Along with Barbie, the series will star seven Kidz Bop kids: Alana, 10; Isaiah, 12; Jacob, 13; Julianna, 14; Layla, 11; Liv, 12; and Stephen, 11.

Barbie is no stranger to collaborations. The doll line has donned fashion from designers including Christian Dior, Oscar de la Renta and more. Dolls have also been inspired by icons like Diana Ross, Sally Ride and Ashley Graham. The Barbie brand has also been licensed into apparel, cosmetics, books, games and more.

Since its 2001 debut, Kidz Bop has sold more than 20 million albums and generated more than 3 billion streams. The kids’ music brand has been named Billboard’s No. 1 kids’ artist for nine consecutive years. They also boast some A-list alumni including Becky G and Zendaya.
