“My nickname used to be Life-sized Barbie Doll,” said Sanders. “I got [Golden Barbie] from my teachers, though. My sister and I tried to create a name for social media.

The 31-year-old has amassed 5.4 million followers on her Instagram alone and was recently tapped to be apart of Victoria Secret’s newest campaign, #SoObsessed.
