After Valeria Lukyanova became an Internet sensation last year, Vice released a documentary film on Monday, titled My Life Online: Space Barbie, about the human Barbie doll.

The video description claims she is not a real girl. Instead, she is a "time-traveling spiritual guru whose purpose is to save the world from the clutches of superficiality and negative energy." It also says that Lukyanova delivers a life-changing philosophy to the human race by "physical perfection."

Vice's documentary-maker Will Fairman decided to travel to Ukraine to film the 23-year-old model because he believed "there had to be something more behind it all." "I followed it up and discovered she was a new age opera composer and gave seminars on spirituality," Fairman told MailOnline.

Lukyanova, who has a construction-working husband, thinks she comes from another planet and has even seen a psychiatrist because she was hearing voices and seeing different human beings. After reading controversial stories written about her, she believed she was "an energy vampire," because she enjoyed their negative reactions.

Valeria Lukyanova: Did She Have Plastic Surgery?

"She's not a fraud," Fairman said. "She genuinely believes she's from another planet. 100 percent. She's not making any money from her life - not even from the seminars she gives - which is originally why I thought she was doing this."

It has been rumored that she underwent numerous plastic surgery procedures for a pinched waist and perfect face after which Lukyanova turned into a real-life Barbie doll, who she considers is the "most perfect woman." But she has denied having surgery.

'She is paranoid about not looking perfect. I don't know exactly where it comes from," Fairman added. "She seems to have a quite a lot of issues about her physical self, and is incredibly fixated with her image."

The 20-minute documentary shows viewers another side to the Russian-speaking Barbie- one that isn't just about perfection.

"I come from a place where only love and joy exist," she said. "But I noticed the media is only interested in negativity: show someone in a bad light, show someone's mistakes...There are hate blogs and communities about me who post bad pictures about me and try and worsen my mood."

Despite those who despise Lukyanova, the Ukrainian star now has 877k Facebook fans and over 7,500 Twitter followers.
