2 1/2 year old granddaughter loves it!
My granddaughter kept saying she wanted microphone Barbie, something she had seen. She is young so we weren't sure what it was she had seen. If this isn't it, it's the closest thing to it and it's pretty neat. I said do you really like it and she said yes grandma. I hit the button and of all things the "love it" words came out. Thought we would all die laughing. She's...

Sort of boring
My daughter wanted a talking Barbie and this was the only thing I could find. She only says two phrases, or rather says one phrase ("Love it!") and sings/raps the other. You can plug in your iPod, but she doesn't sing along. She only repeats her two phrases. That being said, my daughter does play with her, in the same way she plays with any Barbie. Could have saved myself...

2 1/2 year old granddaughter loves it!, December 29, 2008

This review is from: Mattel Barbie Chat Divas Doll (Toy)
My granddaughter kept saying she wanted microphone Barbie, something she had seen. She is young so we weren't sure what it was she had seen. If this isn't it, it's the closest thing to it and it's pretty neat. I said do you really like it and she said yes grandma. I hit the button and of all things the "love it" words came out. Thought we would all die laughing. She's having a great time with it. She may be a little young for all of the features, but she can be taught it as she goes along. I also got this at a great price compared to what I had seen, so I was definitely happy with that. Thanks.

Not too happy, October 11, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Mattel Barbie Chat Divas Doll (Toy)
I bought this doll for my Grandchild's 6th birthday. I made arrangements to make sure she had her Ipod with her when she opened her gift. The doll said only 2 phrases, over and over again. When we hooked it up to the Ipod it would start to play a song and then quit. I changed the batteries, but it didn't make a difference. IT JUST DOESN'T WORK. WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY! A VERY DISAPPOINTED BIRTHDAY GIRL.

Could have saved myself some money and bought a regular Barbie.

Hey girl, what's up, May 28, 2007
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Mattel Barbie Chat Divas Doll (Toy)
I recently purchased this doll for my little sister. When I saw the cool commercial, I just knew I had to buy her one. Unfortunately, I think I was more excited about the doll then she was. She doesn't play with it that much and she threw Barbie's plastic cell phone in the trash, because in her words "it looked stupid".
This doll is about average Barbie height (11.5 inches). If you raise the microphone to her mouth she sings songs; if you raise the cell phone, she talks on the phone. As advertised, you can also plug in your mp3 and Babie will move her mouth to the vocals (NOTE: she doesn't sing the songs in her barbie voice).
I think this doll is a great idea. I wish I had one when I was a little kid. Unfortunately, they are a bit expensive, and some of today's kids aren't impressed. Someday this doll will be very collectible. Hopefully my little sister will stop throwing barbies accessories in the trash

Barbie Chat Diva Review, May 11, 2007
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Mattel Barbie Chat Divas Doll (Toy)
My daughter is almost 6 and got this for an early birthday present. It was on for 19.99 Canadian which was great! Barbie sings 3 songs and her face movies. She also says many things on her cel phone. It is neat because my daughter hooked up her stero and Barbie moves her lips to it. My daughter also has the Bratz talking doll and she said she prefers this one because her mouth movies. Barbie also talks appropriately which is neat. Overall I rate it top stars!

very disappointed, January 21, 2010
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Mattel Barbie Chat Divas Doll (Toy)
What a disappointment. We live in America and speak English. From the Amazon ad it looked like the Barbie did too. She was so excited when she opened it. Then when we put the batteries in to find out that the Barbie spoke Spanish, a language she doesn't understand, she put it down and went on to check out her cousins toys. We also have never been able to make the ipod work with it. Nothing like a sad little girl at Christmas. This was her present from her Grandmother that I sent the link to order from. I guess it is either Amazon's fault or the distribution house.

Nice - But Needs More, January 5, 2010
Fun:
This review is from: Mattel Barbie Chat Divas Doll (Toy)
First - there's a 'demo' button you have to turn off to get her to play the song clips and sounds. Perhaps the previous reviewers whose dolls only said two things didn't switch the button.
This was for my 6 year old. I think it might be better for a child older though. The Barbie does indeed sing along to IPODS or other MP3 players. But really, she's just moving her mouth up and down and not really synching with the songs. We put on some Slayer and it was pretty comical to watch.
I think the real problems are that:
a) you really need to have her attached to the stand to do anything interesting. Take her off the stand and she's a vanilla barbie doll with a hole in her back where she plugs into the stand.
b) she only sings clips - and those get old fast. They should have given her full songs to sing. My daughter loves to sing with the Barbie dolls and it was really disappointing at how short the song clips are. And really, only one clip feels like a real song.
c) It is nearly impossible for a 6 year old to clip barbie into her stand. It's even difficult for me to clip her back into the slot. As such, she just stands there on the platform and doesn't get played with off of it.
d) The gimmick of the doll is that she sings along to any song. But seriously, how much interest can you get watching a doll's rubber face moving up and down to songs. I think it's something you watch for a few seconds and then get bored and do something else.
e) The styling of the doll - clothes and such - is rather bland and poor. I guess they wanted to make her more down to Earth by giving her dull blue jeans and a bland white sparkly shirt. Even her hair is just loose and not styled. As such, it's definitely not the most attractive of the Barbies out there.
It's a hard doll to love - really, it's very vanilla and boring and the gimmicks are not very interesting. I can't imagine an 8 year old would be all that interesting watching Barbie's rubbery mouth moving to an IPOD tune any more than my 6 year old.
I think there may be a good concept here - but for the price of the doll, there really needed to be more value than a blandly styled barbie doll with rubber mouth.

Barbie Chat Diva Doll, December 30, 2007
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Mattel Barbie Chat Divas Doll (Toy)
This doll was very hard to find before Christmas this year. I was glad to have found it and my daughter loves it. Her mouth actually moves to her own music and "chats" when you put the phone next to her ear.
