Superstar Taylor Swift could be under your tree this year, whether you are naughty (Joe Jonas - she’s looking at you) or nice (Taylor Lautner.) The singer’s likeness is being turned into a doll by Jakks Pacific. Ok, so it’s technically not Barbie from Mattel, but you get the idea.

The plastic versions of Swift sing snippets of her hit songs, have cute little mini guitars and are available at Amazon.com for holiday giving.

Mattel is ready to release their official Twilight Edward Cullen and Bella Swan Collector Barbie dolls just in time for “New Moon”. The dolls will be available for $24.95 on November 1, 2009.

These beautiful dolls were made by Sharon Zuckerman, Barbie Collector Designer, who is a huge Twilight fan. Sharon released the following statement:

“I fell in love with the TWILIGHT series and was obsessively reading the books when I was assigned the project to design the Edward and Bella Barbie dolls. As you can imagine, I was thrilled to find out that I would design the dolls and get to work with Stephenie Meyer.

“Stephenie herself came to Mattel and art directed the look of the dolls. She was integral in perfecting every detail as she really wanted Edward and Bella to embody the spirit of the characters that she envisioned while writing the series.

“We also had the ACTUAL costumes from the movie set that were used in the “Forever 17” scene to help inspire the costumes for the dolls. It was an unforgettable experience and I hope TWILIGHT fans are just as excited about the dolls as I am!”

Love these Barbie dolls. They look so real and super cute and they are sold for an affordable price. Are you going to buy your own Edward & Bella Barbie??
