In the video, Bailey goes on to say, “I am literally choking up because this means so much to me. And to have one that looks like me and that’s my favorite Disney character is very surreal. And look! She even has my mole – see!”
“I’m just stunned,” Bailey said. “I don’t quite know what to do with it, but I’m gonna steal this and take it home and hide it forever.” Bailey was overcome with emotion and excitement, seeing herself as a toy. The new Little Mermaid doll is from Mattel and will hit the shelves this spring in anticipation of the upcoming film, which will hit theaters on May 26, 2023.
