Gunnar Montana Is the Leather Daddy Barbie We've Always Wanted

In case you didn't know today (March 9) is National Barbie Day!

To pay homage to the blonde, plastic icon, Philadelphia-based choreographer and performance artist Gunnar Montana collaborated with fellow Philly artist and photographer Joe Mac to create a project that celebrates both Mattel's iconic toy brand and the leather community -- and the result was gay AF.

Sharing the results on Instagram, the fruit of Montana and Mac's labor was none other than a life-sized art installation entitled "Super Gay Barbie: Leather Daddy Edition," which featured Montana channeling his inner doll, donning a harness and heels in all of his Leather Daddy glory.

Of course, Leather Daddy Barbie is nothing without his accessories to play with, so Montana is also standing in a big toy box that features other accoutrements that include a whip, hankies of assorted colors, a pup mask, a pink motorcycle, and a leather vest (amongst other naughty things).

"You can be anything," Montana captioned the post of the life-sized art installation, referencing the doll brand's popular slogan.

This isn't the first time the two have created Barbie-themed greatness together, though! For last year's Barbie Day celebration, the two released their first "Super Gay Barbie," which featured Montana standing in a toy box with accessories that included a douche, weights, a cell phone preloaded with Grindr on it, and a kimono.

While this Montana and Mac's collab was just an art project, and not an actual Barbie doll for sale (*cries deeply*), it's not a far-fetched idea to think it can be!

Just last year, Mattel sold a limited-edition Mermaid Ken doll that wore a seashell harness (yes, a seashell harness) after customers voted for the design in the 2020 Barbie Signature Doll Design Showdown, an online poll where the long-running and inclusive doll brand's biggest fans got to vote to choose the next doll in Barbie's Signature line collection.

Considering how the Mermaid Ken doll is now completely sold-out (he went for $110 a pop for members of the Barbie Signature club), perhaps Mattel should give the gays what they and make Montana's Leather Daddy Barbie a reality! We know he would sell out like hot cakes!
