Canadian soccer star Christine Sinclair gets her own Barbie doll

One of Canada's greatest athletes just got her own Barbie doll. To be sitting here with my actual Barbie is just a huge honor. Christine Sinclair, the Burnaby born soccer legend, has been recognized by Mattel for being the leading international scorer in women's soccer with 190 goals in 331 appearances for Canada. I am a firm, firm believer that you need to see it to believe it. As a young kid for myself growing up, I didn't have female athlete role models to look up to. I hope to show young, especially young girls obviously, that anything is possible. And as part of Barbie's 65th anniversary, Mattel has also honored eight other athletes. Mattel says by shining a light on international athletes, they hope to champion the belief that every young girl deserves the opportunity to pursue her passions and turn her dreams into reality.
