Celebrities I Want to See in the Barbie Movie

The newest trailer for “Barbie” came out a little over a week ago, and I like almost everyone else, I am extremely excited. We don’t know much about the plot of the movie, but we have been given a good look at the celebrity-stacked cast. We knew that Barbie and Ken would be played by Margot Robbie and Ken by Ryan Gosling, but in the newest trailer, we also saw actors such as Simu Liu, Emma Mackey, and Will Ferrell. With so many famous people announced in this cast, all I am wondering is who else will make an appearance in the film. Here are some celebrities I really hope we see in the Barbie movie. 

Lizzo “This Barbie is Good As Hell”

I would love to see Lizzo in the barbie movie. She has been the queen of Barbiecore recently so I think she deserves an appearance. Image her pulling out a pink bedazzled flute…Perfection! I would even settle for a song on the soundtrack. 

Trisha Paytas “This Barbie loves Jesus”

Now, this one may seem crazy but if you really think about it, it makes perfect sense. She was made to be in this movie. I mean she literally named her baby Malibu Barbie so I think an appearance by the both of them is a need not a want. 

Nicki Minaj “This Barbie is Queen of the Barbz”

No one deserves a cameo in this movie more than Nicki. There is even a petition on change.org to get her in it. Also give her a song in the movie, or every song in the movie.

Trixie Mattel “This Barbie is an All-Star”

Trixie is the only Barbie who should even be in this movie. She should have gotten the lead but unfortunately, I will settle for a background character. 

Jack Black “He’s just Ken”

I am just a firm believer that Jack Black should be in every movie. Especially after his promo for The Super Mario Bros. Movie. Not only should he be in this movie, but he should replace Ryan Gosling. I am half kidding half not kidding. 

I have very high hopes for this movie as does the rest of the world. With such great actors and an amazing director, I really don’t see this movie being bad. Although, I do believe these celebrities would help bring the rotten tomato score up to 100%.
