    I’ve heard both of those songs,Ellaine. I sort of like Coldplay, though not as much as I like Queen. Queen is awesome!

  2. AG&FAN says:

    Which type of doll is bettter-PM or AM?
    And does anyone know why Pleasant Rowland chose
    white skin as a first skin tone for 3 girls?

  3. Cassandra says:

    i just found out they retired a bunch of JLY outfits :(

  4. Cassandra says:

    but the last time they did that they released a bunch of really cool outfits-so my fingers are crossed :)

  5. pioneerfan04 says:

    Does anyone like the song, “Just Say Yes” by Snowpatrol? It’s one of my favorite songs, besides anything by U2 or Taylor Swift.

  6. Lily says:

    Neither doll is particularly “better”. It’s all personal preference. I’ve sold many of both types of dolls and the PM ones just aren’t as appealing to me because they’re old, have faded face paint, etc.

    The first three were for when the company was just starting out. They needed big sellers to get the company going. In all honesty, white historical dolls sell better. It wasn’t for awhile before they introduced Kaya, Josefina, and Addy, who have not sold as well.

  7. Julie says:

    OMg.. Last night, I was at my Ma’s Boyfriends house.. He said we were going to get a skii jacket. So I got in the Car with him and my mom, and I got Curious.. An HOUR drive just for a SKII jacket?!? He pulled over, I looked up from my phone, and WE WERE AT THE AMERICAN GIRL PLACE! :D
    I was SO excited. He did this because he felt bad about what my Dad did to my sis and I.
    (I GOT LANIE MARIE HOLLAND! I love her SO much!!!)
    My Moms Boyfriend= HERO! :)
    Don’t you think he is SUPER DUPER nice?

  8. Lily says:

    Julie, maybe you should’ve started from the beginning when you said you wanted to hit your dad! This version makes much more sense. I hate it when parents break their word . . . repeatedly. But that’s great that your mom has such a nice boyfriend! Do you think they’ll get married? ;)

  9. Ava says:

    Oh, now I understand, Julie. At first I thought this was about a doll, but now I understand that it’s about being with your dad, sorry. Your mom’s boyfriend sounds really sweet, though.

  10. Lena says:

    Thanks for the explanation Julie. I still day you should talk to your dad about how he hurt you when he broke his promises, and ask why. Be mature about it.

    And yes, your mom’s boyfriend is very sweet.

  11. Sarah says:

    LILY- yea all of taylor swift songs are about boys but i still like her :)

  12. Sarah says:

    julie- i glad u got lanie and your mom’s boyfriend does sound nice:)
    like everybody said:) talk to your dad and be nice about ……….

  13. emma says:

    that sounded really fun julie … i’m glad you had a time to enjoy yourself after all of that hate in the air , it must be really hard to have parents who are divorced.

  14. sallie says:

    lucky duck, julie!!! is she pretty?

  15. Missy says:

    I love the Lanie doll. she is just to cute. my friend got to go to the american girl store yesterday and she told me about it and it sounded awesome. i can not wait till march when i go……….

  16. Cassandra says:

    i also just realized the first three dolls had bangs-why’s that???

  17. Lena says:

    For Sam it would have been fashionable to have bangs. For Molly, it could go either way, and Kirsten’s bangs are technically anachronistic, she wouldn’t have had them. It was just cheaper to get the same wig for the first 3 dolls, especially if they didn’t know if AG would catch on.

  18. Cassandra says:

    I noticed that a big problem with some of my curly haired dolls is that their hair is so short in the back that it isn’t even curly until the ends, is this a problem with Lanie???

  19. Cassandra says:

    huh, that’s interesting…thanks Lena!

  20. priscilla says:

    AAH!!!!!!! I WON A CONTEST AND I WON LANIE!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!! SHE IS SOOO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

  21. priscilla says:

  23. Kelly says:

    Horray Pircilla!

  24. priscilla says:

    Thanks kelly :)

  25. Ashleigh says:

    what contest was it priscilla, i dont understand?

  26. Julie says:

    Well, Yeah.. Sorry about you guys being Confused. I keep thinking that you know the situation.. it is pretty tough. I actually havent seen my dad in 4 weeks, and sadly, I am not upset!
    Yeah, Lanie is AHDORABLE!
    If you are wondering about getting her but not sure b/c of her bangs.. THEY ARE SO cute in real life! This pic makes them look weird.. :)

  27. Julie says:

    Lena- Yeah, I have talked to my Dad, but he always BLAMES BLAMES BLAMES! Like, we talked about talking on the phone, and we didn’t get any calls. The next time we see him he said, “I was seeing if you’d call me!” If he wanted to talk to us, he’d call!
    Oh well.
    Thanks for the comments guys! :D

  28. Beth says:

    O my goodness I want Lanie but Im not allowed ti get more dolls

  29. Ashlee says:

    Lanie is soooo freakin adorable! Oh my goshness! My big sister (she’s 16) has six dolls. Her dolls are Kit, Samantha, Josefina, Ivy, Julie, and Felicity. I have four dolls, Kailey, Marisol, Mia, and Sonali. I want to try and collect all of the GOTYs, but then I’ll have to go on ebay and stuff. My b-day is on Saturday so maybe I’ll get a doll or a giftcard or something!! My b-day was supposed to be March 13th, but I was born super early.

  30. Ashlee says:

    Oh, and Julie, my parents are divorced too and I live with my dad and step family on the other side of america while my mom and sister are on the other. i feel your pain! its funny because julie the doll has divorced parents too

  31. Ashlee says:

    You could just get her outfits and stuff Beth. That’d be almost as good as Lanie herself! I love to get new outfits for my girls and then make up photo stories.

  32. priscilla says:

    Ashleigh- the contest was this thing where you had to click on these emails they sent u and my mom clicked them(it was on her email cuz i dont have one) and then i answered these questions about myself and nature and stuff. I’m not sure if there were other winners or not? but yeah i love lanie!! shes really pretty and her bunny lulu is sooo cute too lulus cuter in person :)

  33. priscilla says:

    Julie- yeah lanies bangs are really cute too :)

  34. AG&FAN says:

    If you see Lanie’s bangs in YouTube they look adorable.
    It dosen’t look as if she has bangs at all if they put it on the side.

  35. Cassandra says:

    i haven’t got her yet! :( I’m saving up right now. I don’t love her PJs, but I like them enough to want them…I hope there will be more to her collection over the course of the year though

  36. Cassandra says:

    Didn’t both Chrissa and Mia have a winter outfit in November?
    Mia a skate dress
    Chrissa a winter outfit?

  37. Ashlee says:

    Yes, they did have winter outfits that came out in late fall. Maybe Lanie will too. Also, Mia had some additional hair accessories.

  38. Lena says:

    Nicki got her ski outfit and skis, Mia got a white skate dress & hair set, and Chrissa got her snow pants and snowshoe set.

  39. joely says:

    hey well hi i think lannie is so adorable i love her can anybody give me some advice about getting her?

  40. karis says:

    More LANIE STUFF. YAY! For people who have Lanie acsessories, does the laptop have real keys thet you can “type” with?

  41. Lena says:

    What I hear is that the laptop’s keys are like calculator keys, but the laptop itself is a piece of plastic. It doesn’t work.

  42. AG&FAN says:

    I’m thinking about Lanie’s camping outfit.
    With long pants…

  43. Cassandra says:

    too bad about the laptop…
    but it’s a great accessory for the doll.

  44. Cassandra says:

    yes, i remember the hair accessories for mia. i have high hopes for lanie’s additional outfit.

  45. Cassandra says:

    i really like Lanie’s story

  46. Rachel says:

    AG&Fan- Lanie doesn’t have a camping outfit. She has a butterfly and a gardening outfit.
    Are you talking about the JLY camping outfit?

  47. Ava says:

    Well, it’s odd that she has a camper but not a camping outfit.

  48. priscilla says:

    Lena- I have lanielaynes computer and it doesnt work. bummer lol but its really cute and has screen clings. :)

  49. AG&FAN says:

    Wow. Lanie’s camper is huge. I just saw it on YouTube

  50. AG&FAN says:

    And well…There will be another GOTY every year,so AG has lots of chance to make AA GOTY. So here’s other ideas for another GOTY:
    1.African-American girl who discovers her culture and everything-and it kind
    of reminds me of Jazz.
    2.Girl who likes designing and drawing.(Remember,Chrissa was crafty girl
    and her story was all about bullying so AG never made a girl who likes this kind of art.)
    3.Girl whose family is multi-cultured. 4.Maybe girl who deals with middle school. I know it’s odd for AG to make an 11 or 12 year old girl for GOTY,but still.
    So this is all I have..
