Did Barbie split Hilary & Joel?

Janet has some gossip that the making of the Hilary Duff Barbie may have clued Hilary into the future prospects, or lack thereof, of her relationship with Joel Madden:

It just leaked out that Hilary Duff’s lookalike Barbie Doll played a big part in her bustup with Joel Madden! Back when Hilary was working closely with the Barbie people to develop the doll, the issue of how important her good-girl image is came up. Hilary was reminded that she must be a good role model for all those little girls buying dolls. Certain people worried about her boyfriend Joel’s rockstar-punk image. Family and friends expressed THEIR concern over Joel’s future – and questioned whether he just riding on successful Hilary’s coattails. It got Hilary to thinking. She really wasn’t happy with her relationship. Finally the Barbie makers brought up the subject of making a ‘boyfriend" doll for Hilary’s doll – like Ken is to Barbie. But they realized they couldn’t make a tattooed pierced rocker doll of Joel, so they dropped the idea. Not long after that, Hilary dropped Joel. – Link

    I agree Amy! Hey, you’re not Amy as in my friend Amy who’s also a HD fan? Maybe not, she doesn’t use “ain’t” lol. Anyhow, yeah Hilary’s an awesome role model AND that’d be the dumbest reason for any girl to dump her bf. The pic of the barbie’s a bit blurry, but it doesn’t look like Hilary to me lol.

    Personnaly I think Hilary is a great role modle and would not dump her boyfriend because he a few tatoos!

    She ain’t cold harted.

    I agree completly with micaela!
    This no make sense!
    Wake up people, this is not true…
    Hilary is the best! :)

  17. By Micaela

    this is so not true!!
    People come on, its hilary duff we are talking about and i think she’s not a kind of girl who wants to be perfect or a role model, i mean she’s a role model because she’s just herself and is that what make her so special!!
    Anyway, role model means be a good person, be nice no a person who judge other people because their image! If Hilary was concern about joel is a punk.rocker she never star dating with him!!
    i still don’t belive this!!
    Go Hilary
    xoxo
