He's not trying to look like Ken. He was on 20/20, and they called him that because of all the plastic surgery procedures he had done and because Valeriya was in the press. Looking like Ken was never his intention.
Quote:
In the beginning [of the piece with 20/20], there was a voiceover that said ‘Meet the Human Ken Doll, whose upper body is filled with silicone implants.’ At the time, Valeriya [Lukyanova, The Real-Life Barbie] had been out about six to eight months in the media, and there was no other mention in the piece about Ken Doll anything. It was meant to be cute and catchy for the show, I don’t believe that 20/20 knew that people would then dub me as this ‘Ken Doll’ person. People wanted to believe that I walked into a doctor’s office with a Ken Doll and was like ‘Make me look like this!’ Things went viral.

He was going for the Anime look.
Quote:
I would say more of my inspiration stems from ‘manga’ or anime. I find that much more appealing in all honestly than a Ken doll.
