I feel like, especially in girl media, the "villain" is cooler or more glamorous, ie Sharpay.

[@heavyburdenheart]

Actually, a lot of people don't realize this but BRATZ is highly influenced by urban culture, specifically in black and brown communities. When those dolls came out, I remember thinking how much they looked like my older sisters and cousins. The full lips, the make-up style, the fashion, etc. If you want to see the inspiration from bratz, simply look up the fashion styles from black/brown girlies in the 90s/00s. In fact, if you look up the fashion lines and styles from the clothing brand BABY PHAT, you'll see how inspired they were (which has inspired by a lot of fashion styles in today's day and age. The nails, the lashes, the "brown girl" make up). Edit: Oh if I have to read a "yeah we all knew this!" growing up lmaooo. Guys if YOU knew, that is AMAZING but not everyone knew and it's fine to share information! The comment was for those who DIDN'T know!

[@ElizabethHamilton-ty5li]

Everybody is (rightfully) calling out My Scene and Mattel for making the only Black character out to be villainized, but I’ll actually take it a step further and say (at least in the Go Hollywood movie) Madison’s “friends” were actually more in the wrong than she was. From the very start of the movie, Barbie and the other girls really spew entitlement with very little regard for other people. They barge onto a film set, LIE about being extras, steal props to make themselves costumes, and see nothing wrong with it. They then proceed to cause total chaos on the set because they are “bored”. They tried on costumes, messed with the equipment, and hijacked a golf cart for funsies. During all of this, Madison is literally the only one to bring up the fact that what they are doing is wrong and that they have to have respect for the rules and boundaries in place. Yeah, she’d eventually cave to the pressure, but at least she’s shown caring about the morality of this. I have a fanfic style theory that the production crew saw her trying to stand her ground and wanting to do the responsible thing and that’s why they decided to cast her for the bit part (a role with 5 lines what involves missing the main guy and being treated as a major antagonist, but I digress). At first, she IS so accommodating and kind to her friends. She lets them come watch her get ready, stay in the trailer, and she even brought them their lunch early and sat with them as opposed to with her new costars. If anything, Barbie is the one encouraging her to pursue a relationship with the other actors. Then, her friends literally CRASH Madison’s DATE and bombard Lindsey and Ryan. Madison was RIGHT to be mad at them. This is the first time she’s doing ANYTHING without those friends of hers and it’s not because she thinks she’s better than them, it’s because she was on a DATE and expected and deserved some privacy and space. Then, when Madison attempts to set up some boundaries and not see her friends every second of every day, they all get so butthurt. There is nothing healthy about the friend relationship these girls are in. Barbie can miss me with the audacity to DEMAND Madison cancel her plans to hang out with them unannounced. I just don’t doubt for a millisecond that if Barbie were in Maddison’s shoes, she would be acting just as aloof (if not MORE) than how Madison’s acting. Also, when Madison genuinely tries talking to her friends on the set again, they all brush her off and just act like giant jerks. Madison is legit trying to right her wrongs but the other girls won’t have it. Then, for the cherry on top, the girls express PLEASURE that their friend got hurt!!! I would cut these girls out of my life so fast it’s not even funny.

As a white german kid Madison was my fave, but the racial connotations about her being the messy one went right over my head. It just wasnt something within my scope and not a social issue as commonly discussed if at all during that time (black/african people were practically non-existent in my area until a couple years ago, even!) To me, she looked like Beyonce and her hair and skin tone were so pretty, she instantly become my favorite. Now as an adult she still is my favorite! But now I also see the beauty and awesome outfits in the other girls. These outfits aged so well.

5:41 on the year that change happened, mga was suing mattel for copyright infringement (my scene a rip off of bratz). mattel's lawyers told the company that it was best to keep the barbie brand away from my scene, because if mga would result winners of the lawsuit then mattel could lose all the rights over the barbie brand. therefore they created kennedy as a replacement for barbie, but she was just barbie but with a different name.

[@janedoe4305]

[@lalaxo31]

I love Madison so I’m probably bias, but I find it so weird that she’s always made to be the villain. It’s especially weird being as she’s the only darker skinned character, and during the era my scene was popular it was super common to demonize Black and brown women. The Hollywood movie especially felt icky with the way the white characters feel Madison should be acting more humble, and feel entitled to the same opportunity she received. The whole treatment of Madison just feels micro-aggressive as a girl that looks like and always related to Madison.

[@coatimundi69]

i totally agree!! i also think its interesting that even in their attempt to diversify the barbie brand, they made madison medium skinned, blue-eyed, and light-brown haired (though she most likely lightened it); meanwhile sasha is most commonly depicted as dark skinned with naturally dark hair. like, MyScenes darkest girlie looks like yasmin but they STILL demonize her 💀

[@Misspinknana]

Oh, I agree, especially during the Hollywood movie. In both movies, I saw she was most definitely made the bad guy

[@montyb969]

​@coatimundi69 ACTUALLY, while Sasha's doll is darker skinned she's often depicted in Bratz media (like artwork or moviez) as being lighter skinned with green eyes and straight hair. Both doll lines weren't the best when it came to being diverse, especially with black women.

[@jerramaurice7836]

I own the dark skin doll that was only mentioned once from that line

[@MichaelaAdams-g5b]

MyScene was my life as a kid!!

[@zosephh_]

Thank you for this cause everytime I think of MyScene I think of River and Madison in Jammin in Jamaica but I remember it as them kissing and still felt pure rage so I’m glad you cleared this up 😂

[@daphne6211]

no but we need to talk about how bomb the Myscene goes to Hollywood soundtrack is

[@nothingmancer1607]

You have no idea how much I enjoyed every minute of this video. Man it brings me back to when I was a 10 yo kid watching the Goes to Hollywood DVD on repeat

[@shontesmith2439]

Bratz and My Scene dolls were my favorite. Also the show 6teen kind of reminded me of them.

[@jacobpereda214]

Fun Fact: Madison was inspired by a friend from Lily Martinez the creator of My Scene which is so cute. Also what’s your top 10 favorite my scene dolls that would be a fun video and then maybe a top 10 video of all the My Scene girlies dolls separately like a top 10 of Barbie dolls, a top 10 of Madison dolls, and a top 10 of Chelsea dolls and others like Nolee, Delancey, and Kenzie (excluding Kennedy but maybe a top 10 worst dolls of her Hee Hee!) but I wished we had more dolls of Jai from Jammin’ in Jamaica the darkest skinned My Scene character at least Bratz Felecia had 2 releases in the original run she deserved better and what was your favorite webisodes

[@kimberleywilliams7802]

SAME Jai was so stunning

[@bratzscene3131]

This is not a doll channel 😂

[@jacobpereda214]

@@bratzscene3131I know but top ten lists are fun plus it would be a crime to not let the My Scene girls shine there is not a lot of videos like that for the brand unfortunately

[@jacobpereda214]

@@kimberleywilliams7802I know what was wrong moving her to New York and be apart of the gang she could’ve been a movie exclusive doll like for “Masquerade Madness” and “My Scene, Goes Hollywood” let’s hope they make more dolls of her in the revival and have more heels she can wear

[@bratzscene3131]

@@jacobpereda214 true but she literally doesn't collect dolls so...

I had the Hollywood movie DVD when i was younger and i used to watch it all the time, it's a fond memory. Thanks for making me remember how iconic they were, awesome video!

[@aloneinmidnight]

masquerade madness is LITERALLY the greatest movie of all time like robbed at the academy. this video was very validating

[@gotmimmic]

I LOVE THE FACT THAT THIS IS WHAT WE ARE THINKING ABOUT AND NOT OTHER THINGS

[@cocositter6802]

These girls make me want to grow my hair long, I love cutting it but they’re so stylish I need to be one of them

[@eliser19]

I loved how their hair moves

[@Issssme11333]

The music in Jammin in Jamaica is SOOOO underrated! I still listen to it”Spontaneous Combustion” all the time

[@nataliealfano6566]

I still sing spontaneous combustion in the shower regularly lmao

[@blairg8171]

Radio waaAAvveee

[@tomboyraider1015]

Ikr! Sponganeous Combustion is such a jam!

[@PurseyGirl]

My scene 🥹 so much nostalgia, I remember logging in and playing with my best friend! She these dolls were so pretty and I didn’t realize how messy they were 🥲 Thanks for taking us down memory lane! Subscribed to you twin ❤

[@SaskiaTheBoss]

i literally chose playing myscene over longer time in the pool, after a long day of school in the hot florida sun! that’s how REAL it was, to be present 😂

[@ghouliayells9116]

the reason there’s my scene dolls on amazon for 40$ is because mattel recently renewed the my scene trademark, and released 3 dolls with brand new designs. this MIGHT mean we’re gonna get a revival/reboot.

[@propogandalf]

Probably only if the dolls sell well

[@kailab4717]

The fact I watched all of these back then and was so invested

[@caridadchang7895]

I remember Madison being the only one with something of a career. She manages the band, she appears on a movie, she would have mini episodes about going to work interviews; she was easily the most memorable characyer because she was actually *doing* things If anything it would make sense for this version of Barbie to be jealous that she has no direction in life while Madison seemed to know what she wanted unlike the rest.

[@makaylaflores6215]

This was fun a fun watch, great video 💜

[@canofbeanie]

Omg thank you this means so much to me! 😭💗

[@JesyBear100]

My heart will always be with Bratz. I had one my scene doll and like seven Bratz dolls. I thought they were so cool. Jade was my favorite ❤️

[@renaee_qt]

Also Maddison is always the queen in all the movies sorry

[@canofbeanie]

She was an icon!

[@itstiahra]

I never clicked on a video so fast. Myscene was my EVERYYYYTHING. the movies are probably why I love messy reality tv and media.

[@strawberrydialectics]

dont forget theGeneration Girl barbies that released a couple of years before Bratz. they were probably the precursor since most of the characters had that city college/HS vibe but leaned more towards the 'down to earth casual' aesthetic

[@propogandalf]

OMG you just unlocked a memory for me. I had to google it. I had one of those books, that Barbie and friends also lived in NY

[@venusenvsu]

I had the Nichelle doll from that collection! OMG

[@mollymartin3059]

I lived on that website. So iconic

[@GUAGA0612]

I think Kennedy should comeback but as a villain 😂 it would be fun to watch

[@elleanor]

I remember going to a premiere of My Scene goes Hollywood as a kid. It kind of feels like a fever dream now

[@marygibson152]

I only know myScene thru the online website, I never saw the movies, and I spent AGES playing the mini games and watching the mini episodes. One of the episodes had one of the girls sounding very congested or maybe it was vocal (or audio) fry but it’s been stuck in my head to this day 😂

[@angylora5227]

STOP! I’ve been trying to figure out this movie because I remember seeing it as a kid (came with a doll purchase)! The scene of Barbie seeing River and Madison hugging and running away lives RENT FREE in my mind. Thank you for that.

[@MiriamTV2]

I remember gifting my little cousin the masquerade doll with the butterfly wings, she was over the moon! And the struggle to get that doll out of the package. XD Things sure had changed since I was a kid lol. I didn't get into doll collecting and customizing till much later, but I really want to make over a My Space girl one day, such an interesting face. :D

[@ZelisLovesCookies]

I LOVED all these movies so much, the dramaaaa was feeding me so well, this is exactly what i thought teenage and young adulthood was gonna be ngl

[@mallowie_]

I STAYYYYED on the website! I could have a whole book of printed pages from the makeover

[@kaze.ni_naru]

The myscene computer game was my absolute bread and butter. Had no idea they were Mattel until now xD
