I don't know what I love more: Barbie's existential dread or Ken's song about mid life crisis.
They truly are brilliant!
Perfect 😂.
No one talks about the 10 years pre menopause. The absolute worst! Stay strong ladies. Once you hit 60 all gets better except then you can’t see up close, or in the dark, and you forget where your keys are.
Thank you for saying this. I'm 54 and perimenopause has knocked me off a cliff.
Too late… I’m wearing progressives in my mid 40s.
I'm 58 and I resemble this remark.
You described me and I'm 51...
I am 48 and I still have that long to go??? My husband will never survive until then!!
Grey Fragility should be the name of Ken's garage band.
"I'm not having mood swings, YOU'RE having mood swings!" 😂😅
YEAH KEN
Well…YEAH!!
45 over here, going through it too. Never seen a video more relatable…if men went through Peri, there would have already been a pill to fix it! Pimples and wrinkles and grey hair and an oily scalp, hot flashes and irregular periods…sigh…it’s like puberty all over again …
So you are saying there are no female chemical engineers? And economic forces do not recognize a demand sufficient enough to fund research into such a product? No. The more you mess with hormones the more likely to get cancer. Angelina Jolie preventative mastectomy to avoid cancer.
Puberty again! Yes, I feel the same way.
I'm 48 and found a pill to fix my perimenopause symptoms. Try taking extra folate. It worked wonders for me. I found relief with 2mg of methylfolate a day.
Not to mention the unpredictably irregular cycle, with the buckets of liquid pouring out of you that no period products can contain.
Yikes, the irregular periods you all are describing in this thread make me glad I had to have a hysterectomy a few years ago! But I kept my ovaries, so I still get to go through all the hormonal stuff, yay! 😂
Love Kim as Barbie "drinking" wine - how you did that with a straight face I will never know...oh wait, it's a plastic face. 😂
Oh, you two are such a hoot! Nothing like a morning laugh to get the day started,eh?
Ken's midlife crisis ballad had me going! "My hormones are coming to an end" hahaha 😆 we're all headed there.
Okay, but, Barbie-Kim (AND Ken-Penn) are BOTH SUPER ADORABLE! ❤

Nice! lol
The blank stare with wine was everything.
Please do more peri content! You could be a part of changing the conversation! (Or lack thereof)
Love this!!
No one talks about the whole “perimenopause process” and how long this shit lasts! The hot flashes, night sweats, hair loss, weight gain, hormone changes. Women think pregnancy changes your body…..ha, just wait for it! We should have been warned, lol. I would have apologized to my Mom a long time ago, for not understanding all that she was going through. She has passed away now and I don’t even get to swap perimenopause stories with her. Thank you for this video and for making me laugh ❤.
When I complained to my mom about all the bad, violent symptoms of menopause, she said she didn’t have any symptoms. My dad strongly disagreed!😂
I think that the irony is that penn is already so close to a human ken, how much pretending does he need to do?
This should be a series, of Barbie and Ken saying what they REALLY want to say. Add all of the other barbie versions and it would be hilarious!
Love it! No one warned me either about this HORROR-MONE thing either when I came out of the box, Barbie!! I'm 48 and it's not looking pink and pretty now!!!😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥Comiserating here!!
My Ken is wishing I would crawl back into my box!!!
You hit perimenopauase on the head. I'm in the same boat. Love it Kim!!!!!😂😂😂
Welcome to the club
I was in denial over perimenopause. I really wanted another baby.....😕
The sense of humor you both have is wonderfully hilarious! I love Kim’s outfit, and Penn’s song is amazing. 🤣
I saw the movie two days ago.
Excellent parody Ken song by Penn to sing..
Excellent parody character for Kim to portray.
Excellent costuming for both Holderness parents. As much as I despise Birkenstock shoes, the cosplay for this video is a rare occasion that I cannot complain about that footwear. 😆
💗💗💗👏👏👏💯💯💯
This is hilarious!!! I love the drinking Barbie & the singing Ken!!! This was just what I needed this morning!! 😂😂
The drinking thing in perimenopause didn't bother me til the hot flashes kicked in! One glass of wine...sweat city! I'm coming out of it now...I think
Oh, YES! You covered the tough realities of peri- menopause brilliantly! Thank you! ❤
I love these people. I wake up feeling tired and somewhat anxious and this is making it a bit better already! You're amazing
Haha, I love Kim cosplaying as Barbie in that blonde wig. I'd love to see this movie! 💞😍
We loved it!
The movie was terrible. Don't waste your money.
I enjoyed the movie 😍 it wasn't what I expected at all but it wasn't terrible terrible
Barbie and Ken should of ended up together but oh well
Kim is a better looking Barbie than the one in the movie.
@@lenaklassen2567 Spoiler alert! 😢😂
Penn & Kim, y’all are great at portraying Ken & Barbie. Keep the videos coming.
Barbie is 64 and on osteoporosis medications, has three grandkids, and having an affair with GI Joe after reconnecting at a class reunion. Ken is wearing socks with his sandals and gardening in his pleated shorts.
This is hilarious. What a fantastic way to start a beautiful Friday morning. Thank you for the work you do to make us all laugh.
This is actually super helpful. I didn't know anxiety was a symptom of perimenopause. This explains a lot.
Y'all are so cute. Always a good laugh to relieve stress. Keep the videos coming.
Love the Barbie splits and lack of filter. Yep. More true than truth. 😂 And poor Ken needing a garage band because his hormones are coming to an end.
The spilling mocktail is the best part!😂
1:08 Kim's really committing to the bit, spilling precious precious wine all over the place
Hmm, wine, apple juice, weak tea ?? Either way, sticky mess.
you must have missed when she said she's on mocktails now, so I'm guessing this is one of the gross ones from their taste test video
Omg! Your videos are the only ones that literally make me laugh out loud! Barbie drinking with her mouth closed 😂 idk how many times I tried to give various dolls a drink like that as a kid😅 and Ken’s song 😂 great job guys ❤
Lol!!! You eating and winking took me out! Lol😂😂😂😂
Just got my numbers back - 52.5 !!!!!!!!! I am officially POSTmenopausal....Now I need to know when the mood swings are gonna stop cause dang......... And can I just say how much I hate the turkey neck? But no more pads and tampons for 10 days and cramps and backaches and headaches and nausea and mood swings that sent me to the hospital and my breasts feeling like they were sent through a mangle (5 heads of cabbage a month) and the bloating and the ruined sheets, jammies, clothes, everything, so yeah that's totally a bright a spot! PMDD is not for the faint of heart I also hope the acne stops soon.......
It’ll get a whole lot worse! Once it stopped completely for me my beautiful long hair fell out, my 34DDD breast turned into smaller punching bags and I aged 10 years! Sucks!!! 😔
@@stormygail1 my hair fell out after having gastric bypass surgery in 2014, I've been taking mega doses of hair skin and nails with biotin and that has been a life saver! Even my eyebrows and lashes fell out! I was a 36B until I had my son and my girls blew up to 50F -I had polyhydramnios and it kicked my arse and nearly killed the two of us. I'm now down to a 42DDD and they did pancake a bit lol. One good thing with my hair growing back, is it's now VERY SUPER coily curly! I'd been getting perms since I was 8 years old to have curly hair. I stopped when I got pregnant in 2000, but once my hair started growing back in it's now so curly I'm having to learn how to care for curly hair!
My skin is super soft now and not nearly as oily as it has always been.
I did stumble across an amazing guy here on youtube with regards to vitamins and what are best to take and when and with what foods or the time of day- Dr. Eric Berg.
This was a great way to bring up the topic (loved the wine dribbling down "Barbie's" front).
I remember when I was in my 40s and Perimenopause hit. The thought "WOWWW! I probably shouldn't have said thaaaat outloud. . ." went through my mind a lot.
I never thought about "filter loss" as part of it, but I did start telling friends and family to "bite me" around the time the other symptoms set in... 🤔
I recall telling off a coworker when I lost my filter. (What I said was true, but I should not have said it.) Since menopause, I'm too old to bother about what others think of me...most likely they don't think of me at all.
P
🙋♀️ 49! With a 12 year old daugher to keep up with! Her puberty & my perimenopause ... my poor HUSBAND! 😂😂😂😂
I feel so triggered by this :D It's like Midlife Barbie has been spying on me!!! This is the only Barbie content I plan to watch this summer, LOL
Okay, you both nailed that! Love the script! Hilarious!
Perimenopausal Barbie is my hero! I need to post menopausal Barbie… Lol! Kim, you’re hilarious 😂😂😂💛💛💛
She's the hero that we need for this time of life.
Kim, you are way too good at playing Barbie. :D And Penn is hilarious!
Haha. Good for you Kim, not licking the wine off your chin. 🎉
You guys are awesome! You make me laugh every day. Thank you for everything you guys do! I love this and can't wait to see Kim starring in Barbie 2!
You're the best!
You guys are funny , love watching these shorts..... go Barbie & Ken life will never be the same!!
This was hilarious!!! I'm in this phase of life right now, so I appreciated the giggle because it's hard to find the humour sometimes😂But important to try&y'all help us do that! You are very appreciated ❤❤❤
That was amazing!!! Kim makes a great barbie!
And Penn is totally midlife Ken! 😂 You couldn’t find a more perfect couple for this 😂
OMG Penn's Kenergy is epic! LOVE his outfit! So spot on. Please go see the movie in thise outfits! 😂😍
This totally reminded me of that movie "Stepford Wives" lol especially that wine drinking.
Oh my gosh, this is spot on! I began peri at 43 with outrageous hot flushes. And it was down hill after that! Now 58 and the flushes have shared somewhat, but I lost my filter years ago and hot topics in the news can really get me going! Being a women is a rollercoaster ride from the age of puberty. But I do have some.... perhaps a smidgen... of sympathy for Ken!
I love when you're trying to eat the salad. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The fact that you got worried that your floor was wet and it needed to be cleaned was hilarious.
This hit home and made me laugh. I needed this. Thank you!
🙋🏻♀️ I can relate to PM. You and Penn are HILAROUS! 😂 please keep sharing your humor and gifts.
Kimbarbie drinking her mocktail
...... LMAO!😂
The Farrah Fawcett wig is EVERYTHING! 😂😂😂
OMG... you two goofballs....I love it. Tears flowing from laughing. Kim, you play an excellent plastic doll, esp. with your smooth skin and curvy body. I absolutely love you guys and never miss a video of yours!💌🏩
This is right where I'm at right now. Absolutely brilliant 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The wine just pouring outside your mouth sent me 😂
Well, I guess you have to make an Oppenheimer themed video now 😊
Yessss 😂🎉🎉
Ok i im laughing so hard, my asthma kicked in 😂😂😂😂 this isnt fair cause i lack the parts needed !! Wait how do i have kids?! This is brilliant
😂 BRILLIANT & HILARIOUS! (And SO true...)
Went thru early menopause in my thirties and I swear I thought something was seriously wrong with me when it first started. So glad I had a lady dr that was very understanding and helpful. None of my friends were interested in hearing about. No one thought it was really that bad until they were knee deep in it themselves. Most people don't want to hear about until it happens to them. At least that's my experience.
Why have I NEVER seen y’all before?! Y’all are just too FANTASTIC!! 🤣😂😁♥️♥️
The wine drinking killed me! This was the BEST
Shared this in a menopause Facebook group. It's hilarious
Hilarious. Thank you and God bless you.
Yeah! Nobody warned me about perimenopause either! Thanks for talking about it and bringing the issues to light in a humorous way! Feeling your pain!
You guys are the absolute best! Your videos always brighten my day!
0:17 Those splits, though. Barbie Kim’s grimace 😬
I laughed so hard at Kim "drinking" her wine...
Thank you! Been there, and Kim's take on Barbie has me laughing myself silly.
Bahaha, as someone who has moved into full blown menopause I found this highly relatable and freakin' hilarious.
Omg yes, me, too😂
I'm 60. I was done ten years ago. Life is so much better. I wouldn't go back to 45-50 if you paid me!
@@seameology that's good to know, mine started at 50, and still intense at 54.
Brilliant!!! And unfortunately, so relatable. Remember, you are KENough! Blessings - Judith 🎵🎭
Kim/Barbie drinking the wine made me laugh hysterically!!!
You guys should make a whole Barbie and Ken series! Both Barbie's mid life crisis and Ken's song were hilarious!
You guys dedication on your content creation are amazing ❤
it's only now that I realized that you both would fit perfectly in the Barbie movie as the Barbie and Ken versions 😂🥰. Barbie and Ken Amazing Race edition! 😉🏆
They missed a trick there.
I'm outside at night I better go in before I scare the neighbors with my loud laughter
The wig alone!😆
Thank you Kim, you guys are spot on again!
I'm looking for Elder Barbie. Haven't seen that one yet. We have doctor Barbie and Astronaut Barbie and all the Barbies but not Elder Barbie. Mattel really needs to get on that.
❤️Love you two!Thanks for the smile❤️
This. Was. Brilliant! ❤👏👏👏❤❤❤
The Ken song 😂 😂 😂
Hahaha the eating and drinking were hilarious, thanks! 😂
And also thanks for the perimenopause heads up...I think...
This is just THE BEST!!! Love y'all always but this really hit me in the funny bone today.. Thank you. Still laughing
Thanks for the love!
Welcome to late 40's y'all I'm here with you, going through it myself YAY!! I love this video.. lol Thank you!
I spent the weekend with "I'm just Ken" stuck in my head.
The throwing out your back when you sneeze sounds funny until you do it. I have hEDS (genetic, connective tissue disease) and yesterday I sneezed and dislocated a collarbone, several ribs, and an SI joint--in case folks don't know what the SI joint is, it's the sacroiliac, where you spine and your pelvis connect. So, yeah, I dislocated my pelvis from my spine because I sneezed.
The stiff joints killed me hehehe
OMG! 😂😂😂😂😂 Kim is hilarious!!! ❤❤❤
So hilarious and true! I died when she took the wig off in bed. 😂😂😂
When ken chimed in 😅😅😅
Best part of my morning….deadpan during the wine pour!
Incredibly unhinged…love it!!!
Oh, I think my neighbors heard me laughing with this video!
This was great. Thanks.
This is way more relatable than I expected...
19 years of hot flashes... and counting. Good times 😂 ...
Hilariously and well done as always!! 😂
Ahhhh, I love this video. It's funny and so true. I don't think Barbie ever turned 30. I had terrible perimenopausal symptoms that came from all different directions! Since I've hit menopause things have finally settled down. It's great to know I wasn't the only one dealing with the crazy symtoms!
Laughed so hard I needed poise. Fan on high in January in WI? That's me. My Gran called it her own personal summer 😂
