From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Ken (lesser known surname Carson) is a toy doll in Mattel's Barbie line of fashion dolls.
Since 1961, this fictional character had been Barbie's boyfriend, however, Mattel announced their split on February 12, 2004.
Ken's best friend, Allan Sherwood, was introduced in 1963. He has also been marketed as "Alan." Ken's African-American friend Brad also appeared in the 1960's.
Ken featured straight arms and a head that could only turn left and right until the debut of Superstar Ken in 1977. Ken now featured a dazzling smile with dimples, a head that could swivel (perhaps to kiss Barbie?), bent arms, a more muscular physique, and jewelry.
Trivia
- The ken gene in the Drosophila fly was so named because the gene, when deleted, caused the flies to form without external genitalia.
