'Human Ken Doll' Comes Out As Transgender: 'Inside I've Always Felt Like Barbie'

Roddy Alves, a former contestant on Celebrity Big Brother, has long been known as the "human Ken doll."

Alves spent over $650,000 on cosmetic surgeries, "including having four ribs removed, a "cat-eye" lift and so many nose surgeries that it began sinking and disintegrating" according to The New York Post.


Now, however, Alves has come out as transgender to The Mirror, revealing she has always felt more like Barbie than Ken on the inside.

"I'm known as Ken but inside I've always felt like Barbie."

Alves will now be using "she" and "her" pronouns while changing her first name to Roddy.

"I finally feel like the real me. Glamorous, beautiful and feminine."

Alves has now received additional surgeries to give herself a D-cup bust and fuller hips/lips.

All photos prior to her transition have been removed from Instagram and replaced with photos of herself as "Barbie."

The Brazil-born personality says she finally feels content now that her "body matches her mind."

"For years I tried to live my life as a man. I had a fake six-pack put in, I had fake muscles in my arms, but I was lying to myself. I'm a woman and have always had a feminine brain. Now my body matches my mind."

She is now looking forward to gender confirmation surgery.

"I will have a penile inversion and my testicles will be removed. That will be the final step. Before that I'm having silicone breast implants. I'll be able to wear dresses that show my cleavage and look sexy. I'm very excited."


Alves realized she wanted to transition during a photo shoot last year.

She now has plans to receive cosmetic surgeries to reshape her forehead, shave her jawline and remove her adam's apple.

She spoke about how she felt as a child, saying:

"Growing up, I was very feminine and used to play with dolls and wear my mum's dresses and heels."


Ultimately, Alves claims she has never felt better.

"Within a month I was diagnosed with gender dysmorphic disorder and given the option to start the ­appropriate medication to transition."
"Before, people looked at me because I looked very androgynous and weird for a man. Now I hope they are looking because they think I am a beautiful woman."

Trump Just Epically Threw JD Vance Under The Bus While Trying To Insult Tim Walz—And Yikes!

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump seemingly revealed his true feelings about his Heritage Foundation-chosen Vice President JD Vance during a recent rambling attempt to slam Minnesota Democratic Governor Tim Walz. Vance was in the room at the time that the POTUS called him "incompetent."

Handed a setup by a Trump administration-friendly member of the White House press corps about an investigation into the fraudulent use of COVID relief funds in Minnesota—which Pam Bondi's Department of Justice has been focusing on while ignoring similar crimes in red states, Trump began by ranting about Somali immigrants, again, before attacking Governor Walz, again.

Megyn Kelly Slammed After Sharing Her Sadistic Desire To See People On Suspected Drug Boats 'Suffer'

Right-wing talk show host Megyn Kelly was criticized after she revealed she not only supports the Department of Defense's attacks on alleged drug-smuggling vessels in the Caribbean but wants anyone aboard these boats to "suffer," even saying that she hopes they "lose a limb and bleed out" slowly.

Kelly spoke after a Washington Post investigation published last week alleging that in September Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth directed a U.S. strike unit to eliminate everyone aboard a single vessel. According to the report, after two people were later spotted alive in the wreckage, commanders authorized a follow-up “double tap” strike to ensure their deaths.
