MN Doll Named Rosie Finds New Life as an Instagram Celebrity
A doll named Rosie once donated to a Goodwill store in Bemidji has found a new life as an Instagram celebrity.
They say that one man's trash is another man's treasure. In this case, it seems that one man's (or, more likely, woman's) old doll is an internet sensation thanks to her own adventurous spirit and eye for advanced selfies.
An Instagram account named MyDollRosie follows the adventures and high life of a doll named Rosie. "I was living at the Goodwill in Bemidji, MN for a bit before I moved into an apartment downtown," reads Rosie's Instagram bio. "Let’s adventure."
Her photos reveal an exciting life of travel, concerts, festivals, fashion, food and booze. Lots of booze.
