Barbie Princess & the Pop Star [Review & Giveaway]

This Giveaway is now CLOSED...WINNER TBA!

Hey all you girl mamas out there! I'm sure by now your daughters have been bugging you for the latest movie in the Barbie series....."Barbie, Princess and the Popstar"...like mine has......so have I got a great giveaway for you today!

Barbie Princess and the Popstar stars princess Tori who has dreams of being a famous singer like her favorite popstar Keira, and Keira who wishes she has more free time away fom popstar life to focus on her main passion: songwriting!  By chance....the 2 girls meet and decide to switch places each wanting to become the other for a day :) 

If you wanna know more you'll just have to go out and get it yourself! The DVD happened to come out on Sofia's birthday 9/11......but I went to 3 different Targets and all were sold out the first day! But I was able to pick her up a copy a few days later but I'm waiting until her party this weekend to give it to her!

So recently, I was contacted to host a Review/Giveaway and I was so excited because as a little girl .......Barbie was NO DOUBT my favorite toy.  My Dad KNEW on Christmas and birthdays ...Barbie was the way to go......so I was always a happy little girl!  Now, as my own 5 year old is becoming a barbie lover ...I get to relive my childhood all over again :)

As with all the Barbie movies that have come before.....they have put out a fabulous line of dolls as accompanying each movie We had the privledge of reviewing not one...but BOTH of these lovely dolls....



.....and let me tell you Barbie sure has come a long way since I was a kid.  They're definitely alot more flexible and each of these dolls transforms with a twist of their hair and dress ....from princess....to popstar.  The magic necklaces also each place a song from the movie when pushed.



Can you tell how excited she is!




Testing out the musical necklace!



She really DID insist that we should read the directions before opening them ..HA!












Changing their princess outfits into the popstar outfits :)





Even my son wanted in on all the Barbie action....just don't tell his dad..LOL!


I think he just thought she was pretty though...because he kept kissing her ...AWWWW!




So NOW .....you have the chance to win one of these lovely Barbies (you choose which one) too! Heres how:

    1. I just figured it out too - after you post - underneath you'll see the 'like', 'share', etc....next to that is the time when you posted - example 'about a minute ago'- when you click on that (time option), it brings you to a page that has just the post on it.....then you can copy the direct link from the top. Hope this helps!
