Brazilian Human Ken Doll,Indeed, even before he discovered worldwide popularity as a human Ken doll, Celso Santebañes' physical appearance had made him a star in his local Brazil.
As a kid, Celso Borges Pereira (the name he was conceived with) was feted for his excellence, his ideal components declining to blur with every year that passed. At 15, he began entering — and winning — demonstrating rivalries, inevitably getting the attention of a Sao Paulo television show ability scout.
The show gave him a passage into the universe of VIP and inside of a year he'd taken up acting and changed his surname to Santabañes after his most loved Mexican sitcom character.It was around this time that individuals began letting him know he resembled a Ken doll. It happened so frequently that Santabañes got to be focused on the toy, lining his room racks with many the plastic puppets. He later clarified that his family's underwriting of the odd examination motivated him to reproduce himself as a "human manikin".
"Fixated on the flawlessness of physical magnificence, Santebañes began to distinguish components of his face that didn't resemble the Mattel brand doll," the Latin Times said.
"(He accepted) his nose was too wide and his philtrum — the wrinkle of the upper lip — just excessively normal."
Different plastic surgeries and an expected $60,000 later, Santebañes had settled his "defects" and joined a developing number of grown-up men yearning to look like Ken.
A little while later he was energizing to $20,000 for open appearances, notwithstanding propelling a line of Celso dolls in Los Angeles, much to the jealousy of opponents Justin Jedlica (otherwise known as Ken 1) and Rodrigo Alves (otherwise known as Ken 3).
"He stared off into space about making a film with Valeria Lukyanova, the Ukrainian 'Human Barbie'," the Latin Times said.
However, toward the end of last year, Santebañes got a rude awakening as an unforeseen malignancy conclusion. An uncommon and forceful type of leukemia had been distinguished amid blood tests in planning for surgery to repair a defective filler in one of Santebañes' legs.
He was just 20 and abruptly he was dying.The effect was quick.
"Today, I begin another cycle in my life," he told journalists in January.
"I am beginning chemotherapy and I concede I'm a bit worried about some symptoms, similar to male pattern baldness, queasiness, my body's dismissal (of chemotherapy), in addition to other things, yet I am no more concerned with the issue of feel. For me that doesn't make a difference. What is important is my wellbeing now, and I will battle for it.
"
The Times saw: "In his five-month fight with malignancy, Santebañes promptly needed to face his own particular physical disintegration, the fixing of what had turn into his own character and national picture. It began with dim spots on his skin and draining gums, side effects of the blood growth. Once in treatment, his hair dropped out. He'd later be restricted to a wheelchair, a gaunt pale shadow.
On May 18, Santebañes, wearing a cap and overwhelming cosmetics and near to death, thought about his unfortunate mission for physical flawlessness.
"Everybody who needs to be beautiful, who needs to be flawless, to point out themselves, to supplant this absence of … of adoration, maybe," he told Hoje Em Dia.
In the event that he survived, he said, he wouldn't do any more surgeries: "I wouldn't do any more, what's done will be finished."
Santebañes passed on last Thursday in the wake of contracting pneumonia. He was covered in his local Sao Paulo at the weekend.
His dad, Celia Borges, told correspondents: "When he was beginning to satisfy his fantasies, he found his sickness and his fantasies were intruded. He had arranges howe
