Barbie's 50th Birthday

Many changes of career, including a run for US president, she's also been the subject of a number of lawsuits.
Despite all that, she's not got a wrinkle on her forehead or a single grey hair.
The children's doll Barbie celebrates her half-century on 9 March, 2009.
Parties will be taking place across the world to mark the occasion, and the world's first store dedicated to the doll has been opened in Shanghai.
