The Spanish Royal Family Watched Barbie On Vacation
The Spanish royal family is enjoying Barbie-mania.
While on their annual summer vacation in Palma de Mallorca, the royals went out to the Cineciutat cinema to watch Greta Gerwig's hit film. King Felipe and Queen Letizia were accompanied by their daughters, Princess Leonor and Princess Sofia, along with Felipe's mom, Queen Sofia.
For the occasion, Princess Leonor was the only one who dressed on-theme, wearing a hot pink Sfera midi dress. That said, Queen Letizia has embraced Barbiecore numerous times, including at the start of their trip when they held their annual photo call at Los Jardines de la Alfabia.
For King Charles's coronation, too, Queen Letizia wore an all-pink outfit by Carolina Herrera—she was ahead of the trend, wearing shades of blush and bubble gum before Barbie was even in theaters.
Since it premiered last month, Barbie has grossed over $1 billion, and that number continues to climb as more audiences, like the Spanish royal family, seek out the film. "As distribution chiefs, we’re not often rendered speechless by a film’s performance, but Barbillion has blown even our most optimistic predictions out of the water," Jeff Goldstein, President of Domestic Distribution, and Andrew Cripps, President of International Distribution, for Warner Bros. Pictures said in a joint statement.
They added, "This is a watershed moment for Barbie, and no one but Greta Gerwig could have brought this cross-generational icon and her world to life in such a funny, emotional and entertaining story, one that is resonating with all four quadrants of moviegoers and literally turning the entire world pink. Long lines and repeat viewings prove that movies are back in a big, big way, and we look forward to seeing just how far Barbie can go in the real world."
