[xjbratz1231]

lolol i like that part where the singer says dress the best they make you wanna dance.....know one else really has a CHANCE! lol that's a little subliminal message to jem saying give it up cause now that were on the market your over hahahaha and barbie won that round until that fateful year of 2001.............bum bum bummmmm

@ ColdDish1 a cassette is a tape that plays music

[landcommander1981]

"She's it!" um, honey, you left out the Sh. :p Jem is Truly Outrageous!

[BlaqueReign25]

Was that Fergie in this commercial?

[famen23]

Ja Ja Ja yo tuve mi Barbie Rocker, con ropa ochentera y el dichoso cassette fue lo único que conservé por mucho tiempo hasta que finalmente me deshice de él.

[ColdDish1]

[PinkPiercing07]

@ColdDish1 Ur right, what IS a cassette?

[emscollins19]

Barbie loves Spray net. She has caused global warming! Shame on you Barbie!

[12burtonboy]

[TVsPaSmmm]

Her hair was bigger than her head !

[BentSTICKERS13]

[bobo4890]

[mercyhurstchic]

Wow, first time in over 20 years since I've seen this commercial. I feel frickin' old now and I'm only 32.

[safehouse123]

@mercyhurstchic i hear ya:(

[ladygirl99]

@mercyhurstchic I just turned 33 this year I know how you feel sigh lol.

[corruptnightfall]

Oh my!!!

Thats some funky hair for Barbie. Looked adorable in the movie though!

[GypsyFairy69]

Damn Barbie has some big jacked up hair!

Just like mine used to be back then.

[reymatt76]

@GypsyFairy69 Just like all of ours! At least she didn't have a mullett.

[rebeld0ll]

I remember winning this Barbie at my dad's old company's picnic raffle...I traded her for a Jem and won the same doll the next year so I didn't feel so bad...lol for some reason I liked this doll's hair more, but Jem was truly outrageous!!!

[ilovedisney84]

Truly truly truly outrageous LOL!!!

[Caitshybabes]

i have the video of barbie and the rockstar xD

[jenndiva1]

loves it!!! I have her in her orig box and all the rockers too thanks for posting this good memories!!

[ultragor]

She wouldn't have taken this persona if JEM hadn't outsold her in 1985.

Alternate lyrics:

Barbie...and the Hookers!

Total slut and selling herself each night!

Barbie...no hope for her at all!

"She AIN'T!"

[chrestensonsgirl]

This was me and my sisers fav comercial when we were little I have all of the Rockers still with their original clothes

[BridgetSullivanMusic]

Oh hells yeah. I used to roller skate in my garage to that cassette.

[stephgrace17]

Me too...

[idigcows]

Great Hair???

[olive345]

"She's IT!"

lol

[Plunaria]

Yey for Jem-poser Barbie~!

[missworthy]

She was one of my favorite Barbies ever!!!!!!!!!!

[valandnat]

wow...

[amandajigsaw123]

this makes me wish i wasent born in 94

[SurferRosa79]

aw, I totally had the Barbie and the Rockers music set, with cassette and weird violet satin and fuchsia sash Ken lol...I think they're polluting the earth right now in a dumpster somewhere...how many years does a barbie take to decompose I wonder hmmmm

[venusrevolution]

It's new Red Neck Hooker BEULAH (FREIND of Barbie)....

You can make Bar-we mean BEULAH say provocative things! Buy the new Street Corner playset and KEV (Friend of KEN) for more fashionable-adult fun!

There's more hair then doll! And why is their boys in these commercials?

[batavias]

Barbie looked like a hooker

[milofire]

Like omg! Barbie is like such a poser! Jem rules! Jem was the 1st to come w/ a audio cassette tape. I guess Barbie is a classic and all....reinventing herself...daring to try all styles...but...Jem is truly outrageous! truly, truly, TRULY outrageous!!! PeacexXx!!!

[Treemeadow]

AMEN! AMEN!

[legendofzeldafreak2]

gey, I have a strange doll that fits into barbie clothes, but she has big flat feet. Was she a Jem? Her hair is black and mega frizzy/insane. Her outfit is a dress with a colorful cape with patches of green and gold and another color I can't remember. I've alwaus been curios, this may be my time to know!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RetroGirl85]

i dont think its a jem doll. jem dolls couldnt fit in most barbie clothes, and the only doll i know of that has black hair that was a jem doll was jetta, one of the misfits, and her hair was kind of spiky looking, wouldve been hard to make it frizzy. it must be something else. maybe its a darcy doll??? she had flat feet like jem kinda but she was blonde , unless they made it with dark hair at one point, hard to say..

[menerva4]

@milofire I totally agree with you. This was an weak attempt to try and nix what hasbro had going with Jem . Jem was much cooler, however, my sister and I had them both.

[miamivicepastels83]

@milofire lmao!! "poser barbie"

[carmenjones411]

@milofire Oh yeah! And wheres Jem now? Probably in some low rate version of the Betty Ford clinic! Barbie is that chick!

[sHaDoWoFsWoRdS]

i still have those dolls at home.....

[mexfem1]

I remember the song, always.

[citything]

lol it comes with a cassette! that's fucking awesome!

[mtERE]

I know!

[erikka10]

When will big hair come back in style? :-)

[coolperson454]

NOOO! especially if it looks like barbies in the comercial

[riverandraven]

HUGE HAIR..she sure changed from the 50s

[Spottychan]

I had one of the Rockers. We had the same name. Dana.

[QOGFProd]

[VanessaTheROCKchick]

[iamm3lissa]

[NROBAYO]

LOL

OMG! I remember the Cassette!

My Fave was Dressing Up.....

"I'm dressing up looking good and feeling so Alive......"

Great Stuff Brings Back So Many Childhood Memories

[missinvisible1]

Cool....Thats the only song I remember it was my favorite 2!!!! "Dressing up I've got my clothes and I'm going in style"!!!

[LadyEbonee]

i still have my barbie and the rocker's cassette tape. it was AWESOME. seeing this on youtube prompted me to dig it up. all four songs were HOT:

(1) The Rockers Theme

(2) Dressin Up

(3) Born with a Mike (my personal favorite)

(4) stretchin it

[HeadCrab007]

SHES IT!

[wsbmoore]

[kindersczenen]

I'm ashamed to admit that I wore my hair like that when I was a pre-teen. They should take away my fashion card. ;-)

[JoeSmoeX]

Nonsense! 80s girls rocked the house! ;^]

[FightTheTide]

Holy frick, she looks like my mom in the 80's; twiggy with giant blonde hair.

[meganspees]

Hahahaha they were still making the Barbie and the Rockers dolls in the early '90s, because I remember getting mine in about kindergarten...I loved the tape, LOL

[henta08]

My sisters and I had the cassette tape of all the songs..I wish we still had it..i cant find it..

[boopy78]

I had every single one of the rockers. I found one under my freezer the other day.

[boopy78]

Plus, the best part was that they eah came with those tshirts with the rockers logo for them to wear! YES!!

[LadyDee1980]

LOL...I had this, The barbies had Jersey Girl hairdos....

[ABCDEinstien]

[AurynMajere]

Omg I loved the songs...I never had the doll but I have the videotape where they sing the world peace concert in outerspace and then get sucked back to 1959! *looks around nervously* heheheh...hey it was cool back then lol.

[puppyprincess505]

[megarouge2001]

Ooooh, the 80s.  Man, was our hair big. Biiiiig hair.

[luvablek]

[morphine883]

Then you'll remember this one: "Dressin' Up! Dressin' Up!" That was my favorite one on the tape!!

[ianboywonder]

Just so you know Bratz Dolls are made by Mattel, it's there attempt to get slutty kids to actually take interest in dolls instead of intercourse.

[tygersflowers]

Haha, this was Mattel trying in vain to compete with the Jem and the Holograms dolls which were HUGE.... and they never quite succeeded.... kind of like how they are now starting to make some really ugly dolls with slanty eyes to compete w/the Bratz dolls. :)

[Anathryn]

Was that Paris Hilton? oh wait no Paris is totally more fake looking than that.

[iamdeprogram]

You're telling me Barbie and the Rockers had an album out? I want it! Move over Milli Vanilli!

[sleepyxthexhead]

[caddymarie]

[Cargo1273]

DAMN! that's one big-ass Texas hair style! She's going for the Tammy Faye look.

[Barnstormersgirl]

[rosierivets]

[Seveep]

[Sweetbug74]

[twinkiekinz]

My sister played this cassette over and over a million times. We still remember most of the words.

[mangashojo865]

[minnied84]

I had a rocker I heard they are worth a lot of money now.

[cwinnipeg]

Only if you have it in it's box, unopened with the casette. Jem and the Holograms dolls are worth ALOT more money... and she was so much better!

[gothhydran]

HA!!!! Jem was much better, including the music. :D

[mdksailormoon]
