To celebrate turning 50, Emmy award-winning actress and activist Laverne Cox got dolled up, Barbie-style.
“I think this year, particularly, when over 250 pieces of anti-transgender legislation have been introduced in state legislatures all over the country, targeting transgender children, LGBTQ youth, that I hope all the kids who are feeling stigmatized when their health care is being jeopardized, their ability to play in sports, I hope they can see this Barbie and have a sense of hope and possibility,” Cox said.
On Thursday, Cox hosted “A Very Barbie Birthday” party on the rooftop of New York City’s Moxy Hotel, asGuests, many of whom also dressed in tribute to the 63-year-old fashion doll, walked a pink carpet. Cox modeled lifesize versions of her doll’s red ball gown, silver bodysuit and accessories, including high-heeled boots and silver earrings.... [+]Getty Images for Laverne Cox
