In the latest issue of O Magazine, model Katie Halchishick shows the changes she would have to undergo to match Barbie's dimensions (top picture below, from O Magazine). The procedures are too numerous to list here. However, as you can see from the bottom picture (from her site Healthy is the New Skinny), there's nothing wrong with Katie Halchishick the way she looks now.

Carly Foulkes, more popularly known as the T-Mobile girl, will appear in FX's new series "Powers", about a world where superpowers are common.
