Barbara "Barbie" Blank is currently a model working for World Wrestling Entertainment on the ECW brand under the stage name Kelly Kelly.

World Wrestling Entertainment

OVW

She was once a full-time bikini model for Venus Swimwear until she signed a developmental contract with WWE in May 2006. John Laurinaitis saw her in a bikini catalog and contacted her modeling agency about hiring her and Victoria Crawford. Barbie signed with WWE after her agent advised her to, and reported to Ohio Valley Wrestling for training. Even though Barbie was called to the main roster she flies back to Louisville, Kentucky to OVW once a week and works at house shows as a ring announcer and referee along with Victoria Crawford. At the June 24, 2006 OVW TV Tapings, Barbie made her OVW debut as Kelly and participated in a bikini contest. The other participants were Roni Jonah, Sosay, ODB (Jessica Kresa), and Daisy Mae (Jennifer Thomas). Nobody won the contest because ODB attacked all the divas.

ECW

Barbie debuted as Kelly (later Kelly Kelly) on the June 13, 2006 edition of ECW. She said that she was an exhibitionist and did a striptease for the crowd. The following week she did another striptease to the crowd but never finished because Mike Knox came out, covered her up with a towel and then took her backstage. This has since become the pattern of Kelly's routine – she has repeatedly danced or given a striptease for the live audience, but is always interrupted by Knox. RAW's Candice Michelle even appeared with Kelly Kelly dancing together until Mike Knox once again, prevented Kelly to expose herself.
