Come on Lesbian Barbie, Let’s Go Party

Hey speaking of the Barbie movie? Is Barbie in Lesbian with America Ferrera in the movie? So a new clip from the highly anticipated movie adaptation of a plastic doll has what’s left of Lesbian Twitter (Yes, I signed up for Bluesky. I am resisting Threads for as long as I can. Dammit.) is pretty sure Barbie and Gloria are in lesbian with each other.

As much as this movie is the ultimate in product placement, I’m holding out hope that Greta Gerwig’s vision of a day-glow army of Barbies and Kens will unleash cinematic eye AND mind candy on us all next week.

Now, as much as Margo and America play up this moment for maximum Eye Sex, immediately followed by possible kidnapping and/or rescuing, I just don’t think Mattel would allow it to be that explicit. Like, sure, they can use “Close to Fine” and sure they can have Kate McKinnon hold us the Birkenstock of Reality. But allow Barbie and a lady who isn’t Skipper to give each other long, lingering looks that then lead to hot, sweaty plastic nights? Doubtful. But, Wishful Gay Thinking is perhaps the most powerful wishful thinking in the universe. So, I say, if Barbie can live in her own Dream House we can live in a world with its own Dream Lesbian Barbie Movie.
