“It was like a dream for me to play Barbie...” - Christy White
Inna Innaki reveals the idea for her new Barbie in the Porn World parody came long before the mainstream film become a global sensation.
Innaki’s SugarBabes.tv rolled out the big-budget production to coincide with the Warners Bros. release of Barbie in July—and at press time in August the movie had become one of the most successful projects in the studio’s six-year history.
“It seemed like a good opportunity since the hype around the original movie was massive but the idea was actually two years old!” Innaki tells AVN. “A Barbie scene is something Christy White wanted to do since she started working with us. We just needed to cast the right Ken for the role!”
The Greece-based producer/performer Innaki says Barbie in the Porn World is SugarBabes’ “most artistic project to date”—it was shot as a full-length movie with a one-hour sex scene.
Former “Greece’s Next Top Model” contestant Christy White—a 2023 AVN nominee for Best New International Starlet—and emerging stud Sakis Dermatis star as Barbie and Ken.
“Christy White and Sakis Dermatis were the obvious candidates within the SugarBabes team because they both look like real life Barbie & Ken dolls,” Inna says. “Apart from that, we invested a lot of resources in this project and we knew they were our safe bet. We knew they would deliver as they always do!”
SugarBabes shot the movie through Ken’s POV, beginning the feature with a voice- over in which Ken admits he fell for Barbie the first moment he saw her.
“He then proceeds to get ready to hit the beach with the other Kens because he heard the Barbie squad would be there and he wanted to make his move,” Inna says. “Little did he know that... let’s say Barbie had other plans...”
So Ken comes up with an idea to get her attention, explaining his thought process to viewers along the way.
“I don’t want to say too much, but let’s just say there’s a lot of unexpected plot twists involving all the Barbies & Kens!” Inna continues. “After many ups and downs he finally takes Barbie on an amazing date and they fall for each other.
“Later that night all the Barbies & Kens attend a party where they put on an amazing dance show and hook up with each other in various ways! After the party is over our protagonists leave the party together to—and I quote one of Ken’s lines— go fuck their brains out!”
SugarBabes completed the principal photography in various locations in Athens, Greece, giving creative control and the directorial reins to Christy and Sakis—whom Innaki says are two of the most popular stars in Greece.
“Apart from starring in the movie, they also directed the whole project and wrote the script themselves,” Inna says. “Not only that, Sakis also edited the movie himself! “They were both so excited and invested in the whole project that we as a company
wanted them to express themselves in the most authentic way possible.
