Yahoo Lifestyle'Real life' Barbie Doll Valeria Lukyanova reveals racist streak
Even though she reckons she's an alien, Valeria thinks mixed race children are making the world less beautiful
We've seen the bizarre pictures and stepped away from the weird comments about being an alien, but human Barbie doll Valeria Lukyanova isn't letting up with her bonkers chat.
And her comments have just taken a rather sinister term as the Russian 'lifestyle coach' and spiritualist, has complained that the human race is less beautiful because of inter-racial relationships and children.
In an interview with GQ Magazine, Valeria denied that she embodied the Western/American idea of beauty rather than the more Eastern philosophy she promotes. Instead, she believes that:
"Everyone wants a slim figure. Everyone gets breasts done. Everyone fixes up their face if it's not ideal, you know? Everyone strives for the golden mean. It's global now."

When interviewer Michael Idov suggests that this idea of beauty is very modern, Valeria goes down the downright racist route, saying: "That's because of the race-mixing."
She explains: "For example, a Russian marries an Armenian. They have a kid, a cute girl, but she has her dad's nose. She goes and files it down a little, and it's all good.
"Ethnicities are mixing now, so there's degeneration, and it didn't used to be like that. Remember how many beautiful women there were in the 1950s and 1960s, without any surgery?
"And now, thanks to degeneration, we have this. I love the Nordic image myself. I have white skin; I am a Nordic type—perhaps a little Eastern Baltic, but closer to Nordic."
Valeria also put her unusual appearance down to natural genetics (apart from her breast implants), saying any 'before' pictures we might see of her are Photoshopped and that she inherited her tiny waist from her mother.
We are frankly a bit speechless.
