MATTEL RELEASES TINA TURNER BARBIE DOLL TO CELEBRATE SINGER’S HIT SONG ‘WHAT’S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT’

​Toy company Mattel is celebrating the 40th anniversary of Tina Turner’s hit song with a Barbie created in her likeness.

The doll, which is part of their Barbie Signature Music Series, is wearing an outfit inspired by the music video for one of her songs, “What’s Love Got to Do With It.”

She’s in a black mini dress paired with a denim jacket — and don’t forget about that signature hairstyle.

The eight-time Grammy winner enjoyed huge success in the late 1960s and early 1970s performing with her husband, Ike Turner, but the couple divorced in 1978 after a stormy marriage in which she was beaten.
She retired from performing after her last tour, which ended in 2009.
