Ewa Swoboda is one of nine new Barbie doll models representing top sportswomen, promoting female athletes as role models ahead of the Olympic Games in Paris.
Tennis player Venus Williams, football players Mary Fowler and Christine Sinclair, boxer Estelle Mossely, paratriathlete Susana Rodriguez, swimmer Federica Pellegrini, and gymnasts Rebeca Andrade and Alexa Moreno have all been honored with their own Barbie dolls.
“I am overjoyed that Barbie appreciated my story and honored me alongside eight other amazing female athletes from around the world with the title of Barbie Role Model. I still can’t believe it! I used to play with dolls as a little girl, and now I have my own Barbie doll that looks like me—the only one of its kind in the world,” commented Swoboda on her social media.

Ewa Swoboda pointed out that she cares about expressing herself without needing to constantly look at others.
“I want my story to show that it’s always worth being yourself. You don’t have to meet anyone’s expectations or fit into an imposed framework to achieve your goals. Each of us has the right to express ourselves in our own way. Thank you, Barbie!” she concluded.
