Lindsay Lohan Barbie Doll — Plastic Fantastic

Pretty awesome achievement, I'd say.

I mean, she's only 18, barely legal, and she's now an American Icon, if not an Idol.

I don't see any bookofjoe-type Ken doll out there, after all.

But hey, no sour grapes here.

I'll just enjoy the official roll-out of Ms. Plastic Fantastic this coming Sunday at the annual American International Toy Fair in New York.

Lindsay Barbie is dressed to the nines, in full red-carpet splendor, what with an elegant beige dress and a (faux — doh!)–fur–trimmed coat.

The doll comes complete with a director's chair — 'cause you know it's only a matter of time till she decides to direct her own film — and her very own velvet rope, to keep [the] hoi polloi at a safe remove.

You'll be able to buy one come June for $30.

Her new movie, "Herbie: Fully Loaded," an update of the Disney story about a VW Beetle, just wrapped.

I guarantee you Paris Hilton's knickers (if she wore any, the antithesis of which has been previously demonstrated in exquisite detail elsewhere — hey, sillyhead, this is Version 2.0, remember?) are in a twist at this latest Lindsay news.

Paris is enraged — some say burning — at the audacity of Playboy magazine taking a picture of her — without even asking, the nerve! — and slapping it on the cover of its latest issue.

Next thing you know, some loser ex-boyfriend of hers will surface with a videotape of the two of them frolicking.

You know how something like that can derail a promising career.
