"I lived in a tri-level house. And I remember coming downstairs on Christmas morning and my mother was playing with the entire Barbie set that Santa had left me. My kid sister, who's like eight years younger than me, would always take the Barbies and she always wanted to play with me. 'Well, what can I be? Which Barbie can I be?' (she'd ask). And finally I just had enough of it, so I said, 'Okay, you can be my assistant.'"

"Barbie, you and I, we used to play together. It was totally under wraps. It was one of those clandestine relationships I didn't want anyone to know about."

"Mine is funny. Well, it's sort of sad. When I was growing up in the '70s, my parents were hippies, and they didn't really want me to have dolls and things like that. So I used to go to my friends' houses and pay with their Barbies, but then they would always have to go away and I wouldn't have one on my own."

"Barbie became a figure-skating doll. And I also cut her hair. My sister, Karen, and I would just do these skating moves with it. She would do spirals — you know, what we do on the ice. Especially in a great position, and then she would do these double axels."

"I had a life-size Barbie. And one day I thought it would be really cool to chop off all her hair and give her a makeover, and my mom got really mad at me and we had to sell it in a garage sale because she was basically ruined. Happy 50th birthday, Barbie."

"I waited two years for a Miss America Barbie Doll, and it never came. Finally I wrote them a really angry letter, and I held on to that angry letter for two years — which really says something about me — and they sent me one."

"My first Barbie dolls all had haircuts. And Magic Marker makeup and rusty limbs because they all used to have wire in them. So I have a memory of all my Barbie dolls basically being broken and punky."

"I was the voice of Ken in the Rapunzel video. So I have a very dear, dear spot in my heart for Ken. And obviously, so does my daughter, Catherine. Barbie, happy 50th birthday, and thanks for all the great memories."

"My sister took some of my G.I. Joe dolls and dressed them in Barbie clothes, and I wasn't too happy about that. So I took one of her Barbie dolls and placed her on a bed of firecrackers. And I lit it and blew Barbie up into billions of little pieces. So, here I am saying to a descendant of that Barbie from 1971: I am sorry. I am very very sorry. Brings a tear to my eye."

"Happy birthday, Barbie. I can't believe you're 50. Thank God you're older than me."

"Sadly, I grew up with many Barbie dolls because I have two sisters. And they had about 40 Barbie dolls and massive Barbie dollhouses and all the rest of it. And my action men were turned into Ken Barbie dolls. So that's my story."
