This kid in China couldn't get a Labubu doll, so he caused damage worth $56,000 (Rs 40 lakhs) instead
While some call it scary and evil, others are simply fawning over it. The craze for Labubu dolls is getting out of hand, it seems. This kid from China, who was denied the elf-like creature, born a monster, from the Chinese toy maker Pop Mart, at a relative's home, chose violence and caused damage worth over $56,000 (over Rs 40 lakhs). Here's what happened. The family had visited their relative's place, where the toddler noticed a Labubu doll adorned with jewelry. The toy belonged to an influencer popularly known as Little Azheng or Tail Brother. The kid threw a tantrum when he was denied the doll, and threw a remote control in anger. He ended up shattering a mirrored glass ceiling worth US$14,000 and an Italian crystal chandelier worth US$41,000. What's worse is that the boy refused to apologise for the damage caused. The boy's parents offered only $2,500 (Rs 2 lakh) as compensation, which is far less than the actual damage. They said that they were poor and could only afford this much. They asked the influencer not to post about the incident on social media to protect the boy's image. Furthermore, they requested him not to involve the court and take a legal route Tail Brother agreed to accept the partial compensation because he had no other option. However, he criticised the family's use of kinship pressure and low offer. Celebs and their Labubu's (a thread 🧵)Celebs can't get enough of these fluffy designer handbags — Rihanna, Dua Lipa, and even David Beckham are now flexing Labubu dolls as the ultimate status what's going on 👇 Meanwhile, the Labubu doll craze has become a global phenomenon, especially after celebrities like K-pop star Lisa and Rihanna were seen with it. The elf-like figures known for their quirky, wide smiles and toothy grins have been created by Hong Kong artist Kasing Lung and marketed by Chinese toy giant Pop Mart. 4/Dua Lipa? Also on was seen at JFK with a Labubu dangling from her designer bag. These creatures are everywhere. Originally priced at US$20 to US$40, Labubu dolls are now reselling for thousands of dollars. Some of the rare editions have been sold for over US$150,000 at auctions. This has led to Pop Mart's profits surging over 350% in the first half of 2025, and a market valuation soaring above US $40 billion.

Manushi Chhillar on stereotypes of coming from pageant world: Instead of focusing on breaking notions, I just do my job
Actor and former Miss World Manushi Chhillar is a handful of films old in Hindi film industry and she has dabbled with both glamerous and non glamerous roles so far. Did she have to fight any stereotypes during her transition into films? Manushi Chhillar made her acting debut in 2022. "If someone else has a preconceived notion about where they can fit you, I think instead of focusing your energy on breaking that notion, you just keep doing your job in best possible manner and chase the kind of work that you want to do and everything will fall into place," says the actor, who has was recently seen in the film Maalik, alongside Rajkummar Rao. Manushi adds, "Whatever people have to say it's their opinion but For me personally when I transitioned into films I didn't feel like I had to do something very different or I had to be a certain way. I dress according to my job. I was a girl doing her job as Ms World and I am a girl doing my job as an actor now." Also Read | Tehran Cast Guide: From John Abraham to Manushi Chhillar, who plays what in geopolitical action-thriller With her transition into films, she joins the league of several actors like Sushmita Sen, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and others who were former beauty pageant winners and later entered films. However, Manushi doesn't agree with beauty pageants images of being only about glamour and looking pretty. Breaking the myth, she says, "The first thing is that when people say that world of beauty pageant is of glamour, I do not agree with that. It's that one night in 365 days when a girl is crowned, which you see on stage." The actor, who won the 2017 Miss World pageant, says, "The whole year what you are doing is not a very glamorous job. I was working with a charity called Beauty With A Purpose and we were constantly traveling to the remotest areas of different parts of the world and that's not a very glamorous job. So technically what I had to do as a Miss World was not just wear a crown, dress up and get photographed. Probably the media covers that one night, which gets most spoken about."
