I finally got around to seeing ‘Barbie‘ recently and one of my favorite Barbies ended up being President Barbie, as portrayed winningly by Issa Rae, who never met a character role she couldn’t completely command with her innate charm and talents. She is well-known for her YouTube series ‘Awkward Black Girl’ and writing the best-selling book ‘The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl’. She’s currently making the awards show rounds thank to her performance in ‘American Fiction’. With a full plate of projects ahead of her,she is that ultimate triumvirate of producer, writer and director (and let’s not take actor out of it because she absolutely illuminates whatever screen is lucky enough to have her on it). This marks her debut as Dazzler of the Day here – may it only be the start of future appearances.
