Popstars Kylie Minogue and Shania Twain have also been honoured, Kylie's Barbie wearing a stunning red outfit and long red cape as a nod to her recent 'Padam Padam' era.
Shania's Barbie lookalike is fitted out in a black top hat and outfit, reminiscent of her 1999 Man! I Feel Like A Woman! music video.
The one-of-a-kind dolls were created especially for the role models and will not be sold in stores, but instead are given to each woman for the work they've done.
The release of this year's Role Model Barbie line also coincides with Barbie's 65th birthday, on March 9.
