With a teeny waist, exaggerated breasts, icy-blue eyes, 21-year-old Valeria says she is the real natural deal. A real-life Barbie, that is.

腰部纤细，胸部夸张，眼睛冰蓝，21岁的维拉利亚说，她是真实自然的芭比。也就是说，她是生活中真实的芭比娃娃。

That's what she claims anyway, but many people doubt her claims. Whether she underwent plastic surgery or uses Photoshop remains unclear. On her blog, the model notes that she is the most famous woman on the Russian Internet because of her doll-like appeal. Hundreds of photos on her Facebook page show a wide-eyed, nearly fake-looking Valeria posing in a variety of outfits.

不管怎样，那是她自己的说法，很多人对此说法表示怀疑。她是做了整形手术还是使用了PS软件，我们不得而知。在她的博客上，这位模特说，因为她具有芭比娃娃一样的魅力，所以她是俄罗斯互联网上最出名的人物。在维拉利亚的脸谱网网页上有上千幅图片，图片上的她眼睛大大的，脸像假的一样，展示着各种服装。

The model did not return requests for comment. If Photoshop is not a factor in getting Valeria's look, she likely underwent a barrage of plastic surgery. The president of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons（ASPS）said, plastic surgery should never be used to transform oneself into a favorite celebrity or, in this case, a play toy. He also warns patients to keep in mind that plastic surgery is real surgery with real risks, just as with any operation, so the decision should not be taken lightly.

这位模特没有对评论做出回应。如果不是PS软件帮助她获得现在的容貌的话，那她可能做了一系列的整形手术。美国整形医师协会主席说，整形手术绝不应该用于把一个人整成自己喜欢的名人的样子，或者像这个案例，整成玩具的样子。他还告诫人们要牢记，整形手术也是手术，也有着实实在在的风险，因此做决定时要慎重。

Whether Valeria is real or fake, photoshopped or a product of plastic surgery, the mystery of her existence is not the issue. The problem is that her unnatural image exemplifies the issue of objectification of women in today's society.

不管维拉利亚的芭比形象是真是假，是软件处理的还是整形手术的产物，她是否存在已经不是争议的重点。重点是她那不自然的形象是当今社会把女性物化的例证。

Barbie has always been controversial and really changed the discussion on how girls play. When Barbie came into existence, play suddenly became about dressing up and looking right and it eventually played a role in how women wanted to look in real life.

芭比娃娃形象本身一直存有争议，它也确实改变了女孩们的妆扮方式。当芭比形象渐入人心时，化妆突然等同于妆扮得体和赏心悦目，这对女性在现实生活中的妆扮产生了很大的影响。

Valeria is an extreme example of societal expectations of perfect beauty. If society expects women to look like that, it is harder for almost any woman to totally resist it.

维拉利亚是社会对极致美丽期望的终极代表。如果社会期望女人们那样妆扮，那么任何一个女人都很难坚持不去那样妆扮。
