The 75-year-old music icon took to Instagram on Oct. 2 to share that Mattel has made a Barbie in her likeness, CNN reports.
The doll, drawing inspiration from the
singer's 'Rumours' era, is part of the toy manufacturer's Barbie Music Series.
We wanted to wish Stevie Nicks
a happy 75th birthday in the
best way possible. So we created a
Barbie doll to capture her iconic style, Mattel, via statement.
Stevie Nicks actually loaned us her signature black dress and boots for us to use as reference for the doll, Designer Bill Greening, via statement.
The official Barbie Instagram
page also issued a statement.
Soulful stage presence. Spellbinding style. With a career that’s touched generations of music lovers, @StevieNicks is the latest legend to be celebrated as part of the Barbie Music Series, bringing her inspiring story and chart-topping career to artists and audiences of all ages. #Barbie #YouCanBeAnything, Barbie, via Instagram.
Nicks called her Stevie Barbie "so pretty
and so soulful and so real," CNN reports.
When Mattel came to me asking if I would like to have a Barbie made in the ‘Rumours’ cover style I was very overwhelmed. Of course I questioned ‘would she look like me? Would she have my spirit? Would she have my heart…’, Stevie Nicks, via Instagram.
When I look at her, I see my 27 year old self~ All the memories of walking out on a big stage in that black outfit and those gorgeous boots come rushing back~ and then I see myself now in her face. , Stevie Nicks, via Instagram.

What we have been through since 1975~
the battles we have fought, the lessons
we have learned~ together. I am her and
she is me. She absolutely has my heart, Stevie Nicks, via Instagram.
