Half a million to become a “Real-Life Barbie”
Former Bunny Girl Sarah Burge has spent half a million pounds turning herself into a real-life Barbie doll.
The 49-year-old housewife and beautician from St Neots, in Cambridgeshire has spent £539,500 transforming herself – breaking the world record previously held by American Cindy Jackson.
The half-million pound costs include: £32,000 have her whole face lasered to remove a layer of skin to give it a more youthful look; £26,500 on perfecting her bust – including having it reduced and the nipples moved; £30,000 keeping her jawline firm; nearly £15,000 on her tummy; and £14,000 on keeping her bottom pert.
She has become a walking advert for the surgeons who carried out work on her – sometimes they’ve even carried out procedures free.
When she married husband Tony three years ago, she dressed as a Barbie bridge in a pink gown and veil
Sarah said: ‘It’s addictive – you find yourself wondering what you can have done next? It’s not that I’m unhappy with the way I look – I’ve always been confident about my appearance.
‘That’s why I want to keep my body and face as they are. All the work I’ve had done has been to stop the ageing process.’

What the hell? There is all the women trying to show men that we are not like little barbies and we are independent and then there is this shallow women that is trying to stop the ‘aging process’. Really this shows her insecruity, and personally i think she needs to look at herself she looks pethetic and to be honest not that good looking. I think she looked far better before and the money she spent should have been spent on her children? x
