Real life Barbie wants 'army of clones'

A mum who has shelled out thousands so she can look like Barbie has revealed she wants to make an army of clones.

Marcela Iglesias, who lives in Los Angeles, US, has spent £60,000 on cosmetic procedures to look like the popular toy doll but claims she has never had plastic surgery.

The mum-of-one has recently learned of human cloning and claims that not only are scientists currently working on this but by cloning herself, she could potentially help save lives by donating organs.

Marcela stumbled across the topic through Professor Nakauchi from the University of Tokyo, who has been conducting research into growing organs based on a patient’s stem cells.

She believes that cloning is already happening but that the general public just doesn't know about it yet.
