Fans of Aaliyah and Barbie alike have something extraordinary to look forward to. The official Aaliyah Barbie Signature Doll is set to be released next year in honor of her 46th birthday. Read more and get the first look inside.

On January 16, 2025, an official Aaliyah Barbie will be available for fans and Barbie enthusiasts, which also aligns with a heartfelt celebration of the late singer’s life, legacy, and timeless influence on music and style.

The Aaliyah Barbie is inspired by the outfit she wore in her iconic One In A Million era, perfectly capturing the essence of her signature style. Known for blending streetwear with glamorous sophistication, Aaliyah’s look redefined what it meant to be effortlessly cool in the late ’90s and early 2000s. The doll’s ensemble features a sleek crop top, oversized pants, and feminine-meets-edgy aesthetic that fans adored, paying homage to a fashion icon who left an indelible mark on both music and fashion.

Mattel’s Barbie Signature line is no stranger to honoring cultural icons, and Aaliyah’s addition to this roster feels long overdue. As a trailblazing R&B artist, actress, and trendsetter, Aaliyah continues to inspire generations with her smooth vocals, innovative artistry, and unmistakable charisma. This collaboration not only celebrates her legacy but also introduces her story to a new generation of fans.

For collectors and fans alike, the Aaliyah Barbie represents more than a doll. It’s a tribute to a legend who was taken far too soon. A notable figure in music history, whose influence is still felt deeply today. The doll is expected to sell out quickly, as it resonates with those who grew up admiring Aaliyah’s talent and style and with younger fans who’ve come to appreciate her timeless work.

Set your calendars for January 16, 2025, and prepare to celebrate Aaliyah’s birthday in a way that honors her enduring spirit. Whether you’re a devoted Barbie collector or simply a fan of Aaliyah’s brilliance, this release is truly One in a Million.
