Yes, there's a Filipino-American actress starring in the "Barbie" movie!

We’re officially living in a Barbie world! The iconic doll’s live-action film made its world premiere in Hollywood last July 9, with its cast members stepping out of their boxes and onto the red carpet.

Among them was Ana Cruz Kayne, a Filipino-American actress who plays a Supreme Court Justice in the movie. To the big event, she paid tribute to her Pinay roots in a pastel pink terno dress by Dennis Lustico.

In his caption, Dennis details that Ana specifically requested to wear a heritage-inspired garment to the premiere. Styled by Nikko Panti, Ana was every bit a Filipina Barbie in the intricately-beaded Balintawak top. Coupled with it was a fringe skirt from Hervé Léger, Stuart Weitzman heels, and Angara Jewelry rings.
