Misty Copeland was recently named the the first female African-American principal dancer for the American Ballet Theatre. The talented dancer made her Broadway debut last August in the Broadway revival of ON THE TOWN in role of Ivy.

Today, Copeland becomes the newest star to get her own Barbie, part of Mattel's "You Can Be Anything" campaign. The dancer tells Mashable.com, "It's just so exciting for this generation of kids to be able to see a BARBIE that has muscles and brown skin and a bust and thighs, and for her to be a ballerina."

Designed by Linda Kyaw, the doll becomes available today, May 2, 2016. The official description is as follows: As the first African American female Principal Dancer with the prestigious American Ballet Theatre, Misty Copeland is an inspirational star, paving the way for future dancers all over the world! Her fire red bodysuit, with sunburst orange tulle cutouts, stretches over her perfectly poised body, while layers of red and orange tulle tease a luxurious red tail. A vibrant tulle headpiece tops off her elaborate look, adding drama and flair. The doll features a brand-new ballerina body, with a face sculpted to Misty's likeness!
