Stereotypical Barbie in Barbie: The Movie is the original white, blue-eyed, blonde-haired, elongated-legged, cellulite-free, slender Barbie. She lives in a pink house without a job. She only attends parties every night and has Girls’ Night. There are many Barbies in Barbie Land who have different professions, but what the stereotypical Barbie does is "stay pretty." 

Actress Margot Robbie, who played Barbie, stated that despite the negative connotation of the word, it was necessary (to be a part of the movie) because she is already putting parameters around herself that she will later step out of and break free from. She needs to start there, referring to herself as Stereotypical Barbie, because she's already putting herself down without realizing it.
