Real-life Ken And Barbie Explain Their ‘Plastic love’
Pixee Fox, 26, has had 17 operations, including four boob jobs, liposuction and the removal of six ribs in a bid to become a real-life Barbie doll.
“Getting my ribs removed has always been a dream of mine,” Fox said last year.
Meanwhile, 35-year-old Justin Jedlica has had more than 340 cosmetic procedures including five nose jobs, as well as implants in his shoulders, back, cheeks, biceps and rear end.
His goal: To become a real-life Ken doll as well as become “100 per cent plastic.”
The two aren’t romantically involved. They’re more friends with medical benefits.
They’ve spent an estimated combined $500,000 on their various surgeries, so it seems once these two cosmetically-enhanced cuties found out about each other, a meeting just had to take place.
That happened earlier this year when both were filming a TV show and they hit it off. So much so that they are now each other’s surgical significant other.
He gave me surgery tips, and had been through the same journey. We’re often judged for our looks, and we instantly bonded,” Fox, a native of Stockholm, told Barcroft TV. “People commented on how we looked like Barbie and Ken, and we loved the attention.”
Now the duo have a relationship befitting the type that the Barbie and Ken dolls in your kid’s toy chest have.
“Our love is a plastic love,” Fox said.

Pregnant woman’s ultra sound shows a rabbit
A proud mum-to-be has posted an incredible picture of her ultrasound scan that looks uncannily like a rabbit.
The shocked woman from Florida in the US shared the bizarre picture showing the profile of a tiny rabbit-shaped foetus — with little bunny ears sticking up and four legs — on social media.
Underneath, she wrote: “Went for my first ultrasound today… turns out I’m having a bunny.”
The expectant mum posted the picture onto reddit under the user name NetteFraulein.
The 33-year-old, who does not want to be named, said: “I thought it was funny. I was nervous because we have lost two in the past so I was relieved when I saw the heart beat at 163 ( indicating a healthy heart rate).
“Then we noticed it was a bunny and had a good laugh about it.” This was the seven week ultrasound so the baby is due in April about a week before Christmas.
One user quipped: “You do realise the expression ‘At it like rabbits’ is not supposed to be taken literally.”

lightning strike kills 323 wild reindeer
More than 300 wild reindeer have been killed by lightning in central Norway in what wildlife officials are calling an unusually large natural disaster.
The Norwegian Environment Agency has released eerie images showing a jumble of reindeer carcasses scattered across a small area on the Hardangervidda mountain plateau. The agency says 323 animals were killed, including 70 calves, in the lightning storm Friday.
Agency spokesman Kjartan Knutsen told the AP it’s not uncommon for reindeer or other wildlife to be killed by lightning strikes, “but we have not heard about such numbers before.”
He said reindeer tend to stay very close to each other in bad weather, which could explain how so many were killed at once.
Thousands of reindeer migrate across the barren Hardanangervidda plateau as the seasons change.

Andaluz posted a time-lapse video to YouTube showing him creating the Pokemon painting, which also includes inspirational messages such as “love your community” and “don’t do drugs.”
“I’ve been waiting to paint the side of the building and wasn’t sure what to do,” Andaluz told Patch. “It was the perfect opportunity.”

some want to ban fat men in france
After the recent controversial burkini ban that has been introduced in some parts of France, people are now calling for another beach-related moratorium.
Many social media users have suggested the French Government would do well to forget burkinis entirely, and focus on something far more offensive: Fat pasty men in Speedos.
As one woman on social networking site Twitter writes: “If people in France are banning burkinis then they really should ban Speedos too because they are 100x more offensive to everyone having to view it.”
Others have called into question the morality of a man being able to expose most of his body in Speedos, while a woman cannot cover up her skin. The tweets follow a satirical news report from The Mideast Beast, which reported that Muslim women were demanding the criminalisation of fat, white men in the tight swimwear.
The recent burkini ban has been widely criticised, after a lone Muslim woman on the beach in Nice was ordered to remove hers.
