Many girls in childhood dream of being like Barbie dolls: an ideal figure, long hair and, of course, a pink convertible under the window. Most people's desires change over time, but some girls still cannot part with the ideal. Black model Duckie Thot- one of them. The other day she posted a photo on Instagram, and now hundreds of her subscribers are arguing whether the Barbie in front of them is plastic...


Duckie Thot Originally from South Sudan, she has a gorgeous dark complexion, long hair and a charming snow-white smile. The ideal appearance was the reason for a heated discussion: some claimed that in front of them was a photograph of a Barbie doll, others insisted that the photo was of Ducky. However, both of them agreed with the idea that the model should think about releasing a designer doll. In the comments, Ducky agreed that this was a really great idea.




Duckie Thoth gained popularity by taking part in Australia's Next Top Model competition. At one stage of the show, the girl faced terrible unprofessionalism on the part of the stylist, who could not braid her beautiful hair. Then, on stage, she felt very uncomfortable, and after sharing what was happening on Instagram, she received a lot of feedback from people ready to support her. In total, the post received 18 thousand “likes”, and Ducky believed in herself again.


In an interview, Ducky admitted: “We are black women, but no one taught us how to take care of our hair, we were only taught to hide it. I think hair care companies, the media and stylists are to blame for this. They made no effort to make the natural image of dark-skinned women attractive. I believe the industry should finally invest in us."

Charming model Ducky Thot.

When you first look at Ducky Thot, you'll also probably think that this is a life-size Barbie doll. The smooth skin of the Australian model, originally from South Sudan, silky hair and graceful figure created a sensation in Instagram, but her road to fame was very thorny.

In 2013, when Nyadak (Ducky) Toth was 17 years old, she was Australia's up-and-coming top model. Ducky later admitted what she had to go through. On social networks, the naturalness of her hair, skin color and even weight were constantly questioned, and former American model Winnie Harlow called her a “cauliflower”. “For a 17-year-old girl, I took a lot of hits, and I honestly didn’t understand why or why,” Ducky says in an emotional 2016 interview with Teen Vogue. Ducky had a friend and mentor, Charlotte Dawson, a TV presenter on Australia's Next Top Model, who also experienced ridicule and bullying. And although Dawson committed suicide in 2014, Ducky still remembers all of her life advice: “She was my driving force after the show.”

Ducky took a break from her career and disappeared for two years to recuperate, and now she's back and making a splash. She's now 21 years old, has 300,000 followers on Instagram, and is finding success on her own terms. And she absolutely graciously accepted the nickname “Barbie” given to her by her fans.

Meet Duckie Thot, a 21-year-old Australian model originally from South Sudan who people often confuse with Barbie.

In 2013, she was a participant in the reality show Australia's Next Top Model.


Although she was only 17 years old at the time, she faced constant ridicule and bullying for her natural hair and skin color in Twitter


After being called names and even being called "cauliflower", Ducky disappeared from view for two years.


She returned to the modeling business with a bang and spoke candidly about the painful experience she had.


“My bones were washed absolutely everywhere and on every corner,” Ducky said in an interview with the magazineTeen Vogueat the end of 2016


“When I started listening to my own voice, everything slowly began to fall into place.”


This extraordinary beauty moved from Australia to New York and feels better than ever
