Labubu dolls have become celebrities’ favorite new item.

Labubu began as a female character in Hong Kong-based author Kasing Lung‘s picture book series, The Monsters, in 2015.

These plush toys, sold exclusively by the Chinese toy company Pop Mart, are equal parts cute and scary. While there are hundreds of variations of Labubu, the standard design features rabbit ears, expressive eyes and a smile with sharp teeth.

Additionally, Labubu is sold in blind boxes, meaning you don’t know which version you’re getting until you open the packaging, making some of these monsters very exclusive.

Labubu may seem like an inexpensive and accessible toy, but they sell out quickly and can go for hundreds of dollars on the resale market.

Rihanna

Many people love Labubu as a bag charm, and that seems to be the case for the nine-time Grammy Award winner.
