As if the glorious trailers and teasers for Barbie haven’t already finished a unbelievable job of promoting the Greta Gerwig comedy’s candy-colored charms surrounding Margot Robbie’s magical presence, the upcoming Warner Bros. characteristic might be promoted in a wonderfully on-brand method on HGTV within the type of a brand new competitors sequence. Given the channel, it’s clearly not going to be about convertibles or vogue, however will give attention to one other iconic aspect of the doll’s lifespan: her Dreamhouse! And there are tons of HGTV all-stars like Windy Metropolis Rehab host Alison Victoria and Christina Corridor becoming a member of the enjoyable!
HGTV formally introduced its latest competitors sequence, Barbie Dreamhouse Problem, which boasts fairly a robust basis, that includes a bunch of fan-favorite designers, shock visitor stars, and all types of Barbie-related magnificence. To not point out it’s going to be hosted by supermodel and writer Ashley Graham (who’ll little question have a much less awkward time right here than on the crimson carpet with Hugh Grant). All with the central purpose of reworking a Southern California house right into a real-life model of the basic Dreamhouse toy, which a pleasant obsessed fan will get an opportunity to spend the night time in. There aren’t any losers right here, although, simply winners.
Talking of these vying for victories, right here’s a lineup of the eight groups that we’ll see:
- Alison Victoria (Windy Metropolis Rehab) and Ty Pennington (Rock the Block)
- Christina Corridor and James Bender (Christina on the Coast)
- Egypt Sherrod and Mike Jackson (Married to Actual Property)
- Jasmine Roth (Assist! I Wrecked My Home) and Antonia Lofaso (Beachside Brawl)
- Jonathan Knight and Kristina Crestin (Farmhouse Fixer)
- Keith Bynum and Evan Thomas (Discount Block)
- Brian and Mika Kleinschmidt (100 Day Dream House)
- Michel Smith Boyd and Anthony Elle Williams (Luxe for Much less)
The upcoming movie and TV present share Warner Bros. Discovery as a mum or dad firm, giving the HGTV sequence all of the Mattel authenticity it must carry Barbie’s Dreamhouse into 2023. Although that does not imply the type might be utterly fashionable, because the sequence’ 4 episodes will harken again to the previous a long time of the toy house’s existence by its challenges.
For instance, totally different areas of the home might be modeled after particular eras. The kitchen could have a Sixties “atomic age” vibe, “Ken’s Den” might be disco-leaning with ’70s grooviness, and the bed room set-up might be themed for ’80s glam. (David Bowie posters for the win.) It is not completely clear simply but how the competing will work, so far as profitable challenges and implementing concepts goes, however I am exiciting to see if the assorted kinds and factors of view will mesh effectively collectively.
Ashley Graham shared her pleasure for the brand new venture in an announcement, saying:
I can’t wait to see Barbie’s signature type get the life-sized remedy in an precise house. She holds such a particular place in my coronary heart, particularly since Mattel created a one-of-a-kind doll of me again in 2016. It appears like such a full circle second now that I’ve a hand within the creation of her real-life Dreamhouse.
