There's a new Ken look-alike on the scene and he's Brazilian model Celso Santebanes. It looks like Justin Jedica and Rodrigo Alves have got themselves some competition. The 20-year-old has had more plastic surgery than he could even count and he looks even creepier than the other two. I'm officially freaked out!

Santebanes looks exactly like this Ken doll I used to have when I was younger. Remember Totally Hair Ken? He has the same facial features, the same perfectly symmetrical eyebrows and even the same head of shiny brown hair. But their striking resemblance isn't mere coincidence, Santebanes has spent around $50,000 in efforts to look just like a Human Ken. Can we say crazy?
So far he's had around four operations just on his nose, chin and jaw. He's even had silicone implants placed in his chest. Santebanes claims that growing up he was so obsessed with Ken, he had shelves full of the dolls. But what's even more disturbing is that Santebanes is still not satisfied with his look. "I think I'm 90 per cent of what I want to be. I intend to do more surgeries, but do not know what. For now my investment is being in the gym, for Ken is strong and I am skinny."
According to celebrity dermatologist Ligi Kogos, this dude's issues are far beyond just an obsession with beauty. "While he wanted to be a real boy, Celso wants to be a puppet, leaving behind the reality of what is defective and approaching an ideal of perfection." Wow, that's deep! This guy definitely has problems and it makes me sad that he feels this need to make himself look like a perfect Ken doll. Did I mention he's looking for a Barbie to play with too? On his Facebook site he wrote, "The human Ken bachelor is looking for his Barbie. Who wants to be my girlfriend? After all no one is happy alone." Maybe someone should introduce him to Valeria Lukyanova? I'm almost certain they'd hit it off just fine!
