barbie. This was like my first red carpet, I think.
02:34 I did my own hair and makeup, and I bought that dress, I think, the day before."
02:40 "Yeah."
02:41 "You had the Barbie style in you, even back in 2009, which is amazing."
02:45 "Yeah, this now feels inevitable, yeah."
02:46 "Last question before you get out of here. Are we ever going to see you in pink again?
02:49 Tonight, I'm guessing no."
02:50 "We've still got, like I said, a few more looks to show you. There'll be more pink this summer."
02:54 "We're not done with it yet."
02:56 "I'm living for it. Thank you so much."
