Stevie Nicks just got the Barbie treatment. Speaking to TODAY.com, the Fleetwood Mac singer-songwriter got philosophical about the act of becoming Barbie.

"The spirit of Stevie Barbie and the spirit of me, blended together in this little person and it just emanates from her," she said.

Stevie the Barbie wears the outfit Stevie the Person wore on the cover of the album "Rumours." Nicks said, “She’s the ‘Rumours’ me, when I was 29 years old. But she’s also me now. It sounds impossible, but it’s not impossible somehow."

She's far from the only celebrity whose likeness has been rendered in doll form. Since Barbie first came out in 1959, the doll has gone through multiple iterations.

Below, find a few other stars and their Barbie counterparts, including some of TODAY's own.
